| READ THE LYRICS!! its obvious that its about the fall of an empire iamsquirrel is right... maybe the start of the story is that... all you have to do is read black metal lyrics to find the meaning, its served to you on a plate... i love that. | |

| The lyrics don't seem to fit in with the song, its about a king who lost his empire, and hes just walking around moping, the band play extremly fast as if they are emulating the sounds of a battle. Still my fave emperor song though. | |

| If you look at the lyrics to their other albums, this could be a continuation of stuff from Anthems to the Welkin & In the Nightside Eclipse; the fall of the empire of the narrator from those album's lyrics. If you look at them as one story, In the Nightside Eclipse sets up an exposition for the story, Anthems tells of the rise of the narrator's empire, and Prometheus tells of his downfall and death. | |
