這是一個肢離破碎的瑣碎世界


今天晚上的新聞,在報了縣府暴力拆除三鶯部落的事情之後,馬上接著又報總統選舉和兩岸通航的相關新聞。

像新聞這樣的脈絡,人看多了應該會變得冷血吧!



最近開始看了一些阿多諾的音樂相關文章,看得不是很懂。

在Alienated Masterpiece中,阿先生的論述寫得就像詩文一樣難解,讓人懷疑他用這樣的方法傳達他的無法理解。



他說貝多芬代表了布爾喬亞階級革命的精神,意味著宗教的世俗化以及去神祕化。

然而在貝先生的後期作品中,又看到了對古風的恢復。



這代表著資產階級革命之後,死亡成為一種客觀存在什麼的,而貝先生預見了這樣的狀況嗎?

啟蒙、理性導致了非理性的結果,去神祕化後的社會落入了另一種黑暗時代,這也可以用異化這個詞來指涉嗎?

阿先生想說的是,貝先生體會到了自己的信仰會是破滅,所以他認為貝先生是以他的失敗來譬喻啟蒙的失敗嗎?

以上到底是貝先生的看法,還是阿先生的看法,還是根本只是敝人在下我的看法?



總之,問題到了今天並沒有被解決,然而也不會有人注意到有問題的存在,至少大部分的人不會。

不管發生了什麼事,都不影響我們拿天災人禍來佐飯,以粉飾太平來配湯,再用莫名其妙無關緊要的小事來當下酒菜。




Guitar Pro Portable


最近發現了可攜式的Guitar Pro。

如果在公用電腦上想開個Guitar pro的檔案的話,應該還蠻方便的。



參閱這個網頁:

http://yerdenizden.blogspot.com/2008/01/portable-guitar-pro-52.html



版本是5.2版,頁面上有兩種portable的guitar pro,差別在於第二種可以在帳號權限有受限的電腦上使用。



不過也如同該網頁上的圖,音符顯示是有問題的……

我試的是第二種,打開之後會在同一個資料夾出現GData這個資料夾,裡面的fonts資料夾有Guitar Pro這個檔案。

到控制台=>字型安裝這個檔案,再重開一次Guitar Pro Portable,就一切正常了。



但是我裝了那個字型之後,公用電腦上的Firefox文字顯示卻出了問題,再把字型刪掉就可以了。



如果沒有辦法安裝新字型怎麼辦?這我就沒試過了。

大四亞洲音樂:韓國農樂與社會運動


(96上 亞洲音樂文化)

韓國農樂與社會運動

動機與研究方式

會想要做這個題目,起源於2005年時,世界貿易組織(WTO)在香港舉行部長級會議,在關注相關新聞的過程中,我看到了韓國抗議隊伍的一些事蹟。2007年,我參加了台灣的樂生保留遊行中的苦行組,在街上跪拜行進,而這正好是之前韓國人在香港做過的事情。在一些社運人士的口中,韓國的社會運動很特別,好像有很多的創舉,同是也是他們想要效法的對象。終於,我看到了Andrew P. Killick收錄於《Garland Encyclopedia》的〈Musical Profile of Korea〉這篇文章,其中描述「抗議者在傳統農民打擊樂隊的聲音中行進」文中所指的打擊樂隊正是農樂(nongak)。這麼看來,如果要對韓國的社會運動有更多瞭解,似乎可以從農樂著手,因此我選擇了這個主題。

本報告主要以文獻閱讀整理為主,並試圖在閱讀過程中搭配個人的經驗,演譯出自己的觀點。文獻包括前人的論文與期刊上的文章,加上網路上資料。


農樂源流

在歷史上關於農樂最早的記載,出現在陳壽的三國誌中,描述馬韓這個國家的一段文字:
常以五月下種訖,祭鬼神,群聚歌舞,飲酒晝夜無 休。其舞,數十人俱起相隨,踏地低昂,手足相應, 節奏有似鐸舞。十月農功畢,亦複如之。
其中的描述雖然簡約,但是可以看出與現在的農樂有相似之處, 也許是這就是農樂的原始形式。

關於農樂的稱呼,最常見的有幾種:農樂、農民樂隊(Farmers' Band)、風物(p'ungmul)。韓國人認為「農樂」是日本殖民者帶有貶義的稱法,因此傾向於使用風物這個詞。不過這件事似乎不是那麼絕對,至少在我看過的文章中,也有韓國人用「農樂」這個詞的。在Keith Howard的〈Nongak(P'ungmul Nori)〉(收錄於Garland Encyclopedia)一文中,對於「農樂」一詞與日本殖民的關聯也有所辯駁(p.930)。
關於農樂的起源有好幾種說法,有人說務農社群祈求豐收的方法,有人說是受到政府壓迫的佛教僧侶為了摹款而創造出來,有人說它是起自巫術儀式(shamanism),也有人說它與軍中的樂隊有關(kycc)。但不管起源為何,在歷史發展過程中,農樂與社(Dure or Ture)這種組織有密不可分的關聯。

「社」

「社」是一種農民用來團結共同勞動力的組織。在生產過程中,有些事情大家合力來做會有比較高的效率,因此韓國的農民在遠古時就有了這樣的組織。在三國誌中也找得到相關的記載:
辰韓在馬韓之東,其耆老傳世,自言古之亡人避秦役 來適韓國,馬韓割其東界地與之。有城柵。其言語不 與馬韓同,名國為邦,弓為弧,賊為寇,行酒為行 觴。相呼皆為徒,有似秦人,非但燕、齊之名物 也。
其中的「徒」,被認為就是Dure這個字。

「社」帶有一點軍事化的風格。它規定所有人一定要集體行動,工作、休息都必須大家一起來,不允許單獨行動。在前往工作的農田過程中,它會有行軍一般的列隊行進,還有農旗(nonggi)和令旗(yonggi)來指揮行動。所有人都必須尊敬農旗,就連達官顯貴看到行進中的農旗,也要下馬並行禮,才能牽著馬通過(Shin 1985 March :12)。歷史上還曾有大臣以為這些農民是打算起義反抗政府,不過另一位大臣告訴君王這樣的組織已經存在很久了(Shin 1985 March:7-8),由此可以看出,其實「社」的存在不被韓國的朝廷所重視,甚至根本就不知道有這樣的組織存在。

