In Irish mythology, Balor of the Evil Eye (sometimes spelled Balar or Bolar) was a king of the Fomorians, a race of giants. His father was Buarainech and his wife was Cethlenn. According to legend, he lived on Tory Island.
Balor was notable for his eye in the middle of his forehead and one directly opposite at the back, which meant he couldn't be sneaked up on from behind. According to prophecy, Balor was to be killed by his grandson. To avoid his fate, he locked his daughter, Ethlinn, in a tower made of crystal to keep her from becoming pregnant. However, Cian, one of the Tuatha Dé Danann, with the help of the druidess Birog, managed to enter the tower. Ethlinn gave birth to triplets by him, but Balor threw them into the ocean. Birog saved one, Lugh, and gave him to Manannan mac Lir, who became his foster father. He was called Lugh Lamhfada and became a member of the Tuatha Dé Danann.
Lugh led the Tuatha in the second Battle of Magh Tuiredh against the Fomorians. Ogma disarmed Balor during this battle, but Balor killed Nuada with his eye. Lugh shot a sling-stone which drove Balor's eye out the back of his head, where it continued to wreak its deadly power on the Fomorian army. In other versions Lugh blinded Balor with a spear made by Goibniu, or decapitated him and used his eye against the Fomorians.

Genres: Action, Drama, Fantasy, Short,Near the shores of Toraigh,
Beneath the pounding waves
In shadowed depths
And dark embrace
In the dark abyss
Beyond the waves,
Balor of the strong blows
Lies in wait
From shadowed depths
Beyond the sea
Ablaze his eye
He will arise
Towers of glass,
Like icy blades
Rise up to the skies
When he's awake
Forgotten gods return to roam,
Standing stones begin to shriek,
When hope becomes despair,
In a world full of hate and greed
Balor waits no more,
Dark eyes lit with exultation,
A third eye opening,
Hurling bolts of lightning
Flesh and bone turn to ashes,
Sacrificial fires burn again
A thousand men slain, blood-red waves
Pounding upon the shores
As time is senseless,
As night is endless,
Reality is darkness,
Existence is emptiness
In shadowed depths
Of the black abyss
Born from dark mists
And raging storms
Forgotten gods return to roam,
Standing stones begin to shriek,
When hope becomes despair,
In a world full of hate and greed
The triumph of evil,
When good men stay silent,
Then Balor of the Evil Eye,
Has arisen from death
Black cloaked Balor, arisen from death
