The 1st section of The Cycle of Strife entitled Separate Paths is the introduction to The Cycle Of Strife Saga
lyrics
Brothers, Two the same
Motherless Creations
Each the others bane
One had sought redemption from his pain
One to find the past he hid in vain
The great empire of Cyrrus lies
On a plain of dust under darkened skies
Science holds the key, The future is made of Genetic chemistry
Three forces about to collide
Two will choose the path of chaos
that sets the world to genocide
what of the one who hangs at the mean
He must first understand himself to follow the scheme
