Scarlet moonlight's shining Through the old house's stained glass Blueblood's waltzing As the worker's bones gather dust Wearing a red mask Hero stepped inside Of a chamber lush Crammed with royal pride Seven rooms aligned Each of its own kind From the last one, black A clock midnight struck Clock's overwhelming sound burst through the hallway Stunned ensemble for a second stopped to play, still deafened by its roar Seth was approached by an odd-looking stranger Wolf-masked he warned him of a looming danger And led the way to talk behind closed doors Foreign in this house of laughter Seth was following the man By the pitch-black chamber's entry Into Edgar Poe he ran This acquaintance raised some questions But there was no time to waste Tormented by his stark impatience Stranger shut the door in haste "So, you've got the letter, surely?" And Seth answered with a nod "For your life we're afraid truly To kill you lord-regent plots Power-hungry mind of his Has set up a wicked scheme What would truly bring him bliss Is the monarch's final scream Your death would give an impulse to the feud Of Raven Cult and monarch guarded by our will So, if I were you I certainly would Lay low in Blackwood, outside of Lonehill We are short of time Make your way out" "Omnes una manet nox" Cultist said to him But Seth didn't know what it should mean "You're not Sir Warren aren't you?" Were last words of his Right before Seth slit his throat and And through the open window he fled And when the body was found and the feast was inevitably spoiled And panic and fear were spread as a plague Poe declared: "Darkness and decay and the red death held illimitable dominion over all"
