Reach
Barren, it lay barren.
Your false religion corrupted the minds.
It spread faster than a virus.
You had something to prove, yet you used it to gain false trust.
Your covenant reached out to everyone.
Your militia cut a thousand lives while you shaped others for the "greater good".
Your years were nothing but torment.
Torment to others and also yourself.
You lived empty years
I hope you're happy with yourself because I am not.
