Mudoo Ra from Mudoo Ra by Hungry Lights
In this chapter, Prill digs under the wall, and when he crawls through his tunnel, he pops out in a garden full of fleshy, wriggly plants, some of which have human limbs. As he makes his way through, one by one, they start attacking him, and though he valiantly tries to fight back, his left hand is eventually eaten off. As he struggles for life, hacking and cutting at the things, a free, human-like limb attaches itself to Prill's wrist-stump.
Inside the greenhouse is Luk'ba who is sitting at a table, pruning a bunch of repulsive plants that are around it. She is a spitting image of Atah'xia and Arilayah, two people he killed in the previous albums. The disturbed Prill goes to kill her, but she asks him to check his arm. When he does this, he sees that his wounds are all healing, and the scars from his burns are going away. She says the plant is symbiotic. He gave it a home, so it is protecting its host. The plants she was pruning spring to life and start bubbling and gurgling and twitching in a grotesque manner, and Luk'ba goes on about how proud she is over her work. Disgusted by them, Prill decides he does not want to kill anymore.
Luk'ba gives him a seed. If he plants it in the swamp, it will quickly grow into something that greatly resembles her head. Prill takes the seed and dips.

Lyrics
One shovel from insane
When I realized the bar was set to high,
But avarice had surely caught me by the toe,
Dragged me through the mud,
Stuck me in the center,
Then the feast began!
O’ I’d lost my hand!
Shouldn’t have been much a surprise to me,
And I confess, there was a godsend
It seems good fortune still appears to those
Who walk the path of carelessness and greed
And with flesh comes sentience
Fate decrees from a part of your world
I’m forever between something I’m not supposed to know
And all the thoughts that float around it
-Influence the way that I contain myself,
And I don’t even want to
Yeah well, maybe I’m just done with being told
I’m not good enough
-Good enough
-Good enough
And with madness comes negligence
You should look beyond your bleakness
Pray your sadness to the beast,
Don’t be comrades with the weak,
And you’ll be glad the symbiosis was bestowed
And surely half the bad I’ve done’ll be washed away
Because all beauty comes clean
And I could feel myself anew
The scars of my decay had been erased
Your feet remember all the places you’ve been,
But things intertwine and override when they’re complete
Placed around the table,
Where only dreadfulness secretes,
All my horrors brought to light
What an unsanitary world
And I’m a part of it
Placed ‘round the table,
All of my terrors brought to light,
And I’m unfamiliar with this type of process
I’m already elbow-deep in travesty
And hellbent on staying gold
‘Cause sin’s been such a tragedy,
And I’m done with favors
But what do you say
To the hecklers all in the black of the room?
Do you settle the score?
‘Cause the moment you turn your back,
They will come
I’m good enough to recognize I’ve gotcha’ when I see it
The better it tastes,
The more you’re likely to try it again
And the better it tastes, you’ll try harder
We’re all just victims
No one can help it
No one can help it

Hungry Lights is my solo music project. The plan is to release five concept albums all surrounding a character named, "Prill," who is a plesiosaur hunter on a quest to better his life, but everything he does just adds to his own delusion and lack of self-worth. The music is the musical interpretation of a book series I have been writing called, "From Windfall To Hell."
