This video features the new version of "Sword” recorded in 2019 by Anton Kruglov (Raistlin) and Rostislav Kolpakov (Caramon). Since then it has been performed in place of “Victory” in Creative Lab STAIRWAY’s productions of “The Last Trial.”

*Turn on English subtitles to sing along! Lyrical English Translation: AFTERMATH Caramon: The sword feels every heartbeat with its blade, Transfixing flesh and making blood flow freely. I could have chosen any road to take, But who was it that brought me down this way, Deciding I should make this fateful journey? Was it the Hand of Providence that led, Or by the lure of Evil was I tempted? For what has glory crowned me with its wreath? For what, by drawing judgment from its sheath, Have I stained these two hands with unjust bloodshed? Together: Each of us gained his own reward When we were tested in the forge. Raistlin: The gate that I so long have sought. Caramon: A shameful triumph marred with loss. Together: Heartache weighs heavy on the sword, But nothing can reverse the road I've taken. Raistlin: The grace you've lost a new God will restore. Caramon: But can He cleanse the crimson from my sword? O sword, ordained with glory, you've been tainted.
*Turn on English subtitles to sing along! Lyrical English Translation: TEMPTATION BY COMPASSION King-Priest: I am here to tell you in confidence Our encounter is no coincidence. Sister, I believe in God’s Providence And the coming trial He’s planned for us... In preaching God’s wisdom, I soon grew complacent: I thought there was no one the Truth couldn’t change. I thought my compassion was what made me strong… So like yourself, so very wrong. Back then I was proud, and I fervently warn you: This path, I’m afraid, is the path of a fool. Not so very simple, not so very crude Are those like me, are those like you. Don’t deny it! The fact is we’re much alike. You and I have been blessed by Paladine, But the last trial we must overcome Is against the compassion tempting us! Humility’s not finding good in the rotten But knowing all people innately are flawed. That’s why it’s with firmness one must lead the flock. That’s why I’m the shepherd, the Chosen of God. Let nations graze blindly, without any worry. Too heavy for them is the right to be free. Let that be a burden for others to keep… For those like you! For those like me! Crysania: You take on more than you should, Father, Sacrifice love for the law’s letter. No, a lash cannot instill doctrine. A golden cage cannot replace heaven. No, that is not what the Lord has taught! King-Priest: Are you really convinced of what you tout? Sister, tell me, are you immune to doubt? Don’t you question how much your love is worth? That it’s really enough to save the world? ... I’ve hidden the Gates, but even so I still knew A threat would come, aided by someone like you. The shepherd knows pity is just for the weak. Show strength! Tell me, where is the one whom I seek? (She is silent) My decision is not an easy one. I already lament what must be done, But the last trial I shall overcome Is the temptation of compassion!
*Turn on English subtitles to sing along! Lyrical English Translation: THE RETURNED LETTER Caramon: Look here, my dear friends. Raistlin sent my letter back. It wasn’t read... It wasn’t even opened. And there it says, “I have no brother...” No brother... No brother! No brother! Yet, there was a time, not long ago, When back to back we fought, United for one cause, as brothers ought! No brother?! As children - did I not protect him then? But he needs no protecting anymore. No brother! We’re brothers nevermore! Love, pour the wine; let’s say goodbye To that young maple tree. The one we planted - he and I. It’s fallen tragically! Against my brutish axe, It never stood a chance... Tika: Caramon, I’m fed up with your drama! I’ve put up with much more than I should! Guests: Oh, would ya stop nagging him, Tika? He’ll stop drinking tomorrow for good! Tika: What a drunken Goliath I married! So befuddled he broke down the door! Crysania: Are you saying that HE’S a Majere? Guest: Well, his mother had said she was sure. Guests: Good grief, he should really Quit drinking and brawling. There’s no place he goes Without making a scene. Majere was somebody People respected, But now he’s becoming A bit of a pest! It’s all these adventures: The dungeons and dragons Turn everyone bitter, Inevitably. There’s no need to wander By land or by sea. When you’re born in a village, It’s where you should be! Maybe it’s crazy Hoping he changes. Frankly, his family Has always been stranger than strange! Tika: Scold or plea, what’s the point? He’ll ignore me. What a blot on the family’s good name! Crysania: But his brother was subtle and courtly... Guest: Yeah, they’re twins, but they’re hardly the same! Tika: See the way that he toys with his brother, (holds letter demonstratively) Giving no thought to how much it hurts! May damnation take him and his tower! May his magic forever be cursed! Get up, lazy drunk! Caramon: My love, enough... Guests: Good grief, we should really Confront those magicians. They’re long overdue For a slap on the wrist. Majere was seen as a Hero to Solace, But look at him now - He’s a pitiful mess! It’s all these adventures: The swordplay and magic Turn everyone bitter, Inevitably. There’s no need to wander By land or by sea. When you’re born in a village, It’s where you should be! (Crysania leaves) Tika: I fear the priestess has lost her mind... Well, don’t stand there still as stone! Are you a man or what? You can’t let her go alone. No mistake - it’s your brother’s fault. He’s tampered inside her head. So, go on and bring her back. Have you heard a word I’ve said? Here - take your ruddy sword, And grab your helmet, too. I’m done with them rusting here! Protect the one who needs you! Women: (Demanding) Go forth, and protect her! Men: (Dubious) Protect her, if ya dare...
*Turn on English subtitles to sing along! Lyrical English Translation: TIKA'S WARNING Tika: The Wayreth Forest? Could you be joking? My lady, let go of this notion! Whoever tricked you into going Obviously has a dark intention... Hidden there is an ancient tower. Magi guard it with all their power, And they say only those with magic Find their way through its dark enchantment. In that mass of a thousand dead trees, Who can say what you might find lurking? Lost forever, there’s no returning. No survivors can tell the story. Men: In that tangled mass of dead trees, Who can say what might be lurking? Once inside, there’s no returning. None survive to tell the story! Crysania: So I suppose no one else will go? Even if just to the edge of the forest? Well, I’ll go alone. Men: It’s death to attempt it! You’re crazy, priestess! Tika: Just wait for my husband to guide you at least! Men: Yes, wait for Majere! He’s bold, and he’s daring! Majere is perfect for this kind of quest! Crysania: Majere? Men and Women: Majere! Majere! Heroic Majere! What better companion than good Caramon? Majere! Majere! Heroic Majere! As brave as he’s handsome - and, look, here he comes!
