Before the Key, Part 4 - The Path of Trials

[starting immediately with a very dragging, whining piccolo bass, 3 sekonds late a harsh electric guitar is added, which cuts through and takes over the soundscape, dominating it, then both harmonize and form an "aesthetic death metal unity"] [Verse 1 (False-cord growl – Bruder/Hammerbruder)] Through frozen halls and shattered stone The trials rise, the path unknown Each step a test, each breath a fight Through endless dark… we seek the light Raven Shadow strike, yet never kill Stormhvalr aids us with his will Every riddle… every frozen gate Shapes the hands that dare create [Pre-Chorus: Lead: female brutal false cord, Assist: male brutal false cord] The northern frost whispers truth Every trial a glimpse of youth Every step a silent vow The frozen path begins… here and now [Chorus (Dual vocals – Lead: female brutal false cord, Assist: male brutal false cord] The Path of Trials… we endure Through ice and shadow, fate is pure Every step… a destiny The key will rise… and set us free The Path of Trials… the world awaits Every choice unlocks the gates Through frost and storm… the brave survive And only those with heart… arrive [Verse 2 (False-cord growl – junge Kriegerin)] Through icy winds, the echoes scream Every vision… every dream Tall women Blue guides, yet pays the cost Each spell a gift… each gift is lost Brother beside… the hammer swings Through frozen halls, the silence rings Every shadow, every lie Cannot deter what cannot die [Outro: Battle theme, vanish in last drumsolo]