「社」的工作模式很特別,在當時社的共同勞動發揮作用的時間點主要是在稻苗移植、稻田除草、收割等農務上。農民會一大早就列隊行進到農田去,行進過程中會有旗幟在帶領著大家,而且一旁會有人演奏農樂做為行進的音樂。到了工作地點後,農人們會先工作約一個小時,然後集體使用早餐,吃完早餐後再集體工作。在到中午用午餐之前,還會有一次集體用點心的時間。中午依序會用午餐、演奏農樂、休息,然後繼續工作。同樣地,到用晚餐之前也還有一次的點心,然後在晚餐之後一直工作到日落,然後才列隊回家。整個一天的工作流程為十二小時左右,但實際的工作時間為八小時,而且效率約為單獨工作的1.5倍。(Shin 1985 March:15)

在工作過程中,會用鑼鼓聲來引發唱和,由一個人領唱,其它人跟著合唱,曲目大約是大家都熟悉的曲目。如果熟悉的曲目都唱完了,領唱者也會即興發揮,即席創作出新的曲子,而大家也自然跟著唱。如果中途有人工作累了,他會拿起放在田邊的敲擊樂器演奏,一方面提振自己的精神,另一方面也可以振奮大家的士氣。(Shin 1985 March:14)

基本上每個地方都有各自的「社」,成員皆為成年男性,但在準備伙食時亦有女性幫助。另外在補魚、紡織等業也有類似的組織,但是農人的組織似乎是最為普遍的。農人有些是自耕農,也有些是在地主的土地上工作的。這些地主也會讓他的農人加入「社」,以得到共同勞動的效益,在此同時,地主也須必須支付酬金給「社」。在勞動過程中,「社」會有所收入,這些收入會用來舉辦Homi-ssishi,這是一種在收割結束後,慶祝的祭典。然後剩下的資金,會用來支付修復、添購農樂樂器所需的金額。

總之,農樂與於「社」的意義在於:一、增進勞動效率。二、將辛苦的勞動變得愉快。三、結合工作與休息。四、提升勞動意識。五、提高農民自尊。六、增進成員向心力。(Shin 1985 April:6)


南社黨(Namsadang)

也有人譯做南寺黨、男寺堂,甚至因為他們也充做達官貴人的男妓,因此也有譯做男色黨的。所謂南社黨是活動在東北亞一帶的流浪表演者,很像是吉普賽人,他們以四處表演特技維生。對於當時的知識分子,南社黨是一群被放逐的人,所以不被他們看在眼裡,因此南社黨的演出主要對象是一般大眾。他們的表演項目包括了農樂、轉盤子(bona)、肢體特技(salp'an)、走繩索(orum)、面具戲劇(totbegi)和偶戲(Dolmi)。除此之外,很重要的一點是,在各種高難度的特技演出同時,也會講一些揶揄兩班(Yangban)的台詞。以上種種特質,讓他們受到民眾的喜愛,成為一種具代表性的民間藝術(Young 1981)。

所謂兩班,是由文班(munban)和武班(muban)組成,其實就是士大夫階級。透過科舉、蔭職及聯姻,兩般有了世襲的特色,而成為一個與血緣相關的階級(wikipedia)。

後來南社黨被執政當局規定管理,因此很多流竄到農村中,同時也讓農樂吸收了一些南社黨的表演形式(Kim 1967:97)。另一種說法是說南社黨本來就會在得到村民的允許的情況下進入農村演出(Young 1981:10)。兩種說法也許只是不同時期的情況,甚至可能是同時發生的兩種不同事情。另外南社黨的演出內容包括農樂,我認為可能是為了迎合農村觀眾,也有可能是從農民身上學到,而運用到他們的表演中。總之,南社黨對於農樂的影響,是讓農樂多了一些帶有特技色彩的表演內容。


農樂的形式

農樂的組成可以分成chaebi和chapsaek兩個部分,後者可譯為「雜色」,而前者我並沒有看到什麼翻譯。chaebi包括了掌農旗和令旗的人,以及演奏樂器的人。這些樂器包括有小鑼(kkwaenggwari)、大鑼(jing)、杖鼓(changgo)、Puk、小鼓(sogo)和hojok(或稱nallari、太平簫)等。而雜色的部分,是一些裝扮成象徵某種社會形象的舞者,常見的包括孩童(mudong)、獵人(p'osu)、敗德僧侶(chung)、妙齡女子(lass)、兩班等等。

雜色的主要功能,是提高表演的剌激性,增加表演的內容,並感染氣氛給觀眾,把觀眾拉進表演的一部分裡面。

農旗會走在隊伍的前面帶領前進,而令旗則扮演了指揮的角色。農旗上會寫著斗大的「農者天下之大本」七個字,這句話出自宋代陳敷的《農書》裡,強調農業對於人類社會的重要性。

樂器的部分,小鑼是農樂的帶領,其中最主要的小鑼的演奏者更是整個樂隊的領導人物,整體的節奏由小鑼給定,並且與杖鼓有對話的關係。大鑼的聲音較為低沉,是穩定整體節奏的角色。杖鼓的角色與小鑼有點類似,但是較為纖細而圓滑。Puk主要是用來加強重拍的地方。小鼓的音量非常的小,主要是用來做為輔助舞動的工具。而Hojok是其中唯一的旋律樂器,音量很大,除演奏重覆樂句之外也有即興的部分。

