Artmancer's Epics: "The Path of Vader"

Lava roars like gods A young hero stands defiant Fire crowns his rage

Ash clings to his boots The river screams his true name Anakin still breathes

Blue blade cuts the smoke Brother faces brother now Love trembles, then breaks

Obi-Wan’s eyes plead Words fall short of destiny Mercy burns unheard

Heat bends the horizon Mirage forms behind his back A darker sun rises

Black armor in glow Not yet born, yet watching him Future casts its shadow

“I am more than fear” He shouts into the furnace The fire answers back

Anger feeds the flames Every loss becomes a chain Power tastes like grief

The Force twists its song Light fractures into command Hope drowns in magma

Behind him, Vader Breathes slow, mechanical night A galaxy kneels

Stars begin to dim Empires stir in distant dark Ash falls like snow

Anakin reaches Not for hands—but for control The choice seals itself

The river surges red Skin, faith, and name ignite Pain becomes a vow

From scream to silence A mask waits beyond the fire Man dissolves to myth

Lava cools to stone Only footsteps echo on The path of Vader
