lyrics
The spirits had helped her to ground. Of this she was certain. Of the raiders, not one was left alive. All about her lay the burning wreckage of their air boat. As for the treasure, it has spilled into the sea when she cracked the hull with her spear, its point replaced with the Fang of the Fathers. Now she feared she was no better off than the dead men twisted and burned in the wreckage around her.
The island was devoid all life. She wandered for a time, her stomach slowly tightening with hunger, her lips cracking with thirst. On the third day, surely delusion had found her, for she happened upon a flight of stairs leading down into the sea. With nothing keeping her above ground, she escaped the heat of the sun and disappeared into the nether world.
She delved down for many days, her path lighted by the glow of The Fang. She drank from rivulets of water running down the cold stone, and ate of the fungal growths sprouting from walls and of the strange insects that skittered across the stones of the endless steps. Then one day, only the fathers knew how many, she found herself at the bottom of the stairs and in a world beyond all imagining. she no longer needed the light of The Fang, for the forest before her glowed with almost blinding intensity. Before her, a cavern expanded to almost imperceptible distances. Massive columns grew from the floor's living rock and disappeared into the darkness above, whilst mushroom festooned stalagmites clustered all about in a forest of stone and fungus. The woman wandered for a time, the beauty of this place intoxicating. So much so, that she hadn't realized she was being watched.

Dynamic, mysterious and percussion heavy Dungeon Synth. Both masterfully conceived and produced. Grimfather is a must own for fans of narrative driven Dungeon Synth and Fantasy Ambient.

I met Fogweaver through Vedurnan and, later, Magelight. This more energetic take on their music is wonderful and exciting, a compelling twist bearing their unique signature.