農樂除了音樂部分,身體的舞動是很重要的元素。在Nathan(1999/2000)的翻譯文章中,Kim Inu提到了「農樂是用腳跟來演奏的!不管節奏打得再怎麼好,它們都是由跳舞所產生的。如果這樣的肢體勞動(舞動)無法產生狂熱,那麼這個農樂就是死的。(p6)」農樂中的舞蹈動作,會與農人在田地中工作的動作非常相像,它是一種勞動者的姿態。另外,其中的一些成員可能會配帶所謂的sangomo,就是戴在頭上的白色長條帶子,會在空中甩啊甩的,相當華麗。可能會配帶sangomo的人,包括小鑼、小鼓和puk的演奏者,其中甚至可能有人頭戴長達十八公尺的sangomo(Shin April 1985:6-7)。

傳統上農樂的演出時機主要在幾個時期,分別是五月份稻苗移殖時、六月份稻田除草時、十月收割時、一月十五祈禱豐收和六月十五的農人節(Kim 1967:8-9)。另外,之前在收割工作結束時會有一個叫做Homi-ssishi的慶典,在這個慶典裡的農樂會較為盛大。平常的農樂可能只有chaebi的部分,但是在Homi-ssishi時的農樂就會包括雜色的部分(Shin April 1985:6-7)。

農樂的歷史流變

李氏王朝(Yi Dynasty)時期(1392~1910)

在Shin Yong-Ha的文章中,把農樂在日本殖民之前的演變分成三個階段,分別是house-call nongak、kollipp'ae nongak和namsadangp'ae nongak。

第一個階段的演變來自「社」中的農樂樂隊因為修復破損樂器的資金短缺,因此做一些讓人邀請的演出,特別是來自村中較為富裕的農人娛樂消遣性質的邀請。雖然還在「社」的範圍之中,但是這是農樂開始娛樂化的先聲。

第二個階段的意思是「乞求稻米的戲團」,農樂的演出開始是為了得到收入,演出地點也擴展到其它村落和市場的範圍,藉由演出來得到金錢與米糧。這時的農樂演出會有雜色的部分,而且也開始發展一些特技的內容,主要是頭載很長的sangomo。這時演出的農樂也會帶有比較強烈的巫術色彩。農樂此時開始獨立於「社」而存在。

第三個階段基本上就像南社黨那樣了,依靠四處演出來維生,演出內容也變得特技化,色彩也更為豐富。(Shin April 1985)但是,到底這跟南社黨會不會是一樣的東西,我想有可能是南社黨吸收了農樂成為他們的表演內容,也有可能是原本的農樂表演者成為了全職的流浪表演者,而形成了南社黨。我想這裡產生了一些矛盾的說法,到底是南社黨影響了農樂,還是農樂發展成為南社黨,又或者是兩種情形都是存在的?這個部分我並沒有找到什麼很有力的論述,能夠斬釘截鐵地肯定任何一種說法,但是我傾向於第三種,也就是同時存在的說法。
從以上的三個階段,我們大致可以推測到這是貨幣經濟影響到農村的原始形態的過程。原本的農村是一種生產文化,在貨幣經濟擴張之後,逐漸變成一種消費文化,而同時庶民的娛樂文化也開始興起。這是一個逐漸演變的過程,在李氏王朝時期這樣的演變還是相對緩慢的,到了日本殖民時期貨幣經濟才會成為社會的主要運作形態。

日本殖民時期(1910~1945)

在日本殖民時期,社會運作體制完全進入貨幣經濟體系,使得逐利成為人們的目標。對於「社」而言,由於成員開始要求勞力付出應該得到資金收入,因此「社」收入的處理方式必須將第一順位變成給付給成員的薪水,而原本第一、二順位的祭典舉辦和樂器維護就逐漸變得無以為繼。原本每個「社」都會有農樂樂隊的編制,此時約有16.8%的「社」並無配置農樂。

除了有農樂的「社」開始減少之外,「社」本身也在減少。日本人引進了現代的農業技術,使得原本的共同勞動變得不是必要的。由薪水支付勞動,使得合作不再是那麼重要的,重要的只是個人薪文的多寡。日本人所推動的土地調查,使得原本屬於「社」的土地變成產權不清,擁有土地的農民也變得愈來愈少。另外,日本人認為農樂是韓國人民族意識的一種表現,也是一種浪費的行為,於是有意識地打壓「社」和農樂。另外,在二次大戰期間,日本人徵收金屬製品,其中也包括農樂的樂器,這使得農樂又大量的消失。

然而,還是有些地方的「社」保留了下來,有地方性自覺地致力保留下來的,也有由地主保留下來增加其土地效益,以支薪方式維持的。不過比起原本的情況,「社」和農樂的確是在日本殖民韓國的期間大大地消褪了。(Shin April 1985:11-16)

韓國獨立,李承晚政權(1948~1960)

韓國獨立之後,隨之而來的是南北韓分裂,這件事跟美國與蘇聯之間的角力應有密切關聯,接下來會將焦點放在南韓的部分。

在脫離日本殖民之後,殖民時期的精英分子努力維持他們的社會地位與權力,而普羅大眾則希望能夠懲罰當初與殖民政府有合作關係的人,並以土地改革進行財產的重新分配。由於南韓政府是由美國方面在背後撐腰的,也就像美國一樣打壓左派人士的行動。

在1960年的選舉過程,由於失業率高漲以及政府腐敗,因此有一些抗議發生,但是這些抗議並沒有影響選舉結果。但是在同年4月11日,一具在抗議過程中死於摧淚瓦斯的學生屍體被發現藏在港口,政府本來為了不讓事情擴大的措施,反而變成了衝突擴大的導火線。於是引發了所謂419事件,也有人稱之為四月革命(April Revolution),最後李承晚辭職下台。(Jennifer 1997:21-22)

軍事政變,朴正熙政權(1963~1979)

在李承晚下台之後不久,朴正熙將軍發動軍事政變,奪得政權。由於朴正熙有日本背景,上任之後希望與前殖民者日本建立正常關係,而人民在意識形態上擔心獨立國家的地位受到威脅,於是特別是年輕一輩的知識分子,發動了韓國的文化運動。在示威行動中,民俗傳統的表演藝術也在公眾場合中出現,學生也開始將這此民俗傳統放進抗爭當中。比如在1963年,學生發動了一個「祖國意識的召喚儀式(Invocation Ritual of Homeland Consciousness)」,整個活動流程由假面劇(t'alch'um)和傳統葬禮儀式組成,隨後以農樂收尾(Kim 2002:97-98)。這些活動引發了學生對於傳統藝術的興趣。一連串的示威之後,政府在1964年宣布戒嚴。

