In-depth analysis of the new Pentakill Album. The lore references and all...
So, not all of the songs have lyrics so i won't put them in, those are "Blade Of The Ruined King" and "Hex Core mk-2"
I really love Pentakill and i'm really happy that riot made more songs. I'll take the songs in the order they were relesed in.
So let's start with the first one "The bloodthirster" 
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KBq_KtuSIF0
Cast down the weak Those who deceived us Those who would let us burn Liars and cheats Brittle and weak Another day will come
Crawling on your knees right to the end I let you pretend you had your last days Calling for me to disappear I cannot be so easily sent forth
As you descended on them You carry their memories of endless pain As remnants to their end One after one You sever them, sever them Sever
Sever, sever your demons deep within A shadow that’s been long instilled
Cast down the weak Those who deceived us Those who would let us burn Liars and cheats Brittle and weak Another day will come
Torment so easily dispensed You tried to break our will but you failed Calling the serpentine flame Until we were just dust and remains
As you descended on them You carry their memories of endless pain As remnants to their end One after one You sever them, sever them Sever
Cast down the weak Those who deceived us Those who would let us burn Liars and cheats Brittle and weak Another day will come
Cast down the weak Those who would flee us Those who would let us burn Liars and cheats Feeble and weak I see them Another day will Another day will Another day will come
This song doesn't seem to have any lore in it. As the text may reference
cause of his in game voice lines and his character. It also fits the overall Noxus mindset of killing the weak and being the strongest, but it doesn't fit anything.
But it may be as with the other two songs that i'll talk about later, it's about an "Legendary Weapon" or it's owner/wielder. That would tell us that The bloodthirster(weapon) aloows the user to take memories of the ones they killed "As you descended on them You carry their memories of endless pain As remnants to their end"
He also seems to have been betrated as said here
"Those who deceived us Those who would let us burn Liars and cheats Brittle and weak Another day will come"
This would kind of fit the new
lore but it's too agressive to fit urgot.
In this part of the text it tells how exacly "The Bloodthirster" works ?
"Calling the serpentine flame Until we were just dust and remains"
The serpentine flame is probably streams of blood and being dust and remains(bones) might be about sucking all blood of the target and leaving it as just dust. I can see how that works, cause it thirsts for blood and all.
The next one is "Tear of the Goddess" 
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=btSlfXILTkU
The unknown terror That stood alone Passed from the days of the early suns Through worlds of lost belief Laid waste and buried deep
Summoned to be set up to fall But there’s no fear That lives inside this soul
Inside this world There is no way back to forgiving us Undone, deliverer The sinful and the saviors of the innocent
And so Keepers of old Keep us from cold Let us fight once more Till our honor is restored
The unknown terror That lives below Breaths the flames from the dying suns And lives to wake the dying ones The dying ones
The dying ones (The dying ones) (The dying ones)
Inside this world There is no way back to forgiving us Undone, deliverer The sinful and the saviors of the innocent
And so Keepers of old Keep us from cold Let us fight once more Till our honor is restored
This song is about the Ice Watchers, that is a thing that is for sure.
"The unknown terror That stood alone"
This part tells us that no one knows what they were and all.
"Passed from the days of the early suns Through worlds of lost belief"
This speaks of them being really old and now not a lot of people belive that they exist
"Laid waste and buried deep"
This part is about them being stuck in the Howling Abyss atm.
"Summoned to be set up to fall But there’s no fear That lives inside this soul"
This part may be about them being lured into the abyss and that they did not fear it, or it may talk about the ones who threw them in about not fearing them.
"Inside this world There is no way back to forgiving us Undone, deliverer The sinful and the saviors of the innocent"
This may be someone talking in place of the watchers as no one wants to forgive them (the ones that know about them)
The sinful as they are "the bad guys" Saviors of the innocent as they really were trying to help freljorians the best way they knew, giving them weapons, taking care of them, making some of them iceborn (immortal).
