The reason, being able to weave lies and murder to drive madness through thought to powerful divine power, isn't that a powerful symbol of strength?
So they yearn, endlessly yearn for all of this.
"Praise my lord Shirek, He is the supreme, the most powerful god, unstoppable, unchallengeable!"
"Praise my lord Shirek, He is the supreme, the most powerful god, unstoppable, unchallengeable!"
"Praise my lord Shirek, He is the supreme, the most powerful god, unstoppable, unchallengeable!"
Shirek's Death March called out Shirek's true name over and over, accompanied by the calls, their spirit and energy unified as one.