在這期間朴正熙在文化方面進行了「國家文化財」的計劃,除了保存韓國傳統文化之外,也是為了加強其統治的正當性。在音樂方面,原本的保留重點在於宮庭音樂,但受到學生運動影響之後,民間的傳統藝術也被納入其範圍。政府舉辦了民間藝術競賽(Flok Arts Contest),也開始資助一些表演者。但是這些措施也有一些反效果,像是地區差異的消失,還有就是表演者脫離了原本的脈絡,變成一種舞台形式的表演藝術,而不再具有原本的功能(Howard 1991:4)。

而在抗爭的過程中,學生們也感到他們需要與消失中的鄉村建立連結,因此他們開始深入鄉間學習歌謠與農樂等事物。這個學習過程也讓他們抗爭的凝聚力提高了,以一種正回鐀般的流程在抗爭與傳統藝術學習之間循環。雖然政府很快地禁止了學生下鄉的行動,但是這還是阻止不了學生持續地往農村學習。(Jennifer 1997:23-24)

後來,朴正熙被韓國中央情報部暗殺,結束了朴正熙政權。

軍事獨裁,全斗煥政權(1980-1988)

在朴政熙被暗殺之後,民眾要求結束威權體制,民主抗爭、工人運動、學生遊行蔓延全國,結果全斗煥趁亂在1979發動軍事政變,奪得政權並宣布戒嚴。

1980年五月,韓國光州和全羅南道的民主示威,遭到軍隊暴力鎮壓,民眾開始暴動,武裝抗爭,而政府派了萬名軍人屠殺異議分子,這個事件被稱後「光州事件」。而由於政府的軍事鎮壓是得到美國支持的,因此從這時開始韓國的反美意識也日益高漲。

關於農樂,值得一提的是,在光州屠殺的過程中,有韓國人逃亡到美國,在美國組成了「韓國青年聯盟(Young Korean United),以追求韓國的民主化為宗旨。當他們在美國試圖將韓國的情況讓在美國的人瞭解時,他們發現以農樂搭配的情況下很能夠吸引到大眾的觀注,於是他們也把他們在韓國抗爭時使用農樂的傳統帶到了美國,農樂開始在美國生根。在這樣的脈絡底下的農樂,以Poongmul這個詞來代表,指的是脫離農業社會脈絡的農樂。(Jennifer 1997:25-26)

另一個向國際傳播的例子,是由金德洙(Kim Duk-Soo)所發展出來的四物(samulnori)這個樂種。金德洙的父親是南社黨的表演者,所以他本人從小受的就是表演的訓練。首爾市政府的網頁上,金德洙專訪的文章中提到,因為當時如果在公開場合表演,是會被警察逮補的,所以他才會創造這麼一個室內的表演形式。四物基本上是從農樂變化而來,把舞蹈的部分取出,表演者坐著演奏小鑼、大鑼、杖鼓和Puk四種樂器,表演高度技術化的節奏曲目。後來四物成為很受國際喜好的一種表演藝術,變成了一個樂種。

不過,對於是在抗爭的脈絡下學習農樂的學生們,農樂的力量在於其所建立的社群感,而四物則是一種純粹為了表演的形式,因此他們之間可以說是道不同不相為謀(Jennifer 1997:29)。

結論:農樂與當代社會運動

曾經有人說過,沒有歌的社會運動是無法想像的。農樂具有建立社群的力量,而且是一種草根色彩濃厚的藝術形式。它的歷史脈絡來自「社」的合作勞動,有激勵士氣的效果。而且「農者天下之大本」這樣強烈的農村色彩,本身就有很高的辨識度。

在資本主義全球化的時代,農民首當其衝成為自由貿易底下的犧牲者。政府的農業補貼被國際貿易協定規定必需取消,而來自外國的農產品又大量進口,韓國的農業面臨了重大的危機,因此韓國農民積極參與了近年的反全球化抗爭。從新聞媒體在2005年對於在香港舉行的WTO部長級會議的報導,以及網路上的相關文章與影片,我們都可以看到韓農在這樣的國際經濟情勢下是痛苦掙扎的,而這正是農樂原本的發展脈絡在今日的情形。

另外,在Youtube上的影片中,韓國農民在反對自由貿易協定(FTA)和WTO的抗爭中,我們也可以看見做為一種團結眾人的媒介,農樂在抗爭場合出現的情形。在一場反FTA的遊行當中,韓農在馬路上以三步一跪的方式行進,沿著隊伍有農樂樂器的助陣,這彷彿是從前農人在農樂中行進到工作地點的場景,以一種悲壯的形態在現代再現了。而在香港WTO部長會議的會場外,出現了農樂的演出,表演著演奏著樂器、舞動著肢體,而背景不是綠樹和黃土地,而是抗議的群眾和虎視耽耽的鎮暴警察。這是當代的議題和當代的場景,而故事仍然在持續進行。

Chapter IV



THE POWER OF THE
DRAGONFLAME




  當黑雲籠罩著整個中央大陸,冰之戰士回到了熟悉的獨角獸森林,帶著滿手血腥。親和的大樹試著以耳語拭去他最後殘留在視覺印象揮之不去的一幕--Arwald和Airin的死狀。那一幕,就像是一條鞭子,不斷抽打著他的勇氣,在他靈魂的傷口上刻上深刻的復仇意志……




  另外,翡翠神劍的強大能力,竟落入敵方手中的這件事,也如針扎般的讓他痛不欲生。在肉體與心靈上都達到了耐受的極限時,他到達了綠意依舊的
Elgard,在那裡的人民,都把他視為真正的英雄,即使他是敗戰而歸……。此時,巫師Aresius必須以全力來治療戰士受驚嚇的心靈。



