The fourth and final chapter of the "Emerald Sword" saga.
"Gargoyles, Angels of Darkness" is split into three parts:
1. Angeli di Pietra Mistica
2. Warlords' Last Challenge
3. ...and the Legend Ends...
Each part of the song has it's own index in the cue sheet, which means that they can be ripped as separate tracks.
