"What many believed was only a legend Was now lying in front of me... There it was... Erian's book of the holy angels... The testament of all the heavens... beckoning... to me... A black dragon made of stone stood guard over it Threatening with outstretched wings... As I drew closer, my heart pounded, but I cast off my fear... The next instant... I opened the book..." "What Erian had written 5000 years before Was now, finally, before their eyes." "Elf of the caves!" "Tarish, what in God's name are you doing?" "You... insane... fool!" "I do what must be done..." "Let him go!" "Agh!" "Ouh!" "Agah!" "Auh!" "Give me the book..." *pant* *pant* "and I will spare the life of this old wizard!" "Traitor..." "He knows not what he's doing!" "I know very well what I am doing… Hand it to me... Give it to me...! ...Or he will die!" "All right...! ...Take the book but let Iras go..." "Nooo...!" "Take it... from him!" "Fools...! This belongs to the Black Order..." "Leave it... leave it!" "Ahhh... I'm bleeding..." "Help him..." "Do not let him escape...! Go after him, we must have the book..." "I will return with it!" "As I lay wounded..." (Tot! Mox!) "An incredible pain shooting through my head..." (Luctum albax!) (Salva nos!) "I saw... Dargor, struggling with Tarish..."(Nova lux!) "he won!" (Tot! Mox!) "But before dying, the elf king was able to tear some pages... out of Erian's book... Then, everything turned... to black..."

YAW! YAAAAAAAW! Tarish, your blood coloured the snow Why, old friend, did you choose the lie? May your soul now rest in peace And still ascend to Heaven's glare Erian's words in our hands May dry the angels' frozen tears I feel the way is still so long This neverending tale will unfold Will unfold Old sacred wisdom Great hope for all men For countless kingdoms For the whole Known World Spirits of winter, lead our way Between the dangers of this cold land These ancient pages cannot be lost The glory of heavens clearly revealed Sinister voices trapped in the wind It's following us, dark, creeping Har-Kuun Silent snowfall, spare our lives The hardest journey still has not began Has not began Old sacred wisdom Great hope for all men For countless kingdoms For the whole Known World A new fate for gods and angels Shines in our hands (Shines in our hands!)

"When I regained consciousness, I could see Dargor And around him a mantel of snow Oh, friends of the beloved lands... we had survived! Though racked with pain, I called for the precious magic book I opened it and immediately realized how lucky we were Only a few pages were missing Those glorious words written by an angel Were there before my mortal eyes This was a sight I had lived my whole life Hoping one day to see..." "All the divine wisdom of the angels Was contained in those ancient pages Tired and weary they came upon the village of Nairin On the eastern side of the White Mountains Home to the little elves... There they could rest And Iras, after being cured by the elves' magic arts Could finally examine the mysteries of Erian's work But what he discovered in doing so, he never expected Erian's words were not only completely clear But they were tragic and prophetic as well A revelation of angels..."
