"El'ven... ta'nar... Rao ven'sol..."
⸻
They called me shadow... a mirror, a lie,
Yet I am flesh, I bleed, I cry.
Born of sun but starless skies,
A life of silence, of stolen ties.
She smiles in warmth I'll never feel,
Her light, her love - a bitter seal.
Why must the world bow to her name,
While I am left to drown in shame?
⸻
I am the fire she refuses to see,
The storm unchained, the dark decree.
My wrath is truth, my sorrow steel,
The life denied, the hand they steal.
⸻
Reflected in shadow, broken by sun,
I am the wrong, the lost, the undone.
Her light blinds, but I endure,
The child unloved, the mirror impure.
I rise in darkness, I claim my pain,
The world shall kneel, or burn in my reign.
Reflected in shadow, I am complete,
The House forgotten, the twin she defeats.
⸻
I remember whispers, the chains of home,
A world that left me endlessly alone.
Every echo, every fleeting glance,
Spoke the truth: I'd never have a chance.
Yet I am real - my fury, my tears,
A life forged in sorrow, in shadow and fears.
She is my twin, my stolen sun,
And now, at last, our duel's begun.
⸻
"Na'so El'ara... ven'ka Rao... ta'ren..."
⸻
Reflected in shadow, fire in my hand,
I will reclaim what this world demands.
She is the sun, yet I am the night,
The wrongs they made, now I will write.
Broken by love, betrayed by fate,
The world shall bow - or face my hate.
Reflected in shadow, I will be known,
The child unloved... now stands alone.
⸻
"Rao... witness... El... remember..."
