Dies irae, Dies illa, solvet saeclum in favilla. Teste David cum Sibylla.
“Day of wrath and doom impending, David’s word with Sibyl’s blending, Heaven and earth in ashes ending.”
I look forward to a heroic struggle on your part, Zonnenkind.
You are all too late, I am afraid. My gold shall impregnate the canvas of this universe.
(Back to Ren, and it will be alternating between him and Reinhard now as both do their incantations.)
Not yet. This is just the beginning.
Marie’s a brilliant jewel, it is her very fragment that will expand ever further.
Her world will never be tinged by your hue. For I know this…
Es schaumt das Meer in breiten Flussen, Am tiefen Grund der Felsen auf.
“Vast is the sea, its waves reaching horizons far and wide; eternal is the radiance of its azure womb.”
Quantus tremor est futurus, Quando iudex est venturus, Cuncta stricte discussurus.
“Oh, what fear man’s bosom rendeth, when from heaven the Judge descendeth, on whose sentence all dependeth.”
Till we chance up something we have yet to ravage — the very cosmos, all Creation, from the triflest speck of dust to the summit of snow-laden mountains.
Und Fels und Meer wird fortgerissen In ewig schnellem Spharenlauf.
“And so let us ride this moment and dash forth, swift as light, quick as a star eternal.”
And so I soar, swifter than all that live under the stars, till the ends of this earth… for I can feel in my heart the presence of friends I have made this journey with. Together.
Erii: Oh my, Ren just can’t quite catch a break, can he?
So please… lend me a hand, will you?
Unmotivated as usual, I see. That part of him will never change.
Our thoughts, our hearts… are in complete harmony.
Doch deine Boten, Herr, verehren Das sanfte Wandeln deines Tags.
“Hear my plea, and grant this one wish: the world longs for an era of peace; days that know not strife.”
Aye, and so the crimson flames of war shall rise to grant me the peace I’ve longed for… eradicating all, till nothing is left.
Tuba mirum spargens sonum, Per sepulchra regionum, Coget omnes ante thronum.
“Wondrous sound the trumpet flingeth; Through earth’s sepulchres it ringeth; All before the throne it bringeth.”
Rise, my brethren*; rise, my soldiers* — well forth and fill the realm till its veins burst open.
*Weltall
Lacrimosa dies illa, qua resurget ex favilla, Iudicandus homo reus. Huic ergo parce, Deus.
“From the dust of earth returning, Man for judgement must prepare him; Spare, O God, in mercy spare him.”
And had I not met you, Marie… I would have remained a child, blissfully ignorant…
…to never once feel as strongly about someone as I do now. And so I sing:
Auf freiem Grund mit freiem Volke stehn. Zum Augenblicke durft ich sagen:
“In a world where only peace is lord, and men join hands in liberty… Allow me to sing but this, O maiden:”
Marie: I love you, Ren. I want to be with you forever.
I love her. I truly do, from the bottom of my heart.
Verweile doch du bist so schon――
“Let the flow of Time halt in its tracks! For the world is but a shade beneath your beauty!
We, all as one, will join hands to defeat Reinhard.
Das Ewig-Weibliche Zieht uns hinan!
“I wish upon your unending star — guide me to heights unknown, O Maiden!”
Pie Iesu Domine, dona eis requiem. Amen.
“Lord, all-pitying, Jesus blest, Grant them thine eternal rest. Amen.”
Mercurius: Dear ladies and gentlemen, if you would be so kind as to behold my finest opera, now in the making.
Ren & Reinhard: Atziluth――!!
