Basking in the sun god's rays Conceived by immaculate solar flare Reflecting off, and on, the water of the womb Quaking earth spills the oceans As the mountain rises and lurches forth Gnashing its teeth

The painted woman rose in turn, crying out "Giant, these footsteps are merely my own creation" And, in some strange way, she had spoken the truth For her progeny were fated through their celestial nativity To heal this earth and wipe its scourge from its face The terrors shall dread the shaman's chant Echoing madly across the vast nothingness For it heralds the coming of the charcoal-painted warrior He who slays alien gods And he who cuts life from his enemy In search of the sun, he who gave them blood The spider grandmother adorns their skulls With feathers touched by the creator And so they began to climb the sky Slayer of alien gods Our father, the sun, we come seeking guidance In felling our brothers, these giants unspeakable My sons, or so you claim, prove yourselves worthy of me And I shall see you through your quest These trials are to be your greatest test Knowing now that they were his flesh, He bestowed upon them gifts With which to bring about the fall of their kin Struck down by the thunderbolts within their quivers, The Anaye fall as rains from the heavens Wind's child spreads word of their return Through a hole in the sky, the mountain peers When through the dust they appear Arrows drawn, incorporeal, without fear Lightning impales the beast, crumbling to its knees Its heart and its breath, and its nerves strung through the depths, Come pouring from a distant cave A sickening crack shakes the air The ichor flows forth, beware The earth trembles, shuddering, the sky howls through itself The blood burns the grass in its wake to ash The brothers stagger away, the painted woman is pleased She dances with his scalp in her teeth
