Do you recline back into your mind, seeking peace
from the World and it's evils?
Do you see yourself as a single drop of water in a canal of lost hopes and dreams?
Dose the pain you feel control how you see the things that lies before your gnarled feet?
Are the ever-winding caverns of your mind the only sanctuary that you may linger in?
Is twilight the keeper of your lost soul that wanders the borders of life and death looking for fleeting memories of dawn?
Can you feel your blood turning cold as a winters ice upon a dieing rose?
Has your childish innocence been replaced by the painful truth of life?
Is life closing down upon you while death embraces you in its strong arms?
Has obsession consumed your every thought and destroyed your last, simple hopes?
The only person you have ever confided in left you on the edge of the abyss?
Living flesh posed a hindrance in obtaining what you truly desire?
My poor child of the forsaken, you cry into the lap of the Queen of Shadows.
A woman of deceit and lies that is robed in the garments of the darkness and controls the crawling inhabitants of this dieing World
Lady of the Moon and Empress of the Stars I be, a gem of the past and talisman of the future
What could you gain from me?
I, lover of hate and guardian of the fallen who rules from my throne of woven pain and misery
But my little boy, I see in you great strength and a heart as dark as night
Rise from your confusion and bask in the fading light
Learn the ways of your master, study the arts of manipulation, excel in the ways of the spoken word
I will guide you to your goal, to gain what you thought to be unattainable
Let my words be law, follow my every command until your delicate fingers bleed, gleaming eyes darken, sweet words turn bitter
Let reality disappear in the fading smoke
Forget all who cared for pitiful soul, cast them aside like a tear-stained cloth
Think of only of want you need, of only what you want, see it as the only thing that matters
Kite, look into my lifeless eyes, gaze into my greatest achievement
I have seen the meaning of life, I have witnessed the creation of life, I have heard the cry of pure ecstasy
Take my cold hand, feel the power it holds, savor the idea of it being yours
I shall lead you to the waters of truth and hope
Follow in my footsteps Kite, and you shall obtain what you so desire
The Key of Twilight is waiting for you; don't hesitate for it shall fade into the nothingness my little boy
I, Helba, shall take you to the shores of death and the banks of life
Just take my hand
