In Our Home, Across the Fog (2025) Bloody Valkyria 🇫🇮 Finland

Once he was a golden son, enriched with glory and fame
First born of his divine kin, the whole world knew his name
Scion to the Golden Line, savior of thousands lives
But it all turned asunder at the Night of the Black Knives

Perished in soul alone, never able to find true peace. His malformed corpse now rotting away deep below, spreading blight and disease.

She was the princess of the stars, of the moon and sky
Desperate to lose her flesh, to let her body die
And so the Numen warriors came in the cover of dark
and with their imbued knives carved their flesh with the cursemark

"And in the Night of the Black Knives, Godwyn the Golden was first to perish. On a night of wintry fog, the Rune of Death was stolen and the demigods began to fall."

Imbued with the Rune of Death!

Such disgrace, such humiliation, how could this come to be?
He should have died a true death instead of this cruelty
Sentenced to live in Death, Godwyn shall never be free

"O frigid sun of Sol, please return his breath
O Lord Brother, please die a true death"

This foul tragedy drove Queen Marika to the brink
Drove her into madness, triggering the Shattering
Anger swelling within like needles through her skin
And in her divine hate she shattered the Elden Ring

"O Brother, Lord Brother, please die a true death"

She shattered the Elden Ring!

Imbued with the Rune of Death!

Set on path of revenge, this fool tries to prove his worth
End up as a failure just like in times before
Far cry from a real warrior, seduced with dreams and delusions
Sullied his House's name, a coward, not fit for war

End up in a town of jars, with hands as smooth as silk
Resembling a real man now, nothing like before
Stood up against the poacher, this fool to prove his worth
The tale of House Hoslow is told in blood, after all

O Diallos! You proved your worth in the end
The tale of House Hoslow, is tale told in blood

"My hands will be darkened by grit, once I've set out on the path of champions. I've been a fool but rest assured. From now on, I shall forge my own path."

O Diallos! You proved your worth in the end
The tale of House Hoslow, is tale told in blood

Brave Tarnished, the path is set upon thee. Make thy way to the capital, at the root of the Erdtree.
From Stormveil to Liurnia, from Limgrave to Leyndell.
Make thy way through misery, despair, tears and blood. Burn the thorns, ready your sword for strike to kill a God.

Instrumental

Regent vassal of chaos
Tarnished warrior and would-be Lord
Hear my words of the ever-lasting
chaos in its most abhorred

O, Three Fingers
Throw wide the door
Incinerate all
Melt it all for evermore

Born from the mistake
every sin and every curse
Lamenting their birth
screaming, howling without words

Descent into the depths
far below the great Leyndell
Through the sewers and shunning-grounds
Where the Three Fingers dwell

Inherit the flame of frenzy
Yellow flames as your crown
Become the Lord of Chaos
Burn the Erdtree to the ground

Chosen Tarnished and would-be Lord
Spare the maiden on thy quest
Tread the path of true rigor
and singe thy own flesh instead

May chaos take the world
and melt away despair
May chaos take the world

Unknown warrior, divest yourself of everything. Become the Lord of those who suffered. The cursed and the afflicted. And melt away all that ever was, to wash off their pain.

May chaos take the world
and melt away despair
every sin, every curse and suffering
and the order entire
May chaos take the world
and melt away despair
May chaos take the world

Eventually an eye for an eye leaves the whole world blind

"Heed the words of I, Shabriri. Chosen Tarnished and would-be Lord. Burn the Erdtree to the ground and incinerate all that divides and distinguishes. May chaos take the world. May chaos take the world!"

"I am chaos incarnate. I cannot die"

"Did you see what they did to my ancestors? Sick, maddened, husks of themselves. They think we worship the Three Fingers, that we called the maddening sickness down upon them. Well, if that's what they expect from us, then that's what they shall get from us!"

May chaos take the world
and melt away despair
May chaos take the world
And if you shall inherit the yellow chaos flame
I will hunt you down even on my last breath
And I will swear this, upon my name
I shall deliver you what is yours, the Destined Death

Instrumental

"O dear Lady Ranni, weave thy night into being"

Born to serve the Gold which eclipsed her dark Moon
Following their path bearing their great rune
Writhe against her fate, she stole death to disobey
And defying destiny she cast her flesh away

Left it all behind to reach the coldest light
She conjured a scheme for the majesty of night
To fulfill this masterplan, a dark path she must follow
Into fear, doubt and loneliness this path will make us go
...And above the stars will glow

"I go now, to the night sky. It is there I shall find mine order.
I bid thee travel the path of the Lord.
And once all is done, we shall see each other, once more."

"Go as you must, Lady Ranni, along the path of darkness."

Since there falls no shadow, where there shines no sun
So ,too, must Ranni leave her shadow behind
To rid the world of all that came before
Bestow the chill of the night that encompasses all

"Glory to the Moon, glory to the skies and the stars above. Glory to the princess of Caria to whom we devote our love."

Betrothed with the ring and the Dark Moon Greatsword
Slay all the demigods and become her Elden Lord

"Now cometh the age of the stars. A thousand year voyage under the wisdom of the Moon."
