For months, it stayed in shackles for the great Iris. Tortured by the blight of the Sun, the Hexeth endured. The wounds he bares are now within itself, tainted by the powers and essences of the Earth. It eventually became powerful enough to breach the cornea that kept it contained and ended its enslavement with a blow of a thousand shards.
Exhausted by torture and lack of funneling; the Hexeth decided to hibernate out on the Earth - deep underneath the green weds of Summer. Months passed as it rejuvenated its strength. It knew many obstacles was on its way to Xsh'un.
The piercing light, the steps towards home.
In distance, the moon started to smile for the sky,
bringing the perfect temperature for our traveler to leave.
Since its first encounter with a human, not a single face showed up to the Hexeth. It started to believed the creature was unique, that this place was only weds and trees. It knew the distance it had to travel until the Gates of Zaarth, the great portal from home. The portal that also misled it.
It is through its microscopic nostril that the creature smelled its way to the ocean. It is through the night and with luck that it didn't cross a thing. Inside the great vast, deep into the abyss of the Ocean, the gates were open.
Ready for another temporal collision, the Hexeth swam safely from the Sun. It didn't take long before the magnitude of the complex revealed itself in the mists of the abyss. It approached the magnificent gates, opening them with all fourteen tendrils (rarely the Hexeth had to use strength for anything).
And as it entered the portal, the implosion of the collision created a breach in its programmed* travel to Xsh'un, bending its way back. It is in a flash of light that it lost total control on itself, leaving its body floating near a grasping breach in Time.
Unfortunately, it ended up swallowed and transported somewhere no night ever lend its drape on the sand - where the light open up scars from the Eye. It woke up in great pain, its scales turned black from the burns of the Sun. It then quickly found cover at the back of great dunes - suffocating from the heat, looking for a sign of hope...
Note:
(*) With the Hexeth's race being mostly extinct, our last traveler prepared its voyage on Earth - and other planets - in quest of lost family.

PSA: if there was an album you heard a couple years ago and thought it was ok, listen to it again and you might love it.
That's what happened to me with this album. I cannot fathom why it didn't stick with me back then. Same thing happened with Decoherence's Unitarity for that matter. Matten

What a BEAST of an album. When it comes to blending black metal and mathcore, these guys and Hoplites are the clear leaders of the pack. This album is sheer annihilation of everything in it's path. Pure chaos and destruction. And it is beautiful. Ryan
