Forge the Beasts roars from the throat of Kingu, the chosen consort of Tiamat and bearer of the Tablet of Destinies in the Enuma Elish. Gifted divine authority, he becomes general of her monstrous army — crafting beasts and demons to wage war on the gods. This song captures the ritual of summoning chaos and the defiant rhythm of war.
Forge the Beasts
She crowned me king with bloodied flame
Her salt and wrath now bear my name
The stars shall shatter at my tread
We forge our might from gods long dead
Rise, O beasts, from sea and scale
Breathe fire where the laws shall fail
I bear the Tablet carved in bone
The throne of ash, the fate unknown
Steel and storm obey my breath
I forge the beasts, I summon death
Serpents scream with iron throats
Giants clad in molten coats
Scorpion lords and lion gods
Bound to me through oath and nod
Mother’s word is blade and bell
With every roar, a heaven fell
I bear the Tablet carved in bone
The throne of ash, the fate unknown
Steel and storm obey my breath
I forge the beasts, I summon death
Let mortal flame and cosmic law
Shiver before our primal claw
We are the night behind the light
The broken teeth of endless fight
The gods will kneel or drown in roar
The age of dragons wakes once more
I bear the Tablet carved in bone
The throne of ash, the fate unknown
Steel and storm obey my breath
I forge the beasts, I summon death