*Turn on English subtitles to sing along! Lyrical English Translation: SOLACE Tika: Who had a plate of the spiced potatoes? Here, let me pour you some more to drink! This round’s a free one - take it as my treat. Hey fella - watch it! This wife is not a cheat. Men: If your man’s around, then where is he now? You’re working so hard, but he’s disappeared. Women: Oh, mind your own business! She’s got our assistance. So have a seat, dear. We can take it from here. Crysania: Good people of Solace! I am looking for someone to take me through the Wayreth Forest.
*Turn on English subtitles to sing along! Lyrical English Translation: TIKA'S LEGEND Tika: The legend’s forgotten but still, to this day, The truth that was written remains quite the same: It’s love that can make the impossible happen It’s love that can make the impossible happen It's love that will always unlock any gate Unlock any gate…. There once was a wizard, a servant of night He dreamt of a maiden dressed purely in white So fearful and helpless, her arms weakly reaching She begged the young wizard, “Please answer my plight!” The Dark Lady tortured her in the Abyss And he languished for her from the land above He opened the gates to the realm of Takhisis, And ventured below for the sake of his love! In songs long forgotten, they told of the way He carried the maiden from that awful place The schemes of Takhisis would prove to be useless The love in his heart overpowered his fear! The love in his heart overpowered his fear!
*Turn on English subtitles to sing along! Lyrical English Translation: APPOINTMENT IN THE CHRONICLER’S STUDY Raistlin: Greetings, most Revered Daughter. Crysania: Greetings, mage. Crysania: I’ve heard a lot... Raistlin: I’ve heard much... Both: ... about you. Crysania: I have brought a warning from Paladine. He’s aware of what you’re planning to do. In a dream he sent an ominous sign, Which I’m here to discuss with you. Even those within your circle of peers Dare not mention your name, Fearing you from the shadows. No one’s brave enough to stand in your way, But you’ll find I am not the same. You must repent while there’s still time! You must heed the voice of Paladine! Raistlin: (Sarcastic) You speak for heaven? Is that all? Please, priestess, don’t be so humble... I’m certain you witnessed an omen. Your faith was never in question. But could it be an assumption To label me as the villain? Your soul is pure like newly fallen snow, And yes, you’re fearless - That much clearly shows. But maybe you misread His true intent And helping me’s the reason you’ve been sent. Crysania: Me? Help you? Raistlin: Hear my philosophy, and maybe then you’ll see The person you debate is not the foe you’ve painted. Crysania: Then by all means proceed, And rest assured, good mage, I’ll listen closely. Raistlin: Don’t you think your gracious God Designed the world according to a plan? If so, then the Dark belongs, For all was as he wished when time began. Wouldn’t you agree that He Can keep the Dark from getting out of hand? Crysania: God is in command! Raistlin: Equal wings of black and white Suspend the planet, keeping it aflight. Dark is neither wrong nor right; It balances the power of the Light. Toward the sun the sprout may rise, But underground the seed was granted life. Crysania: It’s as you say... Raistlin: Common is the fallacy That evil makes the dark magician dark, When he just as easily Could have a goal of good within his heart. Someone who manipulates the strength Takhisis grants - that’s a dark mage. Crysania: He’s but Her slave. Raistlin: Her slave... and foe. Did you know the Queen of Night Was trapped in the Abyss by a dark mage? Did you know that both the light And dark magicians swore to guard its gates? Let me be condemned, but there’s No stopping me from going through with this... I’ll breach the Abyss! Crysania: You won’t succeed! (Raistlin begins coughing) Majere... Raistlin - What is wrong? Raistlin: It’s nothing... Let us finish with our talk. Crysania: I could soothe your pain, if you won’t mind. Raistin: Please do, that’s very kind... I see you truly care, despite your preconceptions. Crysania: I’m sure the temple could relieve this affliction. Raistlin: No. It’s not to be... I’ll end concisely, since what I’ve told you for now suffices. If you want answers, the truth will guide you. Maybe you’ll stop me, maybe you’ll help me - Whichever your God deems worthy. Choose wisely, but till then farewell.
*Turn on English subtitles to sing along! Lyrical English Translation: PLAYING WITH FIRE Crysania: Every day with every prayer, Longing for what wasn’t there, My soul has waited for its chance to shine. Now finally set ablaze, there’s no dousing this flame. Who knew I would find it within his eyes? So let fire wound my hands! I’ll prove what I can withstand. What’s gained through fear but strife? Through pain, love will survive! Yes, I know the risk I take, But let the dice fall where they may. I’ll beat him in this deadly game or lose it all. Face to face… Eye to eye... He is my foe... He is my friend! Hear my heartbeat race! Don’t separate our burning hands, my Father. And let me fight with fire, even if just once... Just once... Just once! He locked me into a staredown - I daren’t look away now. This trial is mine to conquer - And also my great honor! I shall reclaim for you this wayward monster. In this I believe: Your proudest foe will kneel down at your feet! My faith shall not waver. Just give me one chance. My faith shall not waver!
*Turn on English subtitles to sing along! Lyrical English Translation: BENEATH THE VEIL OF ISIS Image of Takhisis: I’m Birth and Destruction I’m Stillness and Motion I’m Peace and Contention Rise and Degradation Image of Crysania: I’m what you are seeking And what you’re avoiding I’m what you are craving Image of Takhisis: And you’re denying! Image of Crysania: I casually walk in I came out of nowhere Image of Takhisis: I always have been here And always will be here Image of Crysania: I take on the image Image of Takhisis: Of what you imagine Together: Of a deadly passion Of life and compassion Image of Crysania: My faces are countless Image of Takhisis: Incarnations countless Image of Crysania: I’m your cry of anguish Image of Takhisis: And your moan of pleasure Together: Wander in the darkness Tell me what my name is I take on the image Of what you imagine Make your choice now, mage It’s so easy - reach for me Take a measured step Lift the veil that hides my face! Image of Takhisis: I’m heaven above you Image of Crysania: I’m chasm below you Image of Takhisis: A prayer of salvation Image of Crysania: A curse of damnation Image of Takhisis: I’m your mother Raistlin! Image of Crysania: I’m your demise Raistlin! Image of Takhisis: Your foe, your resister Image of Crysania: Your bride and your sister Together: My faces are countless Incarnations countless I’m your cry of anguish And your moan of pleasure Image of Takhisis: Ponder all the clues and Follow where they lead you Tear the veil away - Reveal the shrouded figure! Together: The magician’s wisdom Fails him in the darkness Image of Takhisis: Recognize your ruin! Image of Crysania: Recognize your blessing! Together: Either hope or failure Faithlessness or courage Know the right decision Step in that direction! Make your choice now, mage… Raistlin: Who are you? Show your face!

