STORMRULER comments on "Chapter I. The Sword, The Scepter & The Seal":
“The Sword, The Scepter and The Seal is a historical account told to the young wanderer by a scraggly old patron during the prologue of Morning Nautical Twilight. Beginning in the year 1142 F.A. TS3 takes place 2150 years before the rest of the record setting the course for the troubles that will come to haunt Aurelia and to give the listener a brief history on the origins of the Imperial Scepter.
The piece itself weaves in a sonic assault of folk, power, black and death. Equipped with soaring leads, mountainous melodies and a blistering rhythmic attack it takes the listener on a journey through the early ages of Umbria and the forging of the Imperial Scepter in the glowing embers of the Lunar Pyre.”
Set in present-day Aurelia, "Chapter I. The Sword, The Scepter & The Seal" introduces the land, core characters and the overarching story of Morning Nautical Twilight. The abrasive quality of black metal collides with the warmth and emotive tones of folk instruments and bright melodies. STORMRULER entwine light and shade in a compelling sonic display that ignites the grandeur and intensity of the tale that is set to unfold.
