Despoiler's Canticle

Despoiler's Canticle

by TacomaSquall

From the stars I came,
Seeking a feast of life –
Destruction in my wake –
To you have I come.

Living but not alive,
Bringer of death am I –
My names are legion –
To you, Jenova.

You tried to stop me,
Such noble sacrifice –
What shame for you Cetra,
It was all in vain.

Living but not alive,
Bringer of death am I –
My names are legion –
To you, Jenova.

A long, dreamless sleep –
I wait for the right time.
Soon, I will be forgotten –
Then, I shall return.

Living but not alive,
Bringer of death am I –
My names are legion –
To you, Jenova.

And, should I fail then,
Yet shall I linger.
For defeat is so brief –
And I am immortal.

Living but not alive,
Bringer of death am I –
My names are legion –
To you, Jenova.

To fight is futile –
For sooner or later,
The Planet shall be mine.
It is inevitable.
