Hallelujah(The Teostra Sermon)

Intro - Slow organ, cathedral reverb]
[Elder's Recess bells tolling in distance]

The elders speak of Judgment...
The tomes call it Pride...
But when the flames come down...
There's no place left to hide...

[Verse 1 - Organ only, clean vocals like a preacher]
Brothers and sisters, gather 'round
I've got a testimony that'll shake the ground
I saw a hunter walkin' down the golden reef
Thought he was strong, thought he was the chief
Carried his weapons, flash pods on his hip
Miasma jewels and a Health Boost tip
Walked right up to the sacred flame
Said "I've killed fifty of these, this is just a game"

[Chorus - Full band kicks in, heavy drums, choir vocals]
HALLELUJAH! IT'S BURNT TO ASH!
HALLELUJAH! SUPER-NOVA FLASH!
TELL ME HUNTER, ARE YOU SAVED?
OR JUST ANOTHER SOUL I'LL LAY TO GRAVE!

[Verse 2 - Guitar riffs under preaching vocals]
The Teostra don't need no weapons forged
Don't need no mantle, don't need no Lord
Just a cloud of dust and a fiery breath
That'll send your hunter straight to death
Lunastra's watching from the heated floor
She's my queen, and she wants some more
They call us tyrants, call us wild
But we've been here since you were a child

[Chorus - Bigger, more powerful]
HALLELUJAH! IT'S BURNT TO ASH!
HALLELUJAH! SUPER-NOVA FLASH!
TELL ME HUNTER, ARE YOU SAVED?
OR JUST ANOTHER SOUL I'LL LAY TO GRAVE!

[Bridge - Tempo drops, spoken word over soft organ]
[Preacher voice]
They think they can flash pod the truth away...
They think if they just stay close, they'll be okay...
But the flame aura builds... the dust starts to glow...
And the hunter learns... what the elders know...
[Whisper]
...you can't dodge the Judgment...

[Guitar Solo - Fiery, fast, tapping like flames dancing]

[Pre-Chorus - Building tension]
The wings spread wide... the head drops low...
The supernova's ready... to... GO!

[Chorus - Maximum intensity, double-time drums]
HALLELUJAH! IT'S BURNT TO ASH!
HALLELUJAH! SUPER-NOVA FLASH!
TELL ME HUNTER, WERE YOU SAVED?
[Band drops out completely]
...or just another soul I laid to grave?

[Outro - Organ fading, single bell toll]
[Echoed whisper]
The Emperor has spoken...
Go in peace...

[Final note - Faint laughter of Lunastra in the distance]
