What Is My Latin Name

Madness rages within me.

I start out with a flicker and then a flame.

I am very intense and uncontrollable.

I steal the soul of man.

I run the course of distruction and bring fourth pain.

I am king of all the elements.

My queen can only quinch my parched spirit.

I will draw you in with my eternal heat.

You cannot touch me, for I will inflict pain.

My name is fearless.

I am feared among people.

Thoes who speak my name are faithful to me.

The land is slave to me.

Nothing is left in my path.

I rage on until all is destroyed.

I dance over loss ruins.

My breath is like black powder, it attacks without warning.

Some respect me and follow me.

Others are apalled at my confidence.

Every second counts when running away from me.

I live on air it fuels and feeds my needs.

If you do not know me, you will sooner or later.

Beware for I will stalk you in your sleep.

I come like a theif.

What is my latin name of old?
