Lyrics

"Amethyst eyes that invite death...you musn't fight with that man!"

"Why is it, Mother?"
"Do you wish for a heroic death more than a life of normalcy?"
"Mother, those destined to die are waiting for me."
"Don't go! That man is..."
"Hah!"
"Leon....ah....Leontius!"


"Follow General Amethystos-------!!!"

【The Chronicles of Mythos. It is as rapid as the blink of an eye】

"Those small showers are quite the nuisance."
"Spineless cowards who only shoot from within safety!"
"There's no need to confront the archers. Ever since Orion died, they are but small fry."
"Your Excellency, it seems that the enemy's commander is..."
"Nothing but an idiot who lacks the brainpower to formulate a proper strategy."
"Very true."
"Sirius, take your unit to the right! Orph, your unit come in from the left! We're going to entrap them."
"Hah!"
"As you wish!"
“Athanatoi...”

The Undying Ones
[Αθάνατοι]

The red, crimson trail of death mowed by the undying ones.
Though they're but lifeless corpses now, even they had their own story.

But...destiny[Moira] won't allow...even such a flicker of hope[future]...

The ones who will grant a kiss to their distorted forms
Are not their beloved ones, but starved vultures.

The Sword of Hades Elefseus, the Harbinger of Death
[Ἅιδης ξίφος Ελευσευς, ὁ τῶν φόβος σε θάνατος]
The Lone Wolf Elefseus, Bringing Death to Hellenes
[Μονος λυκος Ελευσευς, φορτε Ἕλληνες για θάνατος]

"Long time no see, Ilion...we won't forget...on whose blood it is that your wards were built!"
"Your Excellency, give us the order-!!!!"
"Attack-!"

"Your Majesty! Ilion fell into enemy hands!"
"What!?"
"It seems to be the work of the slave units, led by Amethystos...!"
"Impossible! They got through the rampart blessed by Anemos..."
"His strength is such that even Anemos's descendant, the hero Iliad[Ίλιας], cannot match him! He might even be a descendant of a God himself, just like Your Majesty!"

Regulus, gather your troops in Barbaroi[Βάρβαροι]! Zosma, direct your troops to Amazon[]! Castor, come with me to the Holy Capital[Ίλιον]!
Let us, Clan of the Thunder God[Αρκαδίος], survive and meet again!

「Destiny is cruel, but do not fear her!
For the Goddess[Moira] shall never smile upon those who do not fight!」

「Humans aren't always powerless slaves!
Let us fight against capricious destiny[God], to take back our future!」

【At last...the paths of the two beasts have crossed.】

"He is Arcadia's...that hateful land's king...Misia's enemy!"
"Son to the hero Dimitrius, Leontius. I shall be your opponent."
"I can't hope for more!!"

Struggling for the era's hegemony; O eternal melody!
The ever-drifting flow; life like shooting stars; an instantaneous shine
("Ugh...Amethystos, as expected, an extraordinary man!")

This era of Myth that the dying ones dashed through
("This man...is strong." "Why would a man of such skill...")
Heroes at each other's throats; comrade in death; fated to fade away

Leontius
"Amethystos...being a Hellenes yourself, why do you assist the Barbaroi in their invasion?"

Elefseus
"What did motherland ever do for me? All it did was take away my loved ones! Don't make me laugh! Hah!"

"Please stop!"
"Mother! Ugh-"
"Ah!"
"Leon...Elef...please...stop this..."
"Mother....o, Moira..."
"Don't you dare go ahead without me! I won't forgive you, Leontiu- ugh..."