  但不幸地,一個令人無法置信的新的悲劇發生,它足以摧毀任何人的心靈穩定度,甚至是連冰之戰士以及Aresius都不敢想像的。一切看起來就像是小丑幻想的戲言中,所虛構出來的古老傳說,居然變成了意料之外、戲劇性的現實……



  由於翡翠神劍的神力與敵人的巫師Vankar的巫法祕方互相合璧,把世界對分成人類世界及詛咒地獄的混亂之門
(portal of chaos)終被打開。在魔域的深淵中進行了一連串的邪惡儀式之後,那被神遺棄的妓女、殘酷戰神的奴隸、染黑地平線的魔后(Queen of the dark horizon的三重身份),又再度重生,並引領著從遠古封咒中解放的活死人軍團,加入Akron的陣營。




  這件事情之後,首先引起了場悲慘的戰事。首先在怒濤之中,強大的木造戰船隊被給全軍覆沒,接著我們的兩個姐妹城也在火雨之下的啟示之血戰的三個月後,
給敵方殲滅了,它們分別是Elnor和Thorald。它們的領主在與惡魔及血腥巨人的戰鬥中英勇地戰死;它們的絕語凝重了大氣,深刻在大陸南方巨石和海
岸上。



  當冰之戰士聽到這個消息之後,不能自己地狂吼,從靈魂深處狂吼,其聲之盛甚至連陰鬱山脈(grey
mountains)的精靈與侏儒都聽見了他暴怒的迴聲。但是,很快地他就有了呼喚起復仇之心的機會。這是由於在兩個月之後,Algalord的最高政務廳決定要徵召大陸南力最勇敢的戰士們,把他們即時組成一支軍隊,並把統率權給我們的冰之戰士。



  Akron、魔后
(evil
queen=Queen of the dark horizon)
、污影之主Dargor以及惡魔軍團,現在正緩緩向光明屬的城鎮前進,並殲滅沿途所有阻擾的人們。



  因此,驕傲的Algalord城正遭到可怕的威脅,必須在最短時間內做出反擊。否則若是神聖的堡壘在最後被攻陷了,一切就將被混亂之王
(King Chaos)給統治,那麼一切就都完了。







IN TENEBRIS



Tenebra, tenebra... domina!

Tenebra, tenebra... danna me!

Let me open the dark portal

and so cross the crypts of ghostland... now...

Tenebra, tenebra... domina!

Tenebra, tenebra... danna me!

Let me see his face...

Furia cieca, caos in me...

Demoni...

lead me to your horned beast named king...

I will call my fire, air, earth,

the oceans' waters... to stop inferno's breath!

Tenebra, tenebra... domina!

Tenebra, tenebra... danna me!

Tenebra... libera me!



冥闇 冥闇 支配

冥闇 冥闇 揚沸

許我開啟幽冥之門

許我橫越鬼域深隧 速!

冥闇 冥闇 支配

冥闇 冥闇 揚沸

許我將其面目認清

瞽目而怒 心起波濤

我誓必呼喚那火、那風、那土

那無盡汪洋,以窒汝地獄之息

冥闇 冥闇 支配

冥闇 冥闇 揚沸

冥闇 予我自由







KNIGHTRIDER OF DOOM

The fading illusion the sirens' grey tears
it's here in the cold air the town's tragic fear
The breath of infernos the rise of the dead
the portals of chaos the seventh black flame
幻象正在凋謝 女妖正在落泣
空氣凝重如冰 懼緬城鎮悲劇
地獄氣達人間 鬼靈冉冉升起
通往混亂之門 第七魔焰炙極

The rites of the unborn the dragonship's fall
the waves of my ocean the twins' holy call
The march of the heroes the call of the gods
after the rituals on the silent shore
設祭呼喚降臨 奠向戰船沉寂
無邊浪濤浸襲 邊城哀鳴淒淒
英雄整裝上陣 邁向諸神召喊

THE POWER OF THE DRAGONFLAME

Rise mighty dragon...
甦醒吧,聖龍!

Rise, rise, rise, rise...
Mighty dragon rise!
甦醒,甦醒,甦醒,甦醒
聖龍,甦醒吧!

Ruins of ancient wisdom closing now my darkest lonely eye
god is dead in Thorald and in Elnor's rhyme
Mutilated bodies are now carved in ancient holy stone
tragic decoration of unholy wars
古老智慧遺跡映入我絕望愁悵眼眶
眾神命喪於Thorald及Elnor的悲壯戰詩
殘骸斷肢散落遍地覆蓋古老地基石
將污穢不潔的戰爭髮飾成悲劇

The heart of the dragon is screaming awaiting
to write the black last page
The page of blood was written by them...
the dead now lying on the sand
蟄伏聖龍吶喊等待
出土改寫結局
血腥戰史已經付梓
亡者將之補齊

Visions of disaster are now challenging the wild storms
Cyclops of the midlands wash my bloody shore
Sirens from the open seas now heal my broken wounded brain
I call the holy typhoons... air, fire, earth!
慘絕人寰悲劇場景交織著怒雨暴風
神祇獨眼巨人洗潔染血的海岸
來自無際海洋女妖治療著我的重傷
我呼喚神聖的颱風……大氣、怒焰、大地

The heart of the dragon is screaming awaiting
to write the black last page
The poem of blood was written by them...
the dead lying now on the sand
蟄伏聖龍吶喊等待
出土改寫結局
血腥戰史已經付梓
亡者將之補齊

FROM THE SILENT HILL WE SCREAM LOUD YOUR NAME
MIGHTY POWER OF THE DRAGONFLAME
FROM THE MOUNTAINS PROUD AND STRONG
WE CALL OUR DRAGONLORD
在沉靜山丘吾等喚聖名
無窮力量的聖龍怒焰
在那祟高雄偉群山之峰
吾等呼喚至尊之龍王

Mighty dragon rise... rise!
聖龍,甦醒!甦醒吧!

