Son of Erebus

Heir of shadows listen well,

To the prophecy I foretell.

I know you stand proud,

And many have bowed.

Your time has shone,

But now you are not alone.

I see envy within your eyes,

Planning this intruder's demise.

But hold fast, son of Erebus,

Not everything is amiss.

A new adventure has been declared,

Thus the daughter of nightmares has been spared.

Distaste between you is obvious,

However a laugh above is heard from the love goddess.

Both of you are unaware,

Of the wager taking place upstairs.

Lead well, Khalcifer,

Teach them not to hinder.

Perhaps someday I'll learn to bow,

But don't get your hopes up, pal.