I fear that I’ve ruined the game you were playing It was so lovely... I just couldn’t help watching Black and white truly make quite the pairing And here I considered your heart to be hopelessly cold Raistlin: You appear whenever you sense a weakness When I lose control for a careless reason But this time your joke missed the mark and fell flat I’ll cope with obsession... I’m in command... In my soul you’re seeing the weed of passion Sprouting from a seed I myself planted Love grew from compassion and lust for glory Nurtured by the poison that I’ve been pouring! Takhisis: Even if her love is what you contrived, Still, I know you’re longing to stay by her side All your frozen walls love will melt away! Raistlin, you have power but love is greater Yes, love is greater Raistlin: Wrapped around my finger - the love-stricken priestess She once was strong, self-assured, and fearless... And she was smart - now she’s like my puppet! Love should bring me joy, but it’s agony instead Mustn’t be seduced by the trap I’ve laid I won’t be duped by my own creation Mustn’t be returning false affection Conquered and deluded by sweet temptation! Takhisis: Even if her love is no more than pride (R: Simply pride - that’s all it really is) Still, it holds a power you know you can’t fight (R: Still I can’t fight back against its power) So forget your goal - let this be enough! (R: Just forget my goal?) Surely your desire is just to be loved… Both: Loved… To be loved... Raistlin: Give it all a rest: I’m no simple child You know there’s no question that love is lie Folly is the fate of those whom love renders blind I need no one at all! What are they to me? Just a faithful sword! Just the master key! For the greatest of kings, love’s a fatal trap To subvert his rule! To destroy the fool! Takhisis: Love means everything... Raistlin: But power’s dearer still Takhisis: Open up your heart... Raistlin: To be struck down and killed? Takhisis: You’ll find love at last Raistlin: It’s all another trap! I prefer being alone I don’t need anyone I don’t need anyone I don’t need anyone Caramon: And here I thought it was a lie That you would sell love for a song But now I see the lies were only mine Take care, my twin. It’s time I moved on...
*Turn on English subtitles to sing along! Lyrical English Translation: LEGEND OF THE ABYSS Takhisis: There once was a wizard, a servant of night. He dreamt of a maiden dressed purely in white. So fearful and helpless, her arms weakly reaching, She begged the dark wizard, “Don’t leave me to die!” Afraid she would suffer a terrible fate, He rushed off to free her and unlocked the Gates, But then the Abyss, with its jaws gaping open, Triumphantly caught and devoured its prey. Falling for the bait of the tortured maiden, He unlocked the Gates, thinking love would save them. How it really ends, you and I know better: Evil rose again with its reign of terror The poets say that love will be the world’s great redeemer, But that’s a bogus claim that you and I can refute. The rivers run crimson, the world burns from warfare, All for the love of a fool! While poets were twisting the story askew, The magi made sure no one else could get through. For all but worst enemies, there’d be no entry, In hopes love would never be stronger than feud. Now locked up again, the fair maiden awaits Where one little key guarantees her escape. The most incompatible love brings together. It’s love that will always unlock any gate! Love could be the answer to save all people If it weren’t abused for their pride and evil. But it would appear nothing ever changes: Love has been a weapon for countless ages. The poets say that love will be the world’s great redeemer, But love is rarely quite as pure as what they describe. And if that’s the payment the Gates should require, The price is not that high!

