Boy of Destruction

**Boy of Destruction** is a song affiliated with, but not a part of, the "Four Endings Series". It follows the life of Adam Moonlit and his various incarnations throughout the span of the Third Period.

## Plot

The narrator tells of how a "seed of the gods" inside a beaker birthed Adam Moonlit, a man able to reincarnate. He was a scientist in a northern country, a count from across the sea, a "Servant of Temperance" in an empire, and a spy from the central country who murdered his father. He will appear on the night of a new moon, heralding an ending that will either save or destroy the world.

It is then explained how the gods created the world as a millennial kingdom that was supposed to erase malice, with four endings set in place according to its rules. These endings will be created by the Masters of the Graveyard, Court, Hellish Yard, and Heavenly Yard, the last of which may lead to a utopia. As each ending is unavoidable, everyone will receive atonement for their sins no matter what conclusion is reached. The song then notes that Adam's destiny beyond this millennium is uncertain, with him becoming either an angel or an insane familiar.

## Lyrics

A tiny, tiny seed of the gods that laid inside the beaker

One of the fragments it gave birth to was named Adam

If his body should rot away, he will be reborn endlessly

That was the doing of the gods

He was once a scientist in a country to the north

He created the holy twins who later killed him for revenge

Once he was an unchaste count from a country across the sea

He killed a saintly duke and fled with his lover

Once he was a servant of Temperance in a red empire

He killed many people in service to his master

Finally he was a spy disguised as a servant from a central country

He murdered his birth father and then disappeared from history

On a night when the new moon darkens the sky

Adam will appear

What does he see, with his eyes

Sunken into darkness

This tiny, tiny world created by the pillar gods

This millenial kingdom that should have erased malice

Four different endings were prepared in its rules

What the man does may just decide this

The Master of the Graveyard brings death,

Everything becomes fodder for the gods

The Master of the Court brings the trial,

Everything receives judgment

The Master of the Hellish Yard brings hell,

No one will ever be forgiven

The Master of the Heavenly Yard brings atonement,

This may show the way to utopia

Any of these endings may occur

That certainly can't be avoided

The established conclusion, or the distorted Irregular

Atonement will be given to all equally

Crossing the millennium time span, Adam will appear

While not knowing his own destiny

Whether he will become an angel or an insane familiar

No one truly knows
