Genre: Symphonic Power Metal, Powerwolf Style, Operatic Gothic Metal

Tempo: 150-170 BPM, epic and marching

Vocal: Male, theatrical low baritone in verses, operatic tenor/countertenor in choruses. Choir — multi-voiced Latin chanting with rhyming line endings.

Instruments: Church organ, heavy distorted guitars, marching drums, symphonic orchestra (strings, brass, timpani), sound effects (chains, cathedral echo, bell).

Atmosphere: Gothic cathedral dungeon, sacred ecstasy of pain, dark humor, power play between inquisitor and captive. The captive relishes the torment; the inquisitor might be the true prisoner.

Special Instructions: Latin in choruses must rhyme at the end of lines. In the bridge, whisper intimately. Final chorus explodes with maximum power. Throughout, maintain a theatrical, almost playful darkness. The voice should smirk even in pain.

Intro - 4 bars

(Triumphant church organ, choir whispers "Inquisitor... Inquisitor...". Heavy guitars and marching drums enter. Sound of chains rattling, cathedral echo. Male voice — low, theatrical, with a demonic smirk.)

In catacumbis...

In tenebris...

Ego captivus.

Tu iudex.

Et mihi placet.

Verse 1 - 8 bars

(Dense guitar riff, marching rhythm, organ in background. Male vocal — low, narrative, with growing ecstasy.)

В катакомбах инквизитора — тишь и мгла,

Твоя темница, ЭйРа, узка, как игла,

Но я в ней не кричу, не молю о пощаде,