"And so Keepers of old Keep us from cold Let us fight once more Till our honor is restored"
The freljordians asking watchers to let them fight as they used to before to restore their honor.
Now the rest is just repeating but the overall song may tell us how the "Tear of the godess" was created, as it is in a song about Frenjord and it does have an Blue-black look to it. It's probably True Ice or Corrupted True ice, the name references some godess but we know almost nothing about gods in runterra, so i think that this is an True Ice tear bestoved upon freljordians from one of the watchers as they were as gods for them.
Now with the main two out we're going into "Dead Man’s Plate" 
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ASxLLTu1ZY
Is there reason, in this life We call our own So many misguided visions And trusting deceit And in our shallow pursuit of truth We lost ourselves
May the storms gather May the cinders roam Those that will die will still remember
You drank deep and you paid the price (What did you think you would find) Answer the dark whisper And you will tear this world apart Our world apart
When the walls came down We we’re left abandoned here There's no soul inside us We're just all flesh and bone To wander the dead lands forever
Will we ever get the chance
Will we ever get the chance To show them So many forgotten and we live on In the city that once was timeless
You drank deep and you paid the price (What did you think you would find) Answer the dark whisper And you will tear this world apart Our world apart
You will tear this world apart
As we know the item "Dead man's plate" belonged to Gangplank, this song is really bare bones for me.
It is about
but it's only about how he got betrayed and wants revenge
"You will tear this world apart"
Now that was quick, let's go for the next one
"Mortal Reminder" 
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1UeMVfHN2P8&t=61s
Blinded by hate brought by the fall As I swear death to all You will feel my vengeance As I claim your mortal soul
I will punish and destroy Those responsible for this ploy I will seek a thousand deaths I will bring a thousand years of war
All that I had taken away My home is gone, and my love ones slain For every sleep claims a piece of me Every waking moment, every single dream
As the masses came Like a shadow through this land They laid siege to all we ever had I stood strong, I was honor bound I stand defiant, I stand ever proud I am the chosen I am the guardian, the guardian
Now I seek the blood of those Who claimed the innocent I will hunt the enemy to the last I will banish and rejoice The final breath of foes You will see what you have made You will see what I have finally become
All that I had laid to the waste My spirit broken and just memories remain For every day claims a piece of me Every waking hour claims my inner peace My inner peace
As the masses came Like a shadow through this land They laid siege to all we ever had I stood strong, I was honor bound I stand defiant, I stand ever proud I am the chosen I am the guardian, the guardian
This song is all about
es lore and it is really clear.
He wants revenge and got consumed by the corruption. There's not much i have to say, the story is a good
lore.
"As the masses came Like a shadow through this land They laid siege to all we ever had I stood strong, I was honor bound I stand defiant, I stand ever proud I am the chosen I am the guardian, the guardian"
This part talks about the noxian invasion and how he was defending the corruption well as he was it's chosen guardian.
"Now I seek the blood of those Who claimed the innocent I will hunt the enemy to the last"
And now he wants revenge, i love the song but it's still just varuses lore.
Also the item "Mortal Reminder" might be
bow before the corruption took him over and he took the Darkin bow. I think of that cause it looks kind of corrupted and the master archer probably wouldn't leave his bow while taking in the corruption. Now he has the Darkin living bow whitch looks diffrent, but his normal bow got corrupted too. The weapon in game gives grievous wounds as does
es bow but it's a lot weaker.
