I swore...
To save them all.
My father...
My kingdom...
I failed them all.
Born to a crown I was never meant to wear.
A father's name. A kingdom in my care.
I raised my hand against the crawling plague.
I swore I'd save them, whatever it would take.
The bells were ringing.
The streets turned red.
No cure remained
For the living dead.
No more retreat.
No more delay.
I gave the order.
They turned away.
You called me monster.
You called me blind.
What would you sacrifice
To save your kind?
I saved them all!
I watched them fall!
The crown is mine.
The grave is theirs.
No gods above!
No one to blame!
I killed the king.
I kept his name.
Beyond the sea, beneath a dying sky.
I chased the voice that promised me an end.
Through frozen wastes, where desperate men had died.
I found a blade that called itself my friend.
I cast aside the light I used to serve.
I paid in blood for power without end.
I thought the sword would bend beneath my will.
I never heard the chains until they closed.
You called me monster.
You called me blind.
You never saw
What I became.
I saved them all!
I watched them fall!
The crown is mine.
The grave is theirs.
No gods above!
No one to blame!
I killed the king.
I kept his name.
Father, can you hear me?
The snow has covered everything.
The halls are cold and empty.
No voice remembers me.
I came to end the suffering.
I came to stop the dead.
Now every road leads back to me.
Their blood is on my hands.
I saved them all!
I watched them fall!
The crown is mine.
The grave is theirs.
No gods above!
No one to blame!
I killed the king.
I kept his name.
I'll freeze the sun!
I'll silence heaven!
The prince is gone!
The king remains!
And nothing human
Still remains!
