Parallax Descends

Stranded and bewildered
Surrounded by
Aurelian Hue
Seemingly lifeless, drained by an unknown force
A land displaying prosperity cites a spirit
Forlorn
Time presently remains in this land of secrecy

On the horizon auspiciously
Stationed an
Archaic monolith
A spire remarkably strikes the heaven's apex
Within the essence of dilapidated architecture
Metropolis influenced
Prepotency, but what of it's people?

Semblance of this place
Appears to take hold
Beckoning firmly, reality succumbs
Visions from era's heated discord
Former dominion transmits
Torment by Enigma of its past

Objective to locate a viable domain
Gargantua led the search to this place
A supernatural infection of the squadron's minds
Intent to reclaim vetoed by destination itself

Failure to acquire
Crestfallen control
How can inactive
And lifeless oppose
Through ruptures in space
Disjunctions in time
Somehow this redemption
Feels recognized

Presence of this place has raised
Many
Questions
Visions from the past, yet present among them
No way to communicate with this
Parallel
Timeline
Perplexed at contingencies of being deranged

Question all there was to detect
A mirror of concurrent truth
Shrine to a failed objective
The annex that could not arise

Arise, Arise!
