Текст Van Canto — Prologue
Harmony was broken
The Five that should have been one became divided, each reverting into its own
nature. Only as the evil of the Fifth was realized, did the Four shape the
world one last time. But their power was too great to be unleashed without
powers
Harmony was broken
But the echoes of the World Song can still be heard. And through this,
the Four found their champions, calling them together. The elements would have
scoured the world and made it devoid of life, had not the Bard’s Call
checked
their terrible power
Much was lost that day. But the world was won. The Fifth fell into the depths
of the world, body rent asunder, mind broken. But even out of the defeat of the
Fifth, a new hope arose. Eight lands, blessed and cursed by its power
Harmony was broken
And yet peace returned. The Fifth defeated, the Four withdrew. What had been
wild and mutable became solid. History unfolded, the mortal races made the
world their own, as was ordained
The Fifth slipped into legend, the Four became myths. Both treachery and
sacrifice nothing more than stories. Stars, dancing through the night’s
sky
But I remember. For I can hear the songs on the wind, in the waves,
in the crackling of flames, rising from the very bones of the earth.
What has been forgotten may become known again. What lies hidden may be
revealed. What sleeps may wake. And with it all its terrors
Harmony was broken
And still the songs endure. I shall sing of the Five, of the return of the
Fifth, of evil old and unimaginable
I shall sing to mortal hearts and heavens alike
I shall sing — with a Voice of Fire!
