1. Abominable Pastiche
Beyond the misty mountains
Al-Hazred stirs
From strange aeons of sleep
"One ring to rule them all"
So reads the Necronomicon
Chtulu wrests the crown from the evil wizard Saruman
Sauron avatar of Nyarlathotep lies in wait
Keen blade of the righ-wraiths wrought with Elvish skill
and Eldritch hate
From far beyond the stars the elder ones arise
The battle rages on, darkening the skies
2. Secret of the Nocturnal Weaver
3. The Queen's Gambit
Warriors poised for battle
Rank, file, diagonal
White facing black
Enemies...attack!
Fianchetto!
Defend the king
Murderous bishop menacing
Knight fork from below
Elegant thrust, crushing blow
Virulent skewer smites and pins
Mate threat!
But brute force never wins
Stave off, fight back
Unmask the counterattack!
Pawn takes rook!
Interpose, extricate
Lure, force, eliminate
Capture, seize
Adverse king en prise!
Feel the cold embrace of the Black Queen
4. Blood on the Plains
A freezing fog
Shrouding in uncaring greyness
The verdant trees
Became glistening claws of ice
The silent prarie
Gathered at the edge of night
Piercing the flesh
Pain as sacrament
Violet tresses submerged
Beneath a veil of frost
A lull in the air silences the drawing bow
Coiling, appeasing fury
before the monstrous daughter of earth
Thunder of mighty hooves
Cleaves the earth in two
Scalps of your enemies
Blood on the plains
Sweet as wine
Wild goddesses split the sky
Seeking vengeance for murder
Breaker of horses
In a sacred navel of soil