Energie di cosmi estinti gridano sangue
dalle terre dell'ignoto senza pieta'
滅絕宇宙之力大聲呼喊著鮮血
大地賜與不存仁慈的未知力量

The heart of the dragon is screaming awaiting
to write the black last page
The poem of blood was written by them...
the dead lying now on the sand
蟄伏聖龍吶喊等待
出土改寫結局
血腥戰史已經付梓
亡者將之補齊

FROM THE SILENT HILL WE SCREAM LOUD YOUR NAME
MIGHTY POWER OF THE DRAGONFLAME
FROM THE MOUNTAINS PROUD AND STRONG
WE CALL OUR DRAGONLORD
在沉靜山丘吾等喚聖名
無窮力量的聖龍怒焰
在那祟高雄偉群山之峰
吾等呼喚至尊之龍王


THE MARCH OF THE SWORDMASTER

Ride... die... sacrifice!
上馬……獻身……終無悔

Along the river of bloody tears
the mighty steel shining in my hands
we march and honor our brothers
victims of Kron's evil plan
溯著血淚交錯的河流
握著象徵力量的戰劍
行軍,昂首
向先喪於戰者致敬

We cross the lakes of the holy woods
to reach the ocean where red waves rule
the black king is moving to Algalord
this is the time... he has to be stopped!
穿過聖林圍繞的湖泊
行向紅浪肆虐的海灣
那黑暗之王,正朝吾主城Algalord進政
事不宜遲,必將之趨退

HAIL, HAIL!
...Brave Swordmaster!
MARCH, MARCH!
...Great Swordmaster!
and I ask the wind for the fall of the king...!
勇哉!勇哉!
……勇哉劍隊!
行進!行進!
……偉哉劍隊!
並問向蒼風,敵駕崩何時?

INTO THE RAY OF THE SUN
MARCH OUR HERO HUNTING THE DARKLORD
REBORN FROM THE BLOOD OF HIS GOD...
HIS GOD... THE WARMASTER KRON
RIDE FOR THE FALL OF HIS POWER
FIGHTING THE STORM, THE ROAR OF THE THUNDER
ALLY OF THE SUN AND THE MOON...
GREAT SWORDMASTER RULE!
邁往陽光來向
直殺向仇敵君王
即使敵乃返陽
重生之戰神KRON
手握驕傲力量
劍直指狂風怒雷
心與日月同化
舉劍橫切敵仇腸

Between the waves of the raging sea
echoes of warcries and battle hymns
the underworld's armies found their ancient queen
the funeral march in the depths of the abyss
夾雜於怒濤中的呼喚……
亡者之泣詩、戰場之韻
地獄之軍已得其先后
挾其聲勢,由淵底起行

The terror which strikes the honor which prays
will be face to face in the mortal doomsday
Resist my fierce soldiers their vision can kill
it will test your courage... and your will to live
至高驚懼、無上榮譽
於終末之戰,相互交擊
戰心若堅,可擊其魅
迎接驚懼,汝必不絕命

HAIL, HAIL!
...Brave Swordmaster!
MARCH, MARCH!
...Great Swordmaster!
and I ask the wind for the fall of the king...!
勇哉!勇哉!
……勇哉劍隊!

To avenge all those cries I will rise to the sky
to defend mother life...
Ride... die... sacrifice!
為吾民,復國仇,揚怒火,直抵天
守護吾族命脈
上馬……獻身……終無悔






WHEN DEMONS AWAKE

Oh god don't forsake me, I need to survive
the unholy vision, the eternal bloody night
He pronounced the rites, the slimy queen's awake
the cause is the sword, my sword in Akron's hands
The vomit of evil, the venom of death
is crashing my wisdom, is blocking my legs
They all suck the blood, have ecstasy in pain
eating their flesh, devouring their brains
求上帝憐憫 別將我拋棄
眼見污穢影 夜已成血腥
邪儀已完禮 魔后已甦醒
只因我聖劍 落入魔手裡
召致人亡矣 淫邪口沫液
濘固我腳底 浸蝕我心靈
其族皆嗜血 並烈愛酷刑
食我族人肉 啜族人腦液

Dead and vampires spit out from hell...
is the new legion of the lord of the damned
The vengeance of the gods, soon their heads will roll
Oh, bringer of chaos... you will pay for all!
Bowels' rain around me, brothers mutilated
oh disfigured faces, flying army and bones
Fuck you bloody bastard, demon's raped soul
die into oblivion with your shitty sons
行屍與妖獸 自獄底出走
身投群軍眾 為敵王新寵
惹怒眾神火 滅頂日不久
混亂之禍根 必使償其求
弟兄命慘喪 臟腑如雨灑
兇行之骷髏 其貌如烙肉
我心下詛咒 咒其污穢魂
魂滅丹青中 絕代無繼後

I'M THE NORDIC WARRIOR
HUNTER OF THE MARCHING DEAD
I'M THE BLOODY HAND OF TYTANS
WHEN... WHEN DEMONS AWAKE
此生受洗為極地之兵
狩獵 殺盡死靈軍
此身獻為戰神之血器
於此 惡魔甦醒時

Inferno apri rubami l'anima
voglio sfidare l'oscuro demone
Tutto e' in me, cielo e oceani
fratelli gargoyles, volate qui da me
地獄群魔欲奪我靈
我靈堅志殺盡群魔
心胸充塞蔚藍之恨
坐看群魔朝我襲來

Oh god don't forsake me, I need to survive
the unholy vision, the eternal bloody night
He pronounced the rites, the slimy queen's awake
the cause is the sword, my sword in Akron's hands
The vomit of evil, the venom of death
is crashing my wisdom, is blocking my legs
They all suck the blood, have ecstasy in pain
eating their flesh, devouring their brains
求上帝憐憫 別將我拋棄
眼見污穢影 夜已成血腥
邪儀已完禮 魔后已甦醒
只因我聖劍 落入魔手裡
召致人亡矣 淫邪口沫液
濘固我腳底 浸蝕我心靈
其族皆嗜血 並烈愛酷刑
食我族人肉 啜族人腦液

