1.	In Eons of Imperial Forsaking 05:28	lyrics
They will blind us, bind us to forever feel, The hatred of this generational curse. So let it fall, what we have built, Is nothing, nothing but a memory now. This imperial reign like a bloodstained mural, Of a utopia that is forever forsaking... ACT II: Divergent one from beyond, Thy time is neigh, abhor what was foretold, This curse plagues us with tragedy As we sing.. (Choirs: Do not forsake us) Echoes throughout and beyond, (Choirs: Listen to the wind) From eons forsaking, we plea you.. (Choirs: Do not forsake us)
2.	Elysium through Hierarchy 04:15	lyrics	buy track
Serenity in these fields, Such divine spirits still sing their song, And rest easy knowing, Their visions continue strong, Elysian exposure, A life time divine. Dreams are never over, Enlightenment is granted.. Where the light shines under this dome, Rays of splendor illuminate the path, To walk with the guardians of eternity, In these elysian fields.
3.	A Ruling of Undying Blight 05:34	lyrics	buy track
Rise above ascended one, Our empire has come, To a transformation, Of perpetual agony. In the fires our souls will burn, Influence of gluttony there will be, A ruling of an undying blight, Until the end.. I can see the horizon, Fire in the sky transforms, Our empire has fallen, Into the abyssal waters of the earth, A cold projection of destruction, Divinity will be abandoned, In this ruling of undying blight.
4.	Begone the Malediction of Perpetuity 06:13	lyrics	buy track
Tribulation befell us, Omens to the end Amid our renowned domain, Fate of descension.. Will you besiege the gates to the thereafter? Unseal the barrier between manifold realities, Dilapidated forever, sundered within. Hearsay of curses, with a famine of lust, Famine of death.. Begone, the gluttony of our once great utopia. Begone, the malediction.. Conquer conquer, the highest order, Serve the desire, Of humanity's undying flesh, Temptation to blind spiritual obedience, Of transformation in malediction of empires.

about

Long ago, the grand civilization of Atlantis succumbed to a decline that left the advanced empire to faction off, and face each other in a conflict of division that left them in ruin in the end... The tragedy of Atlantis is a mythos that echoes empires throughout centuries of humanity, a rise a decline and apocalyptic end, and one that continues to modern times...

This short EP is a collection of some songs written for Valiant in 2022, while I was intending to write a new album I've decided to start fresh on ideas on it but I did not want to scrap what I had done already... so this is that. This is the third EP, and first since 2018's "A Timeworn Oath" which was a collection of unreleased material. There will be more new music from Valiant in 2023!
