"You see me now, a veteran of thousand psychic wars.”
Great battles between one against all in worlds of minds rages on with in me.
I serve to live, I live to control, I control to protect, I protect for Duty compels me.
Ife is sacred, the Great Grandfather, Grandmother that we inhabit, the four winds and all my relations speak to me.
Borne from death, before time had meaning, our tribe prayed for a guardian to protect them those who would harm them.
My love for them had no boundaries, during my transformation the Great Spirit charged me to answer their plea.
Neither nomad nor spirit I am.
Understand me fully for I have heard their words, It is my will that I am the horror of our enemies.
My reverence for the spirits, those who remain of my tribe, and those tribes I chose to ally with bids me to take their will from those who wish us harm.
“I've been living on the edge so long, where the winds of limbo roar”
Through out the ages I have met creatures like me but not as me.
Much has blood been spilled in the name of might, god, or truth.
Minds have been destroyed, lives crippled, hearts shattered, souls drank of those who challenge the spirits purposes.
“And I'm young enough to look at, and far too old to see
All the scars are on the inside”
Each death takes a part of me as I take my enemies power.
My form seldom changing, the source mirrors the constipations, experiences continue to age me.
Woe is to those who attempt to cleanse this beast. My power vested in me by that which created me.
“I'm not sure that there's anything left of me”
Conflict is constant, change is inevitable, and my force is as it should be.
My path, I take by my will, on which we will meet briefly.
“Friend or Foe” ; man, beast, being, or spirit in time we will be of one.
Humanity I honor, True Life I concede its due respect, but to be a true ‘Human Being’ again is my destination.