(Aloud) Miscreant, I heard you were caught red-handed! (Quietly) Have you lost your feeble senses? (Aloud) I could leave you rotting in here for life!

This man’s a champion worthy of our King-Priest! Chorus: Bring him into the ring! Bring the fighter! King-Priest: Make the final preparations! Chorus: Bring him into the ring! Bring the fighter!

Lyrical English Translation: WIZARDS’ CONCLAVE Par-Salian: Today the whole Conclave is gathered in this darkest hour The world and the balance of magic are badly exposed I’m told that Majere is playing with dangerous power Inform us, Dalamar, of all that you know Dalamar: It brings me no pleasure betraying my own teacher like this, But, frankly, his devilry can’t be excused Majere is searching Istar for the Gates of the Abyss, Which means he’s breaking our greatest taboo And we in return must renounce the accused! Wizards: Death to Majere! Condemn the abjurer! We've never had a worse freak in our ranks He's a freak! We are united in what we've decided: We must destroy this foul renegade! Par-Salian: That’s easy to say, but he won’t be so easily conquered Remember, we tried that before when the whelp took the test? Instead we set loose from the tower a much stronger monster So who will have courage to stop his deplorable quest? Wizards: We know the horror of his reputation! Everyone’s fearful, and rightfully so We are united in what we’ve decided: Dalamar is the one we’ve chosen to go Dalamar: To backstab my teacher would be rather unlike me But, still, I can help you unravel his plot The Spell of the Gates was mislaid, None could say where it might be, But I’ve had a remarkable teacher and I’ve read a lot: “He who desires to unlock the Gates of Night Endeavors at the mercy of his hated foe For if the Mage is hindered by a Cleric of the Light, All of his efforts shall be doomed- As fate foretold.” And now, I shall reveal your secret weapon Behind this very door - the Wrath of Heaven: Fairest Crysania, blessed child of Paladine Renowned for her belief and strength divine Crysania: Takhisis won’t escape; I won’t allow it Dalamar: She’ll lend a helping hand To win herself the glory, And go on our behalf To smite our enemy! If I may boldly propose a solution: Teleport her to the gates of Istar! Teleport her to the gates of Istar! Par Salian: Clerics are well known to be narrow-minded Dalamar: If that’s the case then we hold all the cards Wizards: She will prevail By her God she is guided! Teleport her to Istar, Dalamar Teleport her to Istar, Dalamar Dalamar…

And there it says, “I have no brother...” No brother... No brother! No brother! Yet, there was a time, not long ago, When back to back we fought, United for one cause, as brothers ought! No brother?! As children - did I not protect him then? But he needs no protecting anymore. No brother! We’re brothers nevermore! Love, pour the wine; let’s say goodbye To that young maple tree. The one we planted - he and I. It’s fallen tragically! Against my brutish axe, It never stood a chance...
*Turn on English subtitles to sing along! Lyrical English Translation: PLAYING WITH FIRE Crysania: Every day with every prayer, Longing for what wasn’t there, My soul has waited for its chance to shine. Now finally set ablaze, there’s no dousing this flame. Who knew I would find it within his eyes? So let fire wound my hands! I’ll prove what I can withstand. What’s gained through fear but strife? Through pain, love will survive! Yes, I know the risk I take, But let the dice fall where they may. I’ll beat him in this deadly game or lose it all. Face to face… Eye to eye... He is my foe... He is my friend! Hear my heartbeat race! Don’t separate our burning hands, my Father. And let me fight with fire, even if just once... Just once... Just once! He locked me into a staredown - I daren’t look away now. This trial is mine to conquer - And also my great honor! I shall reclaim for you this wayward monster. In this I believe: Your proudest foe will kneel down at your feet! My faith shall not waver. Just give me one chance. My faith shall not waver!

