The Thursday Prompt 02.01.2025. Word: number

What can be a better number than an exact one thousand? XD
Actually far from most of my works average quality, but it has a reason – very hard to translate a song independently when an official english cover is playing in your head non-stop xP You really should check english version to get a much better pleasure of lyrics

A hero of a thousand faces,
A hero... one of many I've seen,
but tell me, do you know the chaos you bring?
I've seen the hero of a thousand worlds,
I've seen the demon, the beast that broke the covenant,
I've seen the "hero" That vile thing who tore flood by their teeth!
They call them heroes, even when titans fall,
They call them heroes, when the millions dwindle and dwall!
The heroes who fight, the heroes who count kills instead of saves.
The heroes who pillage the villages in lands of blocks,
The heroes who refuse to stop!
A beast from hell, bringing doom to all,
A savior from the pipes, consuming mushrooms to grow,
A survivor from the plane, who fought the brothers in the woods below!
A hero with a thousand faces, all the same source.
From fighting in frames of war,
From flying with banshees and jets above
From summoning bots with bombs to blow,
From fighting my evil brethren from depths below!
We see you, hero, you wretched being from the either!
We see you, and we wait, for one of these days,
We will survive, we will win, and when we do... heh...
You'll only respawn in a far away land,
Home to Alduin!
I love the structure and the inspiration from the song! Wonderful job! Hope you don't mind the small inspired play in the comments!

Ohhh hehe. I actually feel opposite, that Russian one is more emotional, but I guess it depends on the listener^^
And yeah! Around 3-4 years ago, he started making english covers on his own songs, and new songs are followed by eng version in few days or a week! You can find a separate playlist with them all on his channel^^
