The legend behind this song

The Sovereign of Slaughter Claims Her Victory

Experience "Fields of the Apostate" - the second chapter of "The Eternal Vigil," the epic sequel to "The Cycle of Crows." This 6.5 minute Celtic power metal battle anthem chronicles a legendary clash where The Morrígan, now fully transformed into the immortal goddess of war, presides over the brutal carnage of mortal armies. From the gathering of warriors at dawn to the final triumphant claim of victory, this is authentic Irish mythology brought to life through thundering bodhrán war drums, piercing carnyx horns, and the haunting beauty of traditional Celtic instruments.

Where We Are in The Morrígan Saga:

"The Eternal Vigil" (Album 2) continues the story from "The Cycle of Crows" (Album 1). Having completed her transformation from mortal queen to immortal deity, The Morrígan now begins her endless watch over the mortal realm. While "My Endless Watch" explored her cosmic eternal perspective across all of history, "Fields of the Apostate" zooms in on a single legendary battle - witnessing the chaos, the fury, and the ultimate triumph through her divine eyes.
