The Prime Evils

The Prime Evils' Song
Only after his death was it discovered that he was a prophet, and that his unusual stories, songs, and poems were in fact accurate predictions of the future. Belatedly, those who were able to recall his words wrote them down as best they could for the edification of future generations.
One of the prophecies of Tolian told of five "Prime Evils" which would one day come to turn the world to darkness. Many partial and/or warped version of this prophecy exist, but the original is as follows.
Five evils and four weapons
Three wishes and two choices
One King.
In a time past vengeance
In a time of new peace
Unseen and unnoticed
The nexus draws near.
Five evils and four weapons
Three wishes and two choices
One King.
One banished would open
The gates to the Pit
One fallen from power
Olympus would climb.
Five evils and four weapons
Three wishes and two choices
One King.
One risen from black steel
One risen from death
The one hearing this song
Would rule in the end.
Five evils and four weapons
Three wishes and two choices
One King.
Before the first falling
Before the dark time
The last king, unknowing,
Prepares his child's way.
Five evils and four weapons
Three wishes and two choices
One King.
Beneath the red island
Beneath the dead Forge
Hope's ray gleams forever
In the eye of the damned
Five evils and four weapons
Three wishes and two choices
One King.
At the start, the last princeling
At the Nexus, a king
His choices will govern
The future of time.
Five evils and four weapons
Three wishes and two choices
One King.
