Henchman of Darkness

Born into darkness
As I am older than the light
Just like my father
I am the henchman of the night
In ancient times I learned my skills
Mid ages strengthened my dark will
The masterstroke is not far
And I’m prowling forward — on an on
I’m the afterbirth of night
Born eons before the light
The stalwart right hand of himself
The thorn in mankind’s heart
Poisoned bolts rip through your world
Tear apart your shield of dreams
The rusty knife cuts off your heads
Last thing you see is my evil smile
It’s the last thing you’ll see before you die
