The Cleaver Sun

Album: Dominion of Ashes

"Good evening. We begin tonight with stunning news of global significance. In a joint announcement earlier today, the re-formed World Health Organization and the Vatican confirmed that a long-sought antidote to the plague has been found.

For years, the plague — engineered by the previous regime — has poisoned minds, torn families apart, and left entire nations divided in fear. Now, scientists say the nightmare may finally be coming to an end.

According to officials, the breakthrough came when the Vatican released sealed archives and closely-held genetic material, unlocking the key protein sequencing required to create the antidote. The remedy — already being hailed as ‘Cleaver Sun’ — is named for the protein’s odd cleaver shape. The Church would not provide any details on the source of the genetic material.

Officials stress that testing is underway and early results are ‘unprecedentedly positive.’ Distribution plans are already being prepared for immediate global rollout.

Tonight, the world breathes — not in fear, but in hope.”

Ash and shadow ruled the sky, the cities drowned in gray
Brother turned on brother, all the light had slipped away
But from the ruin’s embers, a fire has begun
A blade ignites the heavens — behold the Cleaver Sun

Rise, Cleaver Sun — cut through the endless night
Burn the plague to nothing with your searing light
Hope has come, the darkness undone
Shine on, the blazing Cleaver Sun

Fear was once the master, chains around the soul
The tyrant’s cure was poison, control the only goal
But now the world is waking, united voices run
Across the broken nations — we march beneath the Sun

Rise, Cleaver Sun — cut through the endless night
Burn the plague to nothing with your searing light
Hope has come, the darkness undone
Shine on, the blazing Cleaver Sun

Shining steel, eternal flame
No tyrant’s hand can cage your name
Carve the sky, let freedom roar
The Cleaver Sun will rise once more

Rise, Cleaver Sun — cut through the endless night
Burn the plague to nothing with your searing light
Hope has come, the darkness undone
Shine on, the blazing Cleaver Sun
Shine on, the blazing Cleaver Sun
