Story[]
In this chapter, Prill is being swooned over by the people of Ik'theves. Word is spreading quickly that he defeated The Three Gods, and he is becoming famous. He feels like he has finally redeemed himself. He and Reflaugh are both set free, and Prill is given a tremendous amount of gold as prize money. Despite all this, he does not feel like it is enough. Something is still missing. Something is still keeping him stuck. There is one last thing he needs to do to fully repent and create his new awakening.
Lyrics[]
Lean right in with new eyes
But watch your step!
For the ground takes hold
Wishing brings in a fog,
So shake my hand like a humbled fool
Life’s a pattern of lines
And all’s been stitched
-It’s long-closed wound
There’s no reason nor rhyme,
So all we need’s to let go!
You always say it like you mean it,
But we both know ‘twas only for show
Here’s to starting over!
Bring the inside out
Go full circle with a hole in the edge
From the things we design
-The ideas we can never take back
O’ how we love to count the priceless pieces!
And I’ve been here before!
It’s where I lost your support
There was enough to leave you so speechless—speechless!
But not enough to keep control
So just remind me, why did I try?
Here’s to starting over!
Bring the inside out
Go full circle with a hole in the edge
From the things we design
-The ideas we can never take back
There’s so much that I had
-So much I couldn’t see
Easier said than done,
But don’t seat me at the table of gods
To watch ‘em drop
Shot—not a bullet,
But got to blast through it, y’all!
I wrote the path—every single print
I made the lines with my blood
I can draw anything
And I’ll make this real!
‘Cause that’s who I am!
I laugh in the face of disgrace
With a pen raised high
When everyone else here denies who they are,
I stand in the light
And I scream, "You’re a star!”
No, I’ve come way too far!
I’ll not be shut down by these spears
I’ll repent after all!
Go full circle with a hole in the edge
