b) The Deafening Silence
GLOBAL CONTROL HEADQUARTERS
MISSION CONTROL ROOM I, JULY 26th 2115
Edward Nolan:
"...and so the world will come to an end"
Those were the fateful words I still can't comprehend
They say the Earth will fade and die
There’s no escape for us
We're bound to face the end of all mankind
Clément Martins:
There's no hope, we're dying here
Our only hope is far out there
Edward Nolan:
Fly, Galileo, and find
A place for us all so that we may survive
Foolishly we've lost our way
Stay safe on your journey and fly
Fly far away...
And so the world has come to pass...
There is no one else to blame
No way to change the past?
We’ve seen it coming for a long time
But all we did was close our eyes
To a world we took for granted our whole life
Clément Martins:
We're past the point of no return
Our only light has ceased to burn
Edward Nolan:
Fly, Galileo, and find
A place for us all so that we'll be all right
Shamelessly we are led astray
Stay on your course as you fly...
Fly, Galileo, and find
A life for us all so that we don't have to die
Stay with me!
Stay with me!
Reach out and give me a sign
Give me a sign...

GLOBAL CONTROL HEADQUARTERS
BRIEFING ROOM, JULY 27th 2115
A GLOBALLY BROADCAST PRESS CONFERENCE ANNOUNCEMENT
Joseph Palmer:
On this day, the 27th of July 2115, it is my regretful duty to inform the world that the Galileo Alpha RM-1 mission has failed. A mission in which we trusted our lives, to find a new planet where we could maintain our existence, to carry forth the legacy of Man, and to forever live as one in peace.
d) Recollection: Soliloquy
NEW EARTH INSTITUTE OF SCIENCE AND PHYSICS
PRESIDENT RODERICK GRAHAM’S OFFICE, SEPTEMBER 9th 2098
Hoping to be granted access to the institute’s pharmaceutical laboratories, Edward has presented an article entitled “The Uncharted Realms of Existence”, in which he elaborates a new rather radical theory that he is eager to pursue, after having discovered a document that contains a very specific formula that he believes was created by Nostradamus during his alchemy studies. It is uncertain whether or not he ever exposed himself to or even produced such a substance, but it is Edward’s theory that it can help the human mind expand and reach its full potential.
Edward Nolan:
I know it can be done, but my theory is being questioned;
to reach beyond our time and reconcile
So many years ago there was a man they said could travel time in his mind...
e) Recollection: The Conflict
NEW EARTH INSTITUTE OF SCIENCE AND PHYSICS
PRESIDENT RODERICK GRAHAM’S OFFICE, SEPTEMBER 9th 2098
President Roderick Graham has read Edward’s article and has called him into his office for an urgent meeting. He feels his theories are downright dangerous, and he is concerned about the institute’s reputation if the article should ever be published. After years of friction between the two of them, Roderick has come to conclude that Edward must go, and justifies it by saying the institute needs to make “financial priorities”...
Roderick Graham:
I can't believe this thing you've brought before my eyes
Just empty theories that should never face the world outside!
Edward Nolan:
I never thought you'd be so wrong!
We have had this fight for far too long
We should be standing all as one...
NEW EARTH INSTITUTE OF SCIENCE AND PHYSICS
REVISITING HIS OFFICE DESK ONE LAST TIME, AUGUST 4th 2115
Roderick Graham:
...and now we're dying one by one!
Choir of Mortals:
Ever since our dying birth
We've been the seed that plagued the Earth
Now our days will come to end
Reality has never been our friend
f) An Act of Faith
NEW EARTH INSTITUTE OF SCIENCE AND PHYSICS
OUTSIDE THE MAIN ENTRANCE, AUGUST 4th 2115
Edward, Roderick and Clément have met outside the facilities that were closed and abandoned seven years ago. After learning about the Galileo Alpha RM-1 seemingly having failed one week ago, Roderick reached out to Edward to ask if he wanted to attempt to finish his work, now that everything seemingly will come to an end anyway. Edward accepted, and Roderick has handed him the master key itself, before wandering off, never to be seen again. Clément knows he might be seeing his friend for the very last time, and says his heartfelt goodbyes. Edward, on the other hand, has work to do, and no time for emotions...
Edward Nolan:
I can't just sit and watch as the world is going by
There are many things to be done
And idleness is a loaded gun
I need to carry out these theories in my mind
Before all is lost and we fade like an echo in time
Clément Martins:
If we never meet again
Just follow your heart, my friend!
Edward Nolan:
Save all your tears!
I know that we'll meet once again when my journey ends
Clément Martins:
Goodbye, my old friend
I hope that I'll see you again
Edward Nolan and Clément Martins:
Whatever may be in the end...

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