很快地,劍隊(swordmasters)展開了義無反顧的行軍。三個月後,這支由冰之戰士引領的軍隊,在南部的沼澤區中遭遇了Akron和Dargor的軍隊。瑩瑩月光下,群狼悲鳴,刀光劍影,金石之音,劃破了深夜的寧靜。


 
 這如戲劇般的戰役將肯定被後人視為Enchanted

Lands的歷史中最悲慘的其中一頁。我們美麗家國的戰士們,各個都無法從幾近發狂的精神壓力中逃脫,永遠不知道有什麼樣的敵人在前方等待著。但是
Aresius已經警告過他們,必須要做最壞的打算,沒有人可以指引他們任何方向。由於翡翠神劍現正被Akron的瘋狂意志給操控著,使得大量的魔物得以
穿越混亂之門。他們之中包括了翼獸、巨蟲、活死人、吸血鬼等。


  所有的戰士立刻瞭解了他們的終點是多麼的艱難,但是無際的遠方並沒有擊碎了他們的心靈;相反的,這反倒是激起了他們的腎上腺素,堅固了他們為被敵所粗暴地拷打、殺戮的同胞們復仇的意志。






AGONY IS MY NAME

One for the pain and two for my name
three for my wonderful kingdom
Four for my king, five for my queen
Six for the fall of my wisdom...

生 死 榮 譽
時空交錯出滿地橫屍之韻文

經過一場激烈的撕殺,留下了無數駭人的殘肢景象,冰之戰士終於到達了黑山(Black Mountain)並與那污影之主(Shadowlord)決戰。在雙方的纏鬥之後,邪惡的污影之主Dargor失足跌下石基,這也等於是跌入了絕境,沒有任何逃脫的可能。此時的他,仰天長嘯,乞求著冰之戰士爽快地給他一刀。但是,在一陣內心的掙扎之下,冰之戰士伸出之他的手,將Dargor拉了上來,饒了他一命。因為,他認為Dargor只是由於在Helm的巫師,Aresius永遠的敵人--Vankar的錯誤教導之下,才會有如此的作為。
  但對於Dargor,他並不能理解這個行為以及其中是否有所意圖。Vankar總是告訴他說冰之戰士是如何屠殺他的族人,耳眩目染中,他也無所懷疑了。所以,他接著馬上給冰之戰士補上一劍。沒有意料到如此的動作,冰之戰士倒了下來,失去了知覺,聖血流成了河……他望著Dargor,就像是正問著他:「為什麼?」
  當我們的英雄甦醒,他正與其它數千名士兵一同處於敵方的牢寵之中。他意識到,對於他,也對於每個人,一切都已經結束,無力以回天。在Elnor和Thorald淪陷之後,最後的抵抗也被敵所破,Algalord註定要被瓦解了。天啊~誰能夠事先估計當那翡翠神劍的力量落入了敵人手中,而不是在我們的冰之戰士手中,造成的後果到底有多麼駭人。
  現在,我們所能做的,只有向銀兵神祇(the steelgods)祈禱了。戰神Kron的憤怒已經無法平息了。千萬要當心啊,聖城Algalord!






LAMENTO EROICO

Langue in me l'eco infranto
al truce sguardo dell'angelo cieco
rovina in me l'antica rima
nel cuor del cigno ferito e morente...
孱弱圍縈的破碎迴音
直抵往盲天使深處心底
古老遺韻再增添惆悵
使傷者更傷、湖鵝斷腸

Cosmi di eternita' tradita
di verita' svanite che ora versano
lacrime d'addio in un vuoto nero...
sincero e fiero al mio destino andro'...
宇宙背棄了永恆
虛幻的真實中,眾人淚落
傷別之淚流落,在茫然中
衷心地、飲恨地,踏上命運的路徑

URLA IL TUONO
AL MIO LAMENTO EROICO
SORTE... CONSUMA LA REALTA'!
悲吼喚天
英雄的絕命哀嘆
揚起 不止銷魂傷感

Spiriti di mondi arcani
chiedo la vita al di la' della morte
per allinear le stelle amiche
e diventar guardiano celeste
美麗世界的英勇亡魂
我代之問天:何去何從
天上星辰,排成縱列
似乎英靈已成天堂守護

Custode di eternita' guarita
di verita' trovate per tutti i figli di madre terra...
sempre a lei ho dato la vita... la morte...
cosi' continuero'!
重立新職,於天堂守衛

STEELGODS OF THE LAST APOCALYPSE

Soon... winter again...
...snowlord come...
Come and cover those grey walls...
冬,驟降臨
雪封冰
冰雪凍封牢籠

...VIOLENCE CALLS!
I want his fall...
his epic fall... in this evil war...
...fought to protect our ancient throne
……狂嘯天際!
只冀其亡……
其峰芒喪……於此穢戰之中
……使正統王室延續

From this grey prison I look at you
my lost and beloved wasted holy town
I call the prophecy's miracle
the thunder of the ancient book's word
從灰色牢籠中凝視
我失守的殘存的聖城
哀求著上蒼實現預言
降臨古書中那審判之雷

WE ARE...
WE ARE THE ONES...
WHO'LL FACE THE STEELGODS
OF THIS LAST APOCALYPSE...
...LAST APOCALYPSE!
身負
身負天命
面對掌戰神祇
立決於終末天啟……
……於終末天啟

Now... Algalord lies...
in the shades...
of my shy mystic rainbow...
然,聖城覆沒
在影之中
幽閉虹彩高掛天空

...VIOLENCE CALLS!
I want his fall...
his epic fall... in this evil war...
...trapped behind these humid walls
……狂嘯天際!
只冀其亡……
其峰芒喪……於此穢戰之中
……囚之於陰溼獄中

Raise all your eyes to the autumn skies
capture the energy of that sight
They can have fun with my limbs and bones
but I swear my spirit will never fall
舉目而望向秋季蒼穹
汲取其渾厚於己胸中
即使敵將吾等消磨盡
精神同宇宙長存不朽

