natecatalyst231 This album is amazing and builds so well off of their debut. The musicianship displayed on this record is outstanding, as the band proves they are a powerhouse in all sorts of dynamics. My favorite song is Sorcerer's Apprentice; I'll never forget when I heard it live and the heavy riff came in in the beginning. What a great way to close this thrash masterpiece! Banish Into Fable and Dragonspyre are some of my other favorites, but all of these tracks absolutely rip 🤘 Favorite track: Sorcerer's Apprentice.

Night it falls and magic calls Back to the land of dreams Enter through the portal to a place beyond reality Life is full of pain and cries But in this land I’m free Through the ancient ink I go To the world of fantasy Stories that you read Is where I will be Vanish through the page Leave reality Magic guides my way Through the ancient page Very soon, I’ll travel Banish into fable! Now and then, I see new things The horizon getting clear Dragons, wizards, orcs and trolls Dominion over magic here Fairy lights to guide my way Through the pain of hell and death The castle getting nearer I will fight until my final breath I have seen the end Far away my friend Quest before my eyes Reborn into this life Magic guides my way Through the ancient page Very soon, I’ll travel Banish into fable! (Joey solo) In this book I see a change This wasn’t what was on the page I am ink Papyrus flesh This chapter will not end Come alive, read my life Buried in the conscious mind Another world, another land This is where I stand (Joey solo) (Austyn solo) Magic guides my way Through the ancient page Very soon, I’ll travel Banish into fable! Magic guides my way Through the ancient page Very soon, I’ll travel Banish into fable!

Whispering a secret The secret of the tea I am the bruja of the leaves Fulfil your dark desires Anything you want Just take a look inside this cup Tasseography, I see Images that burn the leaves Show me things I don’t believe Images in the tea leaves You’re soul burns eternally I know the symbols I know the way The path you’re on will lead you to the lowest pits of flame You say I’m wicked But I know you’re wild So take another sip of tea And your soul will be defiled Tasseography, I see Images that burn the leaves Show me things I don’t believe Images in the tea leaves You’re soul burns eternally (Joey and Austyn duel lead) (Joey solo) (Austyn solo) Tasseography, I see Images that burn the leaves Show me things I don’t believe Images in the tea leaves

Time is just another way To say all things will pass and fade But even time can not slay The pride of knights who come to me Vain glory, I've seen it all For victory in the battle Potions fit for beast, not man You're a fool to think you can handle them I brew, Potions that aren't fit for you I have, No respect for knights, listen You don't know what you ask Potion Seller! Potion Seller! Potion Seller! Potion Seller! I know what it is you seek A potion for your victory But I don't want to hear a thing Your royal class of insolence Dragons can not handle them Let alone a mortal man So cry your tears and give me them I'll have a new ingredient I brew, Potions that aren't fit for you I have, No respect for knights, listen You don't know what you ask Potion Seller! Potion Seller! Potion Seller! Potion Seller! (Austyn solo) "You've had your say potion seller" "You're a rascal" "With no respect for knights" I brew Potions that aren't fit for you I have No respect for knights, listen You don't know what you ask "Why respect knights?" Potion Seller! "When my potions can do anything you can" Potion Seller! "My potions are fit for a beast" Potion Seller! "Not a man" Potion Seller!

I know there is a place Where the bones of dragons lie Where the hammer meets the anvil and the ghosts of old arise My quest has brought me here On the hunt for his dark soul Where could he be, when will he see, he’s lost all control Fire burns In this land Where the necromancer stands Raise the dead Wicked spells Changing fate He will rise Ancient being Awake from eternal sleep Feel the pain, light the flame Death awaits Turn the page! I know there is a spell To raise her from the dead With the help of the old dragon she will be reborn again Only is this dark land Can the wicked ways prevail The necro-touch and mummy dust, here I will not fail He will rise Ancient being Awake from eternal sleep Feel the pain, light the flame Death awaits Death will come, life will go ‘The Crown of Fire’, embers glow Cloak of black, wicked glare Face his wrath, Malistaire (Joey solo) (Joey solo) (Austyn solo) Fire burns In this land Where the necromancer stands Raise the dead Wicked spells Changing fate He will rise Ancient being Awake from eternal sleep Feel the pain, light the flame Death awaits Cast the spell!

“And suddenly there came from the sky a noise like the strong driving wind, And it filled the entire house in which they were. Then there appeared to them tongues as of fire, Which parted and came to rest on each one of them.” Acts 2:2-3 Life will come and life will go The joy you feel and the sorrow Gifts bestowed by the Ghost in the sky Fire burns and the old you dies Do not waste your life Ride the sea of time The ones who hold you back are the ones who can not help themselves Expel all your lies Do not live a wasted life You won’t find meaning in pride If you seek it you will find The tongues of fire burn and Ghost returns to the afterlife (Joey solo) Wisdom burns, the embers blaze The tongues of fire never fade On the wings of glory ride And pass the realms of death alive Do not waste your life Ride the sea of time The ones who hold you back are the ones who can not help themselves Expel all your lies Do not live a wasted life You won’t find meaning in pride If you seek it you will find The tongues of fire burn and Ghost returns to the afterlife (Orchestra) Do not live a wasted life You won’t find meaning in pride If you seek it you will find The tongues of fire burn and Ghost returns to the afterlife (Austyn solo)

The furnace of Mephisto is a hallowed hall of pain Where the witches dance and the demons laugh Eternal pain awaits The fate of those who don’t repent, who live their life in sin The dungeon of the castle Is where the afterlife begins Visions came before my eyes A journey to the other side Holes cut out the cavern walls Where my soul belongs I have seen the visions, I have seen the eternal night Souls that burn in Hell, those that can’t have eternal life I have seen the castle, I have seen the many rooms You must not get lost, lest you go back down to your doom “Let nothing disturb you, let nothing frighten you, all things are passing away…” Saint Teresa of Avila The layers of the castle will lead you to Heaven’s gate If a soul is pure and the dark is purged, this will be your fate Visions came before my eyes A journey to the other side Holes cut out the cavern walls Where my soul belongs I have seen the visions, I have seen the eternal night Souls that burn in Hell, those that can’t have eternal life I have seen the castle, I have seen the many rooms You must not get lost, lest you go back down to your doom (Joey solo) I have seen the visions, I have seen the eternal night Souls that burn in Hell, those that can’t have eternal life I have seen the castle, I have seen the many rooms You must not get lost, lest you go back down to your doom

Candlelight and spirits dance around the room tonight The moon shines through the window and still turns the wheel of time My master; he is sleeping, I dare not disturb his dreams But visions I have for myself, so I conjure quietly I’ve read the books of magic Consulted gypsy schemes And all for what? Cause all I want, to master sorcery But still he holds me back Still he holds the key Behind the door of wonder, I wonder what I’ll see Stars and Moon, I ponder you Teach my sorcery Let me kill my enemy with witchcraft and wizardry I hunger for magic spells Teach me wizardry In the morning, the Sun will rise A sorcerer, I will be (Joey solo) (The Sorcerer) “I see you, even though I sleep Pondering, questioning, in my dungeon deep Sorcery, wizardry, wishing to be free Casting spells, betray your master, Is this what you seek?” I am the sorcerer’s apprentice Truly a spectral menace Wizardry, my mastery I am the sorcerer’s apprentice Leaving you defenceless Wizardry, my mastery (Austyn solo)
