gehenna (my favorite one)
it's the ending of the summers,
at night the earth still burning from the sommer.
the fires couldn't burn me through my plates of shining armor.
though the flesh is weak,
through my galea i show my teeth.
though that night I fell beneath,
still pull the blade between my sheath,
may the daimon feel its heat.
pull lost souls if by athene,
guide them far as from the lethe.
in this journey, might my armor melt,
through these demons thou art in hell,
to peirce the soul I beheld,
they're gonna need some larger shells.

it's not gonna make much sense to anyone uninterested in Greek and Latin mythology 😭
