The Gods Stayed Silent So I Took the Cursed Blade | Dark Fantasy Song

He kept the oath until the oath stopped meaning anything. The villages were burning. The gods never answered. So he reached for the weapon his temple feared and became the thing standing between the kingdom and extinction. The problem isn’t that the cursed blade changed him. It’s that somewhere between monster hunting and saving the realm, he started enjoying what it let him become. When the Ashen King finally falls, he feels neither justice nor relief—only the realization that he liked the fight. “The Gods Returned My Oath” is for anyone who stopped waiting to be saved and then wondered what surviving had turned them into. https://medievalconfessions.com/ — stream Medieval Confessions on your preferred platform. #OathbreakerPaladin #DnDMusic #DarkFantasyMusic #MedievalConfessions 'The Gods Returned My Oath' I found the blade beneath the ice Where old kings went to disappear Buried deep with broken crowns And all the names we do not hear The runes were worn, the steel was black The edge still hungry after years I took it home and fed it blood And watched it wake beneath my hands The temple called it blasphemy The elders called it ancient shame They spoke of chains and sacred laws Like laws had ever stopped a grave The north was dying village by village Raiders burning through the snow The gods were busy somewhere else So I became what they were not I gave my oath to silent gods And got back silence in return So when the darkness crossed the mountains I let the whole damn altar burn Now every prayer they ever taught me Falls apart inside my chest The gods returned my oath that night And I returned the rest The first beast died outside the walls The second died beside the sea The third one begged me for its life In a language known only to me Each victory came easier Each killing felt less strange The monster's blood upon my hands Began to feel like home again Then winter brought the Ashen King A thing of hunger, teeth, and frost The kind of enemy that leaves Entire bloodlines marked as lost We fought three days beneath the storm Steel and shadow, bone and fire And when I finally took his head I felt something I desired Not relief Not peace Not justice Not pride Just the awful understanding That I had enjoyed the ride I gave my oath to silent gods And got back silence in return So now I walk beyond their judgment And watch their sacred banners burn The kingdom still stands behind me The dead still sleep beneath the snow But every year I understand Why that old blade chose me long ago Medieval Confessions brings DnD characters to life through dark medieval folk music.
