Bright Curse — The Fates

Fatum

Latin · « that which has been spoken »

In Roman thought, fatum was the word of the gods — destiny pronounced aloud, irrevocable, binding mortals and gods alike. Neither prayer nor will could unmake it. This album is a meditation on that sentence we all carry: the fate written before us, and the way we choose to walk toward it.