Crysania: I’ve heard a lot... Raistlin: I’ve heard much... Both: ... about you. Crysania: I have brought a warning from Paladine. He’s aware of what you’re planning to do. In a dream he sent an ominous sign, Which I’m here to discuss with you. Even those within your circle of peers Dare not mention your name, Fearing you from the shadows. No one’s brave enough to stand in your way, But you’ll find I am not the same. You must repent while there’s still time! You must heed the voice of Paladine! Raistlin: (Sarcastic) You speak for heaven? Is that all? Please, priestess, don’t be so humble... I’m certain you witnessed an omen. Your faith was never in question. But could it be an assumption To label me as the villain? Your soul is pure like newly fallen snow, And yes, you’re fearless - That much clearly shows. But maybe you misread His true intent And helping me’s the reason you’ve been sent. Crysania: Me? Help you? Raistlin: Hear my philosophy, and maybe then you’ll see The person you debate is not the foe you’ve painted. Crysania: Then by all means proceed, And rest assured, good mage, I’ll listen closely. Raistlin: Don’t you think your gracious God Designed the world according to a plan? If so, then the Dark belongs, For all was as he wished when time began. Wouldn’t you agree that He Can keep the Dark from getting out of hand? Crysania: God is in command! Raistlin: Equal wings of black and white Suspend the planet, keeping it aflight. Dark is neither wrong nor right; It balances the power of the Light. Toward the sun the sprout may rise, But underground the seed was granted life. Crysania: It’s as you say... Raistlin: Common is the fallacy That evil makes the dark magician dark, When he just as easily Could have a goal of good within his heart. Someone who manipulates the strength Takhisis grants - that’s a dark mage. Crysania: He’s but Her slave. Raistlin: Her slave... and foe. Did you know the Queen of Night Was trapped in the Abyss by a dark mage? Did you know that both the light And dark magicians swore to guard its gates? Let me be condemned, but there’s No stopping me from going through with this... I’ll breach the Abyss! Crysania: You won’t succeed! (Raistlin begins coughing) Majere... Raistlin - What is wrong? Raistlin: It’s nothing... Let us finish with our talk. Crysania: I could soothe your pain, if you won’t mind. Raistin: Please do, that’s very kind... I see you truly care, despite your preconceptions. Crysania: I’m sure the temple could relieve this affliction. Raistlin: No. It’s not to be... I’ll end concisely, since what I’ve told you for now suffices. If you want answers, the truth will guide you. Maybe you’ll stop me, maybe you’ll help me - Whichever your God deems worthy. Choose wisely, but till then farewell.

Still, I saw your sign - so I have to try! I’m the one who was meant to cross the dark path he walks. I have never faced the Dark, but I’m not afraid. Even if his eyes are cursed, I won’t look away. You sent me this dream, so afford me strength To tame fire and yet emerge with my hands unburned. Lord I do Thy will, not my will but Thine! Paladine and Crysania: This is Thy will, not mine! Crysania: Thy will be done, Lord, not my will but Thine! Paladine and Crysania: This is Thy will, not mine. Crysania: This is Thy will, not mine. Paladine and Crysania: This is Thy will, not mine.

I think a small reunion wouldn’t hurt your health. In fact, you’ll feel much better in the end. Raistlin: Your prattling annoys me, Caramon! I put my plan in motion long ago. You hover like a nursemaid over me! You've always been the one with everything! You think it’s easy being sick and weak? While you’re the people’s hero, I’m the freak! You don’t know what it feels like. You’ve never understood me! All will be very different, one day, when I’ve ascended. All will be very different, one day, when I ascend - Ascend to Godhood!

These eyes bewitch you and promise your doom. You’re at the edge! Any closer, you’ll perish. And yet you’re drawn like a moth to my flame. To feel Godly might?

