And lo, when the imperium marches against gul-kothoth, then dark sorceries shall enshroud the citade lyrics

[chapter 1: the voyage of the sorcerer]
the war between the imperium and the allied vyrgothian kingdoms had raged
for years. beginning as minor disputes over border territories, the conflict
had swiftly escalated into a full-scale bloody war, a vast series of epic
campaigns, fervently perpetua ted by the emperor koord and the over-king of
vyrgothia, both eager to smite their traditional ancestral foes and to win
great glory and the adulation of their people by seizing victory in battle.
recent months had seen the forces of the imperium display a staggering degree
of tactical mastery and battle prowess, contemptuously crushing the vyrgothian
armies in a series of great battles, 'til at last, following the slaughterous
rout of the fields of kai-vorg, the empire's finest fighting force, the fame
d and far-feared legion of the ebon tiger, stood unopposed not five day's
march from mighty gul-kothoth, the greatest and most ancient fortress-city in
all the vyrgothian kingdoms. the legion of the ebon tiger could not easily
count their numerous and r esounding victories, and their commander, the
legendary warlord baalthus vane, made it clear to the emperor that he was
eager to press on deep into the enemy's lands and seize the prize which
awaited him; the siege and capture of ancient gul-kothoth! and yet the emperor
koord did not order the legion to march, for disturbing information had of
late been relayed to him by his spies in the vyrgothian royal dire
rumours abounded that the vyrgothian mages had at last discovered the ancient
arcane r ites which would unlock the aeons-fettered power of the dread
obsidian crown, a fearsome mystical artefact countless thousands of years old,
a black-jewelled circlet believed once to have been borne upon the immortal
brow of the legendary shadow-king him self! and it was written in legend,
that should the ancient spells of might entwining the artefact be reawakened,
then incredible near limitless ruinous power would thus be bestowed upon any
army carrying the crown into had the mages of vyrgoth ia truly
ascertained the time-lost conjurations required to empower the obsidian crown,
hidden for centuries deep within the marble vaults of its ebon citadel? eager
to know the truth, the emperor dispatched his most powerful sorcerer across
the great in land sea to the court of the over-king, under the pretence of
offering the terms for the vyrgothian surrender. he was bade use all his
sorcerous skills to discover the a truth soon made clear by the
disdainful refusal of the imperium's terms, an d the grimly fearsome message
given the sorcerer by vyrgothia's master wizard, with which to return to the
emperor: "and lo, when the imperium marches against gul-kothoth, then dark
sorceries shall enshroud the citadel of the obsidian ;
[the wizards of vyrgothia:]
darkly bejewelled circlet of night,
crown of the elder king,

unfettered at last the trinity of might,
the sceptre, the sword, and the ring.
[the sorcerer:]
i stand upon the oaken planks of this great ship, (the splendid flagship of
the imperium's navies)
gazing at moon-gleam dancing on the vast, dark
(and in my mind i behold) black crystals ensorcellment!
i am enthralled by this nighted
for i know that the slumbering sorceries
of the shadow-king's crown shall soon be
and as i return to my emperor (shackled to such woefully grim tidings),
my spirit is borne upon the leathern wings of a great
[chapter 2: the march of the imperium]
[the emperor:]
call forth the ogre-mage of the black lake
and the swordmaster of kyrman'ku,
let them speak the words which
enshrined for countless centuries, within its darksome citadel,
five score and ten against the tiger, (curse) the black crown of the
shadow-king!
by all the dark gods, i swear i'll not be dethroned!
a seething forest of blackened blades,
a churning sea of ebon war-chariots,
a searing storm of flaming shafts,
all this havoc and more shall i unleash against my
into battle! the legion shall the fall of gul-kothoth is nigh!
The legion of the ebon six thousand elite warriors of the
imperium, the pride of the emperor's bolstered by heavy cavalry, and
a squadron of deadly scythed further reinforced by the imperial
frontier army of one hundred tho usand highly trained spearmen and
and never has this force met its match in battle or
[baalthus vane:]
our banner flies ever glorious, undefeated we stand, steeped in victory.
the iron phalanx, six thousand strong, our ever-honed blades, the tiger's
gleaming claws.
pride of the empire, scourge of the vraii,
masters at turonium, and kai-vorg.
smiters of the southern host, routers of the horde, bane of the over-king, we
march to war!
and so, the emperor himself rides to rendezvous with baalthus vane,
accompanied by his sorcerous aide. the legion of the ebon tiger reaches
gul-kothoth at dusk on the fifth day of their march from the fields of
kai-vorg, halting upon the great arid plan which stretches before the city,
the huge dust cloud sent up by their massed arrival obscuring the dying embers
of the setting sun. as the vast army begins to make camp, arraying their
splendid tents and banners, and assembling their gargantuan siege-wag ons,
the emperor stands gazing at the huge brooding walls and colossal cyclopean
gates of the city-fortress before him, vowing that a torrent of red slaughter
shall befall gul-kothoth, regardless of any sorcerous trinkets the vyrgothians
may possess, and that the over-king shall pay dearly for his sublime
arrogance. and twelve leagues distant, an army of five score and ten, bearing
the obsidian crown, approaches the
