Our solace found in tranquil isolation
No longer burdened by the need to coexist
But in our solitude, we've grown to dread all others
Who would seek to infiltrate our empire?
Our way of life it will prevail
Harmony only in silence
We will defend
The life we have created
By any means we must employ
On the horizon, a silhouette of bodies
The sounds of chaos as they near our dominion
They seek salvation, believing us their saviors
But they will find redemption always comes at a price
We watch them enter, awash with hope
But confusion sets in when they find no signs of life
In but an instant, we make our presence known
They collapse one by one, our strength unmatched
Cages built from bones await them
Reminders of those who came before
They shriek and plead for mercy
But noiseless peace will soon embrace them all
A single offer,
A final chance at unity
Is made to all with the flash of a blade
An oath is not a guarantee
The choices made as moments pass
The quietude is fast approaching
Those who refuse
Are ended without hesitation
While the enlightened few show no fear
Our past erased
Our voices cast aside
As we accept a new life bathed in peace
The action takes but a moment to perform
Incisions made as the final sounds emit
Gasps of regret, but it is much too late
Silence returns, and balance is restored
