-Prologue-
When the war of the beasts brings about the world’s end,
The goddess descends from the sky.
Wings of light and dark spread afar,
She guides us to bliss, her gift everlasting.
-Act I-
The infinite mystery,
The gift of the goddess is what the three men seek.
But their fates are scattered by war.
One becomes a hero, one wanders the land,
And the last is taken prisoner.
But the three are still bound by a solemn oath,
To seek the answer together, once again.
-Act II-
Though the prisoner escapes, he is gravely wounded.
His life is saved, however,
By a woman of the opposing nation.
He begins a life of seclusion with her,
Which seems to hold the promise of eternal bliss.
But as happiness grows, so does guilt,
Of not fulfilling the oath to his friends.
-Act III-
As the war sends the world hurtling towards destruction,
The prisoner departs with his newfound love,
And embarks on a new journey.
He is guided by hope that the gift will bring bliss,
And the oath that he swore to his friends.
Though no oath is shared between the lovers,
In their hearts they know they will meet again.
-Act IV-
My friend, the fates are cruel.
There are no dreams, no honor remains.
The arrow has left the bow of the goddess.
My soul, corrupted by vengeance,
Hath endured torment, to find the end of the journey.
In my own salvation,
And your eternal slumber.
Legend shall speak
Of sacrifice at world’s end,
The wind sails over the water’s surface.
Quietly, but surely.
-Act V-
Even if the morrow is barren of promises,
Nothing shall forestall my return.
To become the dew that quenches the land,
To spare the sands, the seas, the skies.
I offer thee this silent sacrifice.