Even God tends to change His mind Leaving no one the world can trust He that witnessed what Darkness wrought Nevermore shall believe in light Faith in goodness was all for naught And his eyes shall not suffer lies Like the sand in an hourglass Light descends, filtered through these eyes Borrowed power demands a price, And the payback is close at hand! Make a choice when faced with a beast Strike to kill or else leave it be For the one who rose from the flames Grew more powerful through the pain! He that witnessed what Darkness wrought Nevermore shall believe in light Faith in goodness was all for naught And his eyes shall not suffer lies

He lifted the maiden and dried all her tears Raistlin: After all of these years) The schemes of Takhisis would prove to be useless (Raistlin: I will search in the dark) The love in his heart overpowered his fear. (Raistlin: Love’s in the dark) The love in his heart... (Raistlin: But can love really help…) ... Overpowered his fear! (Raistlin: ... Overpower my fear?) Takhisis: Who’s going on about love? The very same witch who abandoned her children! You’ve tantalized him enough! The choice you’re regretting cannot be undone! I let you appear in his torturous dreams You served as the bait that has lured him to me! Ghost of Rosamun: Your love is there - Go find it within the dark! (Raistlin: Is love within the dark?) Just follow love - And you’ll be yourself again! (Raistlin: I’ll be myself again?) Let love melt away all the ice in your heart (Raistlin/Takhisis: Can love burn in my/your heart...)

My prayers were, after all, my only talent, As magic was for you your only gift. Raistlin: Your prayers were, after all, your only talent, As magic was for me my only gift. The stars fell by the dozens out of heaven. The light within my staff became subdued. Your God has gone - He's left you as an orphan. My time has gone - and I've been orphaned too. Crysania: My God has gone - He's left me as an orphan. Your time has gone - and you've been orphaned too. Together: The future generations will judge rashly... Condemning every aspect of our quest. Crysania: My false pride - that was all that once possessed me. Raistlin: My false pride - that was all I once possessed. Crysania: My false pride - that was all that once possessed me. Raistlin: My false pride - that was all I once possessed. Together: My body may be older, my soul tired, But youth cannot be measured or defined.

You are the victors, and your point’s been proven: God’s nothing with no world; it’s nothing without Him! But, still, He’s able to at least do one thing: He shall not carry out this plan of ruin. You are the victors, and your point’s been proven. I shan’t repent, nor wallow in self-pity. I don't need your advice - your noble preaching. How can a mortal teach a god perfection? What I was lacking yet remains a mystery. I shan’t repent, nor wallow in self-pity.

Our life began with sharing a womb, And we’ll end it here, sharing a tomb. Raistlin: I can’t believe you’re him… my once so loyal twin. The brother that I knew would never act like you. He’d put his trust in me. He’d follow me through fire… Caramon: The fire you unleashed became that brother’s pyre! Takhisis: Make your choice now Make your choice now, Make your choice now, mage!

Before me there’s a thousand roads to take, But under me the ground is giving way, And silently, the darkness gathers ‘round me. Was it the Hand of Providence that led? Or by the lure of Evil were you tempted? If I ignore the bond that brothers share, If I become the blade to do what’s fair, I might then understand what Fate intended. Each of us gained his own reward, When we were tested in the forge. I lost it all, but stood my ground To walk the Path of Truth I’ve found. Heartache weighs heavy on the sword, But stepping on this path, I must go forward. I feel as though cruel duty or cruel fate Has struck me blind. I’m following the blade... The blade aimed for the heart of My twin brother.

The slashes from my axe still mark its charred remains, But this is not my world - not this awful place! Here is the heaven you promised me once! But compared to hell there’s hardly a difference. All we had: wiped from existence; You took all, leaving ashes and dust. Please tell me - where’s my dearest wife? Please tell me - where’s my love and life? What is this? Upon the gravestone...?

You forced open the gate that you held so precious But God created the world without any malice One who hasn't a heart cannot hope to create life Shame that the trial of love ended only in strife!

The truth of the legend has largely decayed, So no one remembers the warning it made: The most incompatible - love brings together It’s love that will always unlock any gate. There once was a wizard, a servant of night He dreamt of maiden dressed purely in white She made him a promise to love him forever She desperately begged him, “Don’t leave me to die!” Forgetting what dangers were lying in wait, He chased after passion and unlocked the Gates Instead of him finding the bliss of sweet pleasure, The darkness prevailed and devoured its prey Falling for the bait of the maiden’s promise, He unlocked the Gates - and released Takhisis! How it really ends - You and I know better! Evil rose again with its reign of terror! The poets say that love will be the world’s great redeemer, But as for you and I, we know that’s simply untrue The rivers run crimson, the world burns from warfare All for the love of a fool! The magi conceived a reliable scheme, But it had a flaw that was never foreseen: As long as fair maidens exist here upon Krynn, There’s no greater danger than what love can bring! I lured her to open the Gates at my side, But rather than I, it is she who will die I knew from the start, we’d have to trade places Because love is nothing but death in disguise! Yes, I fell in love - I shall not deny it, But it was a means to my true desire Now that it’s attained, you’re no longer needed! From my heart I’m tearing this mortal weakness! Crysania: No! Don’t go! Don’t leave me! You can’t do this to me! Come back! Raistlin: The poets say that love will be the world’s great redeemer, But fate is rarely quite as fair as what we would like! If love is the payment to gain godly power... The price is not that high... The price is not that high. The price is not that high!

