Onufri

Onufri or Onouphrios of Neokastro (Greek: Ονούφριος) was an Orthodox icon painter and Archpriest of Elbasan, active in the 16th century in southern Albania and south-western Macedonia. His works are characterized by post-Byzantine and Venetian influences. He also painted portraits, landscapes, and churches.

Life

Little is known with certainty about Onufri's life and his existence only emerged in the early 20th century. Regarding his birthplace only an inscription in the Holy Apostles church, near Kastoria has survived. Onufri is believed to have been born in the early 16th century either in the region of Berat (in today's Albania) or near Kastoria or Grevena (in today's northern Greece). The epithet Argitis, which appears in a fresco near Kastoria may point to Argos (southern Greece) as his place of birth, although as he used it only once it is regarded probable that it refers to a location in the area of Kastoria. He was educated in the Republic of Venice and was a member of the Greek Brotherhood of Venice.

The War Machine Embodiment

by: Inferi

Inside the belly of a beast made of flesh and steel
My flesh and blood no longer seem so real
Inside this war machine that has blurred my sight
Distorting my vision of what's wrong or right
Blistering speed with a barrage of no mercy
Is the only thing fueling me to breathe
I am the future breed created through pure insanity
Simply shut off it I decide to think
I am the war machine
Forced to lead, bleed the weak
Lead by wicked hearts full of deceit
The war machine
Blistering speed with a barrage of no mercy
Is the only thing fueling me to breathe
I am the war machine
Forced to lead, bleed the weak
Lead by wicked hearts full of deceit
The war machine
All guns are locked and loaded
I am the weapon of mass destruction
This is the Armageddon of man
The time has come to unleash the master plan
Devastation and the ruins of man
Barren lands and blood soaked hands
Seek and destroy all survivors, nothing left but sand
I am the future breed created through pure insanity
Simply shut off it I decide to think
I am the war machine
Forced to lead, bleed the weak
Lead by wicked hearts full of deceit
