Hashasheen from Konstantinopolis by Nox Doloris
A small detachment of assassins was defeated by the warriors of Salah Ad-Din. Only one survived, who fled from his pursuers to Constantinople. He thoughtfully smokes a hookah in the capital of Byzantium and ponders if he truely needs this sect of Ismailis, or would it be better to lay low and be on his own.

Lyrics
Hassan Sabbah!
You are the Wisest One,
Second to sun,
Guide me to Jahannam
Tell me whom should I kill
I want my heart to fill
With ire and holy rage
Help me to break this cage
Hashasheen
We’ll still punish Salah ad-Din
But for now I will ease your pain
Take a deep breath and fly away
Like in the sweetest of prayers
O Allah!
Tell me, how could you leave us?
I need your advice
Why?
Give me a sign!
Tell me, is this your design
To kill us like a kine?
Doomed to die
Trained to kill
Will I ever be free?
Forced to writhe
Like a prey
Lorn to suffer in pain
Doomed to hear
Dead men’s cries
Fated to agonize
My only solace within
Is this poisonous…
Hashasheen
There are wonders you haven't seen
Holy city of deadly sins
Like a mirage of evil jinn
Will enslave your will
Praise to thou
Who beset the road I was wandering on, having lost
My soul
I have found the true way
The veil now is finally gone
O Allah!
Now I can see
What was hidden from me
I breathed in
The poisonous dust
I can now be
Free from vows
For in, out, above, below,
'Tis nothing but a Shadow-show
Phantom icons will come and go
I am all on my own
