lyrics

The Wanderer unwillingly woke himself up with a shiver. He gathered his senses and looked around. Something felt different this morning. The air tasted clearer, and an odd blue shaft of light shone down from the hole above.

Suddenly, there was great commotion outside the cells; the crack of broken wood, the rhythm of someone falling violently down steps. Everything moved quickly from there. His cell door burst open with a flash, but whoever did so had quickly gone on to the next. The Wanderer instinctively rushed for his escape as fast as his deteriorating muscles would allow. Outside he bumped in to other hurried prisoners, all rushing to the city’s surface.

The dimly lit streets were still silent as everyone darted between alleyways, the only direction being forward, away. It didn’t take long to reach what was the northern wall and flee beyond that. The haggard group sprinted as far as they could before surrendering to their lack of breath, slowing as they distanced themselves from civilisation, until they could stop at the forest edge…

If nostalgia for an age where creatures of myth walked together with the children of men had a soundtrack, this album would be it. Also, a touching reminder that we can forego wealth and power for wilderness and freedom, if we so choose. emanuele127

I met Fogweaver through Vedurnan and, later, Magelight. This more energetic take on their music is wonderful and exciting, a compelling twist bearing their unique signature. emanuele127