Now the next one is "Rapid Firecannon" 
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VO1aUkF5Kbc
A forgotten place inside the lonely tower Tear it down with a metal roar The war eternal, I assail the unassailable A second release unhaunted by my past
Beneath the marshlands Calling forth the night Buried deep a weapon forged in fire Fathers and sons their kin laid to waste (An evil is renewed)
Light up The night with flames and cinder For I am renewed (Down in flames) (Feel the kick and watch them burn)
Light up Caught in the crossfire Overwhelming firepower (Now return to hell) (In a firestorm)
Out with the old In with the new world order Die or obey the choice is yours Undetected, into the spider’s web Taking it apart slowly piece by piece
Find a shadow to hide me, and I wait Tricksters and spellweavers beware With this flame I culled the weak Made my nation strong again Well now they're all dead and gone Dead and gone
With this blade I call the weak Make my nation strong again
Beneath the marshlands Calling forth the night Buried deep a weapon forged in fire Fathers and sons, their kin laid to waste (An evil is renewed)
Light up The night with flames and cinder For I am renewed (Down in flames) (Feel the kick and watch them burn)
Light up Caught in the crossfire Overwhelming firepower (Now return to hell) (In a firestorm)
This text talks about an Pseudo Legendary weapon, "The Rapidfire Cannon" It was made by someone in bielgwater.
"A second release unhaunted by my past"
"Calling forth the night Buried deep a weapon forged in fire Fathers and sons their kin laid to waste (An evil is renewed)"
"Light up The night with flames and cinder For I am renewed (Down in flames) (Feel the kick and watch them burn)"
Now this tells us how the weapon works, it might be cursed or forged in fire may talk about it being created by someone strong like
he is a craftsman that could create that as he is not only an blacksmith but i doubt it.
The weapon is really strong as one shot lights up the entire place in flames.
"Find a shadow to hide me, and I wait Tricksters and spellweavers beware With this flame I culled the weak Made my nation strong again Well now they're all dead and gone Dead and gone
With this blade I call the weak Make my nation strong again"
Now this is something, it references the wielder of the gun, The King Of Bielgwater as he talks about his nation. It may be
or the one before him, probably not
as she uses her mother's guns.
I hope it is
, it fits him cause we can also see him using an sword "With this blade I call the weak" as he would because he got to be the king of bielgwater by fear and killing people.
Now for the "Cull"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sOhFHWk4oXg
Cut down, one by one No sound remains Don’t fear if death finds you, this day
Are you with me Let us savor the pain Do you hear the distant sound Calling your name
In time, all of us are forgotten The ones that don’t belong to the pages of history
But as my forefathers, I take to the open seas And as long before, I follow and don’t ask more Passed down, long before, the stories of old
This time, I will not be forgotten I won’t be towed along with the feeble and the enemy
But as my forefathers, I take to the open seas And as long before, I follow and don’t ask more Passed down, long before, the stories of old And won’t be called upon
The song is as short as it's name. it doesn't seem to talk about the item "Cull" but it mostly references it as "Death" and the whole sickle thing.
"This time, I will not be forgotten I won’t be towed along with the feeble and the enemy"
The character doesn't want to die just like the others, "enemy" and "feeble". He talks about that all die not even if they're strong or not.
"Butt as my forefathers, I take to the open seas And as long before, I follow and don’t ask more Passed down, long before, the stories of old And won’t be called upon"
And this just tells us that he died. (lol)
Now for "Frozen Heath" 
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QJRLhRhcfgs
Up here on the roof of the world Up here on the roof of the world
Long have we sought to ascend this place A life of servitude to omens The elders have promised us long before With evil banished to the wastelands Hands of the chosen will extend to us
Upon the roof of this world Distant voices calling for the final fight We will answer with victory
Long have we fought for these lands In the shadows and the stories of the promised light Now to take our place beyond
Up here on the roof of the world Up here on the roof of the world Where we are sworn to guard no more Up here on the roof of the world
Long have we fought to protect this place These haunted dreams never ending Clinching to the promises of life reborn
Upon the roof of this world Distant voices calling for the final fight We will answer with victory
Long have we fought for these lands In the shadows and the stories of the promised light Now to take our place beyond
Here on the roof of the world In the cradle of the storms Where vengeful winds cut to the bone And there's no turning back
(Here on the roof of the world) (Here on the roof of the world) (Here on the roof of the world) Up here on the roof of the world Up here on the roof of the world Where we are sworn to guard no more Up here on the roof of the world
"Long have we sought to ascend this place A life of servitude to omens The elders have promised us long before With evil banished to the wastelands Hands of the chosen will extend to us
Upon the roof of this world Distant voices calling for the final fight We will answer with victory"
I understand this as people of targon ascending the mountain, and the "victory" and "final fight" is their fight with the mountain and their idividual fights.
