about

The plot of this albumis based on a free interpretation of the storylines from the Tanakh in their magical aspects - namely, the central character, King Salomon who acts as an Archmage and a Sage. But his knowledge and wisdom is not enough to bind the dark demonic forces which were released to this world. As a Mage he stays powerless in his knowledge askin God for support and being tormented with his own human weaknesses; choosing the side of the righteous, he refuses to cooperate with Hell that eventually leads to the destruction of the Temple and the downfall of his empire.
There are excerpts from the Tanakh in Hebrew used in the compositions.
