The War Domain Cleric returns, and this time he is not marching into battle: he is praying it down from heaven. ⚔️ This is a dark gothic metal invocation built like a midnight mass, where a thundering church pipe organ and solemn Latin choir chants collide with relentless double kick drums, soaring lead guitar and operatic male vocals, turning one cleric's prayer into a declaration of holy war. 🔥 In D&D lore, the War Domain Cleric is the battle-priest of gods like Tempus, Bane and the Red Knight: a living conduit who blesses blades, guides strikes with War God's Blessing, and channels divine wrath straight into the front line. This song captures the moment after the enemy burns his temple, when the last cleric kneels in the ashes, speaks the forbidden war-prayer, and the sky itself answers: fiat bellum. Let there be war. ⚔️

LYRICS:
Dies irae dies illa
Fiat bellum fiat bellum
Veni veni deus belli
Fiat bellum fiat bellum
They set the house of heaven to the flame
They spat upon the altar and your name
I did not pray for mercy in the smoke
I found the older prayer the fathers spoke
Lord of the legions hear your servant's cry
The candles gutter and the hour is nigh
The world has begged for peace and peace has lied
Unbar your gates and let the answer ride
Let there be war let the heavens ring
Come down in fire on black and burning wing
Let there be war let the trumpets sound
Your kingdom come in thunder to the ground
Fiat bellum fiat bellum
Let there be war
The bells that hung in silence start to toll
A requiem is rising in my soul
The graven saints avert their marble eyes
As hooves of thunder gather in the skies
Lord of the legions I have kept the flame
My scars the scripture written in your name
The world has begged for peace and peace has lied
Unbar your gates and let the answer ride
Let there be war let the heavens ring
Come down in fire on black and burning wing
Let there be war let the trumpets sound
Your kingdom come in thunder to the ground
Fiat bellum fiat bellum
Let there be war
In nomine belli
Sanguine et igne
Fiat voluntas tua
Fiat voluntas tua
He speaks and every mountain bows its head
The sky is torn the sea is running red
I called for war and war is what he said
Let there be war let the heavens ring
Come down in fire on black and burning wing
Let there be war let the trumpets sound
Your kingdom come in thunder to the ground
Let there be war till every idol falls
My god is marching when his cleric calls
Fiat bellum fiat bellum
Fiat bellum let there be war
Dies irae dies illa
Fiat bellum fiat bellum
Dies irae dies illa
Amen
