Metal Monday LXXVIII - Mystic Mountain Dream

8/21/2017

Taking another break from Hermodr's extensive collection, we move onward to a High Fantasy legend. Although Highbourne, Valiant has been a surprising find. Our whimsical and wonderful journey begins with Shadow's Dawn (EP).

Bless this mountain, with promises of serenity,
And the light to guide, no more evil to hide,
These lands to seek, in this mystic dream.

Believe to release, destiny in this mystic dream.

Forget the darkness, follow the winds of glory,
And the night to explore, no corruption anymore,
Take this vision you see, mystic mountain dream.

Believe to release, destiny in this mystic dream.

QUOTES I ADMIRE
"A wilderness, in contrast with those areas where man and his own works dominate the landscape, is an area where the earth and its community of life are untrammeled by man, where man himself is a visitor who does not remain." - from the Wilderness Act, 1964

"I owe my solitude to other people." - ALAN WATTS

“I think I could turn and live with the animals, they are so placid and self contained;
I stand and look at them long and long.
They do not sweat and whine about their condition;
They do not lie awake in the dark and weep for their sins;
They do not make me sick discussing their duty to God;
Not one is dissatisfied-not one is demented with the mania of owning things;
Not one kneels to another, nor his kind that lived thousands of years ago;
Not one is responsible or industrious over the whole earth.”
― Walt Whitman

"In the ancient world, people placed heavy stones on the graves of the dead so their souls would not wander and inflict the living. I always thought this was simply the practice of superstitious and primitive people. But I was about to learn that the dead can hover on the edge of our vision with the density and luminosity of mist, and their claim on the earth can be as legitimate and tenacious as our own."

- Dave Robicheaux (In The Electric Mist With Confederate Dead)