I’m ready for any ordeal! Agony and death I take upon myself Through darkness, all alone, To reach your heart I’ll go - This I sincerely vow! Entrust your heart to my care And I pray in my hands It may suddenly beat anew The life I was given by God, Every moment that’s mine, I would sacrifice all for you This I can do, all in the name of love Take my very soul - I only ask you live I only ask you live Please live!

Teenager: Tell us, do you recognize your childhood playmates? We’re the ones you ran from every day, crying! Now you’re acting braver - now you’re high and mighty! But there’s no escaping from your childhood memories. Bullies: Raistlin, do a spell! It’s fun to see you stutter. You’re alone and helpless here without your brother. You’re a mighty wizard, but your staff falters. Now we’ll beat you back into your place. Raistlin, you’re weak! Raistlin, you’re so weak! Teenager: Show us how you juggle like a fool, Raistlin. We’re the mental struggle as your mind caves in. It’s a losing fight - your magic won’t affect us! We are your nightmares. We are your memories. Bullies: We are your nightmares! We are your memories!

To release me - fulfilling my will as you promised! You’ve done well. For a moment I wondered: “Was it the wrong bait?” But you’ve come after all and unlocked the Gates. You’ve done well! I could leave you to wither away, Trapped alone to never go free, But instead I’ve reserved you a place At my throne right below me. Forget who you were! My shadow, you shall follow me! And together we’ll conquer The world you’ve prepared for my glory! Come to me... Stand here at my side... Come to me... Stand here at my side… Come. Raistlin: Oh my Dark Lady! I can finally bend my knee to you. How I’ve waited for this moment. (laughs) Did you really think I’d take that offer? Sell my soul to serve at your feet? Never! I intend to follow my own agenda: Facing hell to make heaven mine forever! Yes, I once obeyed as it served my purpose, Acting as a slave to attain your power. Now that I’m its master, your reign is over. You can’t hold me back on the journey forward. He that witnessed what Darkness wrought, Will defy it with all his might. He’ll remember the life he lost, And his eyes shall not suffer lies. Takhisis: Is that my shadow mocking me? You’re nothing without me! An echo doesn’t speak unless to repeat. Majere - So be it! Fade out into darkness, Here, in the Abyss!

To the circle of flame! Be transformed into light And, like wings, you and I will fly! Crysania: I’ll go through the fire with you For the love in my heart Is a flame shining just as bright! Both: In the blaze, a key is ours to find One that was created by the fire The fire… The fire… Where we unite! No sweeter joy is there than this! Sharing with you the painful bliss. To burn so fiercely, like the sparks One and the same! Two blazing hearts! Tomorrow we will feel the pain But now there’s nothing but the flame Joining together you and I Black and white Our souls combine! Raistlin: Power and might! Crysania: My faith, passion, and love for you.

You pursue a higher purpose, And I know that’s where your heart is. Let me prove I’m worthy of you! I shall win your recognition! Soon you’ll see just how much power Paladine can grant his daughter! Promise me you’ll ask perfection - I will strive for nothing less. If I lose faith, if I cower, Then forsake me evermore! If I fail you, don’t forgive me! That’s the way it has to be! Do not cave to my heart’s weakness. Don’t permit another chance. Be sterner and straighter with me Than the highest judge would be! I require no indulgence. I won’t hide behind excuse. I hold nothing quite as dearly As your high demands of me. For your love, I make this promise: I will face the dark abyss! I’ll face the abyss! I’ll face the abyss! For your love.

Too quickly… There’s no returning. And though we may freely hate them, Our memories never release us. You can’t simply just erase them... Can’t hide from the boy within you. Let not this night be over so quickly! My brother is soundly sleeping. He’s dreaming of when life was simple. He’s dreaming that we still are brothers. Still inseparable brothers... Once more you’re an invalid child, And I’m your useless twin brother. The school has faded behind us. We’ve just escaped from its drudgery! But soon, when the dawn is glowing And when the old wounds are closing, We’ll see with a start how time has changed us, And brother - won’t that feel so strange?

Keep me in your dreams Chase after me I’m what you seek! Persuade yourself with lies If you desire How am I your captor? You wear the chains You yourself made Crysania: You are like no one else I’ve known What have you endured alone? Do the haunting memories tear you apart? What is the constant pain you feel? Can it truly never heal? Won’t compassion Mend the wounds of your heart? You’re always on my mind (R: Keep me on your mind) Every day and night (R: Every day and night) You’re always in my dreams (R: Keep me in your dreams!)