"Long have we fought to protect this place These haunted dreams never ending Clinching to the promises of life reborn"
This references
,
and
as they are the protectors of targon and Taric of overall everything.
The thing is i don't know why the "Frozen Hearth" is not connected to the Freljord and the song is about Targon. I think this may be cause in every store we've seen it's really cold on targon and that's there the hearth was found. (Yea and normal mountains are cold too" "Up here on the roof of the world" - is just talking about Targon being the highest place in runterra.
Now "Infinity Edge" 
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lTLqmPoJbJc
Beyond the lands of dreams I hear the call of riches Word of waters blessed unnatural Granting power of gods to men
Under the distant sun is my calling I walk the lands That death cannot conquer And through the unforgiving worlds The battle lays in wait Seeking the way That leads me to the power of the edge The edge
I'm living and dying a thousand lives And it’s taken its toll on me this time The edge cares not so why should I Because I breath the air of immortals And I'll be the true invincible The edge is my destiny
So far from home I'm reeling I've seen the fall of friends The end of the road approaching I will have my victory
I will not cease to be You will not ever stop me I won't give up the dream You cannot ever stop me
Seeking the way That leads me to the power of the edge
I'm living and dying a thousand lives And it’s taken its toll on me this time The edge cares not so why should I Because I breath the air of immortals And I'll be the true invincible The edge is my destiny
I'm living and dying a thousand lives And it’s taken its toll on me this time The edge cares not so why should I Because I breath the air of immortals And I'll be the true invincible The edge is my destiny
My destiny My destiny My destiny My destiny
This song is really strong and i love it.
"Beyond the lands of dreams I hear the call of riches Word of waters blessed unnatural Granting power of gods to men
Under the distant sun is my calling I walk the lands That death cannot conquer And through the unforgiving worlds The battle lays in wait Seeking the way That leads me to the power of the edge The edge"
Our character is from Shurima, he talks about giving power of gods to men (
)
The land that death cannot conquer, i think it's about how Shurima fell but it was rebuild by
.
"I'm living and dying a thousand lives And it’s taken its toll on me this time The edge cares not so why should I Because I breath the air of immortals And I'll be the true invincible The edge is my destiny"
This explains the whole "Edge of Infinity" name, this sword as you may have seen is made from runes, powerful at that. The wielder is Immortal, Liellary Fucking Immortal. He breathes the air of immortals and "And I'll be the true invincible The edge is my destiny" the edge makes him truly invincible because as we know Ascended can be killed but they cannot die from normal causes like time,sickness.\
"Seeking the way That leads me to the power of the edge"
The sword may gather power from killing the ascended and he's seeking them.
"So far from home I'm reeling I've seen the fall of friends The end of the road approaching I will have my victory"
Wielder is really old and he's not from Shurima. "The end of the road approaching I will have my victory" the edge might make him live longer but it needs power of all the ascended to truly make him invincible so it seems.
"I will not cease to be You will not ever stop me I won't give up the dream You cannot ever stop me"
He's invincible so nothing can stop him, and the Edge is strong enough to bring gods to their knees so you know... makes sense that you can't stop him.
"My destiny" Said many times in the song maybe about him being chosen by the Edge or he belives it's his destiny, we don't know anything about the lore of the sword so that's all.
Now that's everything, I hope you enjoyed it. I really wanted to tell people about it, and i don't think many people even know about these song existing and that they really fit into the lore.
(btw sorry for my english, it may not be perfect not first language)
