I found a copy of the epitath on a fan site, so here it is:
Yet to return, the shadowed one. Who quests for the Twilight Dragon Rumbles the Dark Hearth, And Helba, Queen of the Dark, has finally raised her army. Apeiron, King of Light beckons. At the base of the rainbow they meet Against the abominable Wave, together they fight. Alba's lake boils. Light's great tree doth fall. Power- now all to droplets turned in the temple of Arche Koeln. Returns to nothing, this world of shadowless ones. Never to return, the shadowless one, Who quests for the Twilight Dragon.
"Welle" Riding the Wave is Skeith, the Shadow of Death, to drown all that stands. Mirage of Deceit, Innis, Betray all with the flawed image, and did aid the Wave. And by the Power of Magus, a drop from the Wave doth reach the heavens, and creates a new Wave. With the Wave, Fidchell, the power to tell the dark future, hope darkens, sadness and despair rule. Gorre schemes when swallowed by the Cursed Wave. Macha seduces with the sweet trap. Wave reaches the Pinnacle, and escape none can. Tarvos still remains with more cruelty to punish and destroy. And with the turbulent destruction after the Wave. Only a void remains. From deep within the void arrives Corbenik.
Fragment 0 Shunning the field broken by Wave. The shadowed girl whispers, "Surely, I will return." Alas, the truth unbeknownst. Awaiting her at journey's end; Eternal mourning for her land.
Fragment 1 When the finger points to the yonder moon, The fool will not look at the fingertip.
Fragment 2 The whole cannot be changed. We have already lost that chance. Because the time left to us was short, We were mistaken in our path. But now do we realize, We should change not the whole, But the parts.
Fragment 3 Wave soars and shrouds the eyes. No means to fight an omnipresent force, The shadowless ones just grieve. Why must it be a Wave? Divide, if it would just... Then retaliate, we may.
Fragment 4 Over the Keel Mountains, Meets an ape with human speech. The ape asks, "What clings to you? Bear it - you cannot. Accept it - you cannot. But hidden - it is from you. Recite its name."
*Note: The answer is "your shadow--your own darkside." But since the riddle is to "recite its name", you are supposed to say your own name.

That isn't the whole epitaph. Just the beginning and fragments from the game. Here is the full epitaph.
Epitaph of the Twilight
Unknown where the Cursed Wave was born... After the stars doth cross the heavens... The sky in the East doth darken. And air doth fills with mourning. From the chosen land beyond the forest, A sign of the Wave comes. Riding the Wave is: Skeith, the Shadow of Death, to drown all that stands. Mirage of Deceit, Innis, Betray all with the flawed image, and did aid the Wave. And by the Power of Magus, a drop from the Wave doth reach the heavens, and creates a new Wave.
With the Wave, Fidchell, the power to tell the dark future, hope darkens, sadness and despair rule. Gorre schemes when swallowed by the Cursed Wave. Macha seduces with the sweet trap. Wave reaches the Pinnacle, and escape none can. Tarvos still remains with more cruelty to punish and destroy. And with the turbulent destruction after the Wave. Only a void remains. From deep within the void arrives Corbenik.
Yet to return, the shadowed one. Who quests for the Twilight Dragon Rumbles the Dark Hearth, And Helba, Queen of the Dark, has raised finally her army. Apeiron, King of Light, beckons... At the base of the rainbow they meet. Against the abominable "Wave," together they fight. Alba's lake boils. Light's great tree doth fall. Power - all now to droplets turned in the temple of Arche Koeln. Returns to nothing, this world of shadowless ones. Never to return, the shadowless one. Who quests for the Twilight Dragon.
The wife buffeted by "waves" turns her back on the field. The daughter that waited for the shadows repeated, "For sure... For sure I can go home." But the girl did not know... The truth that waited at the end of the journey The eternal mourning of her land.
In the place of the calamitous, only life was known. After the circling stars When the eastern dark void, the air full of despair In the depths of the divided forest, in the land of Karma,
Riding fast on the path is Skeith Bearing death's shadow, it eliminates all that seek to thwart it. The Confusing Mirage, Innis Deceives those that see it with illusions, rescues the waves
The wave soaring high, when its head is smashed, A new wave will emerge To become Magus's power. When questioning the wave, Hope's light will be lost when he speaks of the dark future of where sorrow and resignation reign. Using Fiddlehiem's Technique
When engulfed by the Waves of Calamity, Gorre will plan The sweet snare of conciliation is Macha The Waves, an exceeding maelstrom Nothing can escape
When you think you have escaped, Tarvos exists To destroy those with his exceeding cruelty Upon violent requital, only to remain is the void, the vacant darkness is the harbinger that Corbenik is to appear.