*Turn on English subtitles to sing along! Lyrical English Translation: WIZARD'S CHILDHOOD Raistlin: A village was home to a small family The mother and twins were content as could be One brother was clever, the other was strong Their life starting out was a typical one But then, tragically, their father died That’s when everything took a sharp turn So that we could have a better life, Mother swore herself to the Darkness After one mistake using magic - Mother’s life was suddenly forfeit I could tell the Dark Lady planned it - Preying on the souls of the desperate! That day I made a promise I couldn’t keep I swore that I would never speak A single word of sorcery A little boy vowed on his mother’s memory How could it be that I was so naive? Traps are not there to be left unused And the hunt would only continue Cruelty sparked within my former friends All their twisted games forced me beyond the edge And that’s how I discovered my talent: By amusing bullies with magic There and then I felt my calling captivate my soul! The one who’s drawn unto that mighty call Can neither be dissuaded nor denied The young apprentice dedicates his all To mastering his studies day and night To finding secrets Nature hasn’t told To weaving with the Gods the threads of life The passion for magic is a madness Impossible to fight I was not inclined to join a side. I aspired only for knowledge. It’s as if I were a scientist and my skill - a gem to be polished. But Takhisis, planting suspicion, Turned the fearful conclave against me. So, they forced the Test on the novice, Betting on the chance it would kill me. But I survived and swore one day I’d fight Her face to face. So began this game of deadly risk Played between two equal contenders Where a strike is softer than a kiss Where the foes are closer than lovers But is she the hunted or huntress? Am I to be victim or victor? We both dream of meeting the other: She means to take the world And I to make her pay! Crysania: If it’s true what you’re saying, Then please tell me why You fought in the past war On the Dark Lady’s side? Raistlin: On the Dark Lady’s side... Crysania: All the fears of the Conclave would seem quite justified! Raistlin: Quite justified! Yes, I’ll say it, she tamed me - the coveted prey of her trap Yes, I ate from her hands and dressed myself all in black But, regardless, I chose in the end to betray my Queen Turning magic against her, I struck and set myself free Now I’m branded a traitor in everyone’s eyes Good and evil alike would applaud my demise A despicable turncoat I’ll be seen for all time By the world’s unfair judgment, that’s how I’ve been defined Both: In the eyes of the whole world... Raistlin: ... I have unfairly... (Crysania: ... You have unfairly...) Both: ... been defined Raistlin: Ever since, I’ve had these haunting dreams From the grave I hear mother calling And I know exactly what it means: Magic will either be what dooms or saves me

But then I’ll need a flawless hero of might - A good-hearted knight - to lead everyone in the fight. Inspired people gladly go rushing in To fight for their kin or peace for all Krynn. They’ll march to battle like an army of sheep... Leave all the reasons to me! A chance for great deeds! A pass for cruelty! The youngest recruits will be promised glory! A hope for better! A meal for beggars! Whatever they seek - one and all shall discover! Caramon: But aren’t we misleading the trust of these people? It’s you and not they who desire a war. Raistlin: My dear Caramon, I’ve said nothing deceitful. The war will provide all they need and much more. (Version 1) Raistlin: Have I heard correctly your cousins conspire To keep you impoverished out here on the road? That they’re sleeping soundly on your rightful treasure While seeking for shelter you restlessly roam? Don’t tell me you’re honestly trusting they’ll decide To give back the keys and allow you inside? So take back your homeland! The battle shall be won, For leading the charge is the brave Caramon! ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (Version 2) Raistlin: We'll put up some placards painted bright colors, Refreshing the portraits of timeless ideals. Of freedom, equality, justice, and fealty. Such fantasies cater to widespread appeal. And he that shall lead them to retake the nation Is hailed by the masses with deafening cheers. That's how wars are fought: They're paid for by brave men While off to the side stays the safe puppeteer. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ A chance for great deeds! A pass for cruelty! The youngest recruits will be promised glory! A hope for better! A meal for beggars! Whatever they seek - one and all shall discover! The war will provide! The war will provide!

Search your hearts - it’s your pride that condemns them! When has God called upon us for bloodshed? It’s not for you to pass ultimate judgment By what right would you cruelly judge another?

King-Priest: In heaven’s name, all the wicked will burn! Crysania: You’re blind! It’s you that would perish first! King-Priest: Are you questioning God?

*Turn on English subtitles to sing along! Lyrical English Translation: PROSECUTOR Raistlin: Awaken, Crysania! Are you so naive? Beneath his pious mask, a tyrant is King. He’s no friend of Darkness - that I wouldn’t debate - And he’ll see his plan through - whatever it takes. This dazzling plaza is empty of beggars, But you’ll find them crowding the dungeons instead. The people rejoice, proud their city is pure now, But how many voices will cheer once they know… Just how far he intends to go? Just how far he intends to go... Your "flawless" King. To keep any stone from casting a shadow, He’s willing to crush the whole world into dust. Your God isn’t likely to pardon so much hate, And maybe Istar’s too far gone to be saved... What good would it serve deceiving my ally? It’s in my best interest that I shouldn’t lie. There’s no need to be afraid - this cannot taint you. Your God knows my spell merely shows you the truth! See just how far he intends to go. See just how far he intends to go! Your ruthless King!

Перевод текста очень понравился а вот исполнение на мой взгляд подкачало. Женский вокал совсем не вывез, мужская партия намного проще поэтому звучит достойно.
