BEYOND THE PERIPHERY
a) A Wordless Eulogy
Clément is holding his dear friend’s body in his arms as it expires. Edward has died, his spirit has crossed over, but somehow he can still hear every word they are saying, assuring him of his significance and a love he spent a lifetime thinking he never deserved...
Clément Martins:
I have always seen it coming, and now you are dying in my arms
Was this the reward for all your sorrows?
A quiet desperation?
A silent struggle to belong?
Always holding on...
All the years that I have known you
Your mind has been wandering in the dark
I hope that you find what you've been searching for
A meaning of life, or nothing at all?
I wonder, where did you go?
Edward Nolan:
The life I have left behind was never meant for me
Just hiding in the shadows never set me free
Now that I'm crossing over to the other side
I have found a new frontier that suits the nature of my mind
Choir of Mortals:
Go on, be free
We hope you'll find your way
Go on, fly free
As we surrender your body to Earth
Clément Martins:
I see in all their faces; they are the people you know
The tears in their eyes tell me you gave them hope
Lost in their darkness they left all their homes
How I wish you could see you were never alone!
Edward Nolan:
I feel an energy that draws me towards a light
Unlike the dreams I have had there is no turning back
Here in the vastness is the presence I have sought
Across the centuries to bring this message I have brought
Choir of Mortals:
Go on, be free
We hope you find your way
Go on, fly free
As we surrender our lives to our fate
b) Rendezvous: The Vision
Finally at peace, Edward finds himself being surrounded by a brilliant white light. No longer bound by the limitations of physical existence, his spirit is forever and one with everything that has been, is, and ever will be. And in the light, the presence of whom he believes is the one whose word is powerful enough to alter the course of history...
Edward Nolan:
Nostradamus
I am reaching out to change the course of time
To save our souls before the world is gone
Forever gone!
SALON-DE-PROVENCE, FRANCE
NOSTRADAMUS’ SECRET CHAMBER, MIDNIGHT, MARCH 18th 1554:
Nostradamus:
A vision of tragedy
Appearing in my mindful trance
A world on its knees
Deprived of their sun
Their course must be turned
Their fate be undone...
c) Timeline: A Different Course
In his rooftop chamber, surrounded by the light of seven wax candles, Nostradamus wrote a quatrain based on the vision that had just come to him. This would be one of the last quatrains he ever wrote before “Les Prophéties” was published the year after. Mankind took it as a serious warning about the world coming to an end, and succeeded in their efforts to permanently avoid such a tragedy.
However, tempted by their curiosity and due to their adventurous nature, mankind still decided to search their surroundings for other planets to colonize. A constellation consisting of seven planets and one moon was discovered in 2103, and the GALILEO ALPHA EN-1 probe was launched in 2113 to investigate and determine their habitability.
By 2123 Global Control received the data transmission they were waiting for, and only a couple years later the first groups of colonists boarded the seven “Valiant” shuttles, each of them ready to embark on their voyage to their respective destinations in the “Novae” constellation.
GLOBAL CONTROL LAUNCH SITE
ABOARD THE “VALIANT I” SHUTTLE, JUNE 8th 2125
Clément Martins:
In a world where life would falter
They found a way to make it last
They followed a warning that was written in the past
So long ago, predictions of time in candlelight
They searched for other planets
And soon they found a place to go
Beyond the horizon the Valiants will go
We're leaving the Earth to a place far from home...
Edward Nolan:
You're never alone!
Clément Martins:
...but in my heart I won't let you go!
Edward Nolan:
I found a gateway to a place beyond the stars
Away from emptiness and where my demons are
I see the universe and all that ever was
I am eternity and I am directing history's course
Nostradamus:
Dying by the hands of none but their own mortal selves
The world they know will shatter and crumble
Seven brave ones will travel among the stars
As Earth is slowly withering away
(Century VII, Quatrain 43)

I've loved Katsionis's work since his days with Firewind. His Stray Gods album was a little too Miaden-sounding for me, but this album does the Queensryche/Fates Warning thing right. You can hear an influence, but it is its own entity that can stand alone and should be promoted more because everyone deserves to hear this! ewilt15