WE ARE...
WE ARE THE ONES...
WHO'LL FACE THE STEELGODS
OF THIS LAST APOCALYPSE...
...(OF THE) LAST APOCALYPSE!
身負
身負天命

THE PRIDE OF THE TYRANT

Back into the fire I will have my sword
He won one fight but not the total war
Hurricanes will wipe out the dynasty of Kron
The chains of steel can't hold the holy storm
重回烽火戰場 再舉衝烽聖劍
雖敵已佔上風 尚未穩獲全勝
暴風就要來臨 橫掃敵軍陣營
縱有千斤枷鎖 豈能半點奈何

Sunshine is lighting the ruins of the ancient town
the seven towers are screaming their pain so loud
With my eagles I'll fly free
from snowy mountains to crystal seas
曙光灑落舊城 瓦礫復耀光輝
塵曚巨塔七座 皆起悲鳴之音
隨著巨鷹盤旋天際
起自雪峰終於海瑩

Dargor don't believe him... listen to my words!
You are the one who can still save your soul
Akron is the bastard... he massacred all
The evil hand that serves the will of Kron
Dargor別再執迷 聽我委言幾句
仍保良善心性 回頭還是涯岸
Akron罪無可棺 生民皆因之死
其手染滿血腥 祭給邪神Kron

You hate the tyrant as I and now don't deny
Give me the power to show you that I am right
With my eagles I'll fly free
from snowy mountains to crystal seas
暴政你我同疾 千萬不要否認
加入我方陣營 支持正途方向
隨著巨鷹盤旋天際
起自雪峰終於海瑩

WE WILL FLY TO THE EMPIRE OF STEELGODS
TO DISCOVER THE SECRET OF STORMS
AND AGAINST THE BLACK PRIDE OF THE TYRANT
WE'LL USE IT TO DEFEND OUR THRONE
終將邁向光明之路
探尋遍盡暴風之密
至死抵抗暴政之君
堅持擁護王道之座

Seven flames to not forget, to be sure I'll not regret... ever!
...to become the rage of god... Chaos bringer worse than Kron... beware!
七把火焰 不可忘卻 確定我不會後悔 ……永遠
投身成為 神之怒焰 比Kron更加危險 ……當心

Back into the fire I will have my sword
He won one fight but not the total war
Dargor don't believe him... listen to my words!
You are the one who can still save your soul
重回烽火戰場 再舉衝烽聖劍
雖敵已佔上風 尚未穩獲全勝
Dargor別再執迷 聽我委言幾句
仍保良善心性 回頭還是涯岸

You hate the tyrant as I and now don't deny
Give me the power to show you that I am right
With my eagles I'll fly free

隨著巨鷹盤旋天際
起自雪峰終於海瑩

G A R G O Y L E S , A N G E L S O F D A R K N E S S

I. Angeli di Pietra Mistica

The prophet told of loud thunders quaking the surface of earth
when the black raven would have turned victim of wonderful spells
He would have become a white swan born from the darklands of sin
Neither would Aresius have believed what was now changing in him
Swan... prince of the magic lake... Dargor's your name...
預言中召告:當天雷驟降
黑狼將回首 奔走為無辜之生民
原本的罪惡之子 將成為天鵝的化身
這改變 連睿智的Aresius都無法理解
天鵝……湖中的王子……你的名字叫Dargor

GARGOYLES, FLY
GARGOYLES, RISE
GARGOYLES, FLY
HIGH...!
ANGELI DI PIETRA MISTICA
LADRI D'ANIME FIERI VOLANO
石之天使 高飛
石之天使 上升
石之天使 高飛
崇天之極!
由祕石而生之天使
群起飢渴只為奪魂

Another mess of vampires, masquerade of sadistic pride
He could not endure these cruel games
against him who once spared its life
He realized so not too late to be really far from his king
far from his infinite blood thirst, too far to call them right for him
Rise... fly high and steal his soul... angels of stone...
另一群魔物 戴著殘酷以為傲的面具降臨
Dargor他無法忍受 迎戰的是過去的戰友
他了解 離開過去的陰影還為時未晚
脫離了嗜血的天命 但卻無法一併改變他們
上升……奪走他的靈魂……石之天使

GARGOYLES, FLY
GARGOYLES, RISE
GARGOYLES, FLY
HIGH...!
ANGELI DI PIETRA MISTICA
LADRI D'ANIME FIERI VOLANO
石之天使 高飛
石之天使 上升
石之天使 高飛
崇天之極!
由祕石而生之天使
群起飢渴只為奪魂

Gargoyles, oh my brother gargoyles
Rise now, rise for his soul
石之天使,吾之弟兄
殺!奪他魂魄!

Ti invoco o terra... colora il mio nero...
con fiera lealta' io giuro sincero...
tra anime morte e caos immenso
a Gaia sovrana l'amore piu' intenso... io Dargor a te...
負原生罪 向天乞靈
懷抱赤膽 投誠忠心
貢我獻我 捨身平亂
大地之母 今奉吾感激

II. Exotic Interlude (instrumental)

III. ...And the Legend Ends...

Dargor, do it... it must be done...
free your rage and light your soul...
It's Gaia's call...
Dargor,動手吧,別猶豫……
釋放你的恨意,光明你的靈魂……
這是大地之母的呼喚……

And this is then the epic end
of the legendary tale
of the one who found the light
and the dragonflame inside
of the tragic rain of a thousand flames
of the town's defenders who faced real pain
of symphonies of enchanted lands
of whispers of love and hate
就在此處終結
那傳奇的故事
那尋光明的英雄
那聖龍的怒焰
那火雨交織的悲
那戰士們面對的痛
那母土的波瀾壯闊
那愛與恨的綿綿耳語

The dawn of victory can breathe in the wind
and this would mean the great rebirth
reborn, the one who's giving his life
...the towns lying on the ground
Be one (Be one!) of us (of us!) and
act as all the prophecies want...
To mountains and valleys, to fire and snow,
to sun, moon and wisdom rise your soul...
it's the call...!
勝利的曙光再度閃耀
偉大的重生即將來臨
甦醒,甦醒眾烈士
甦醒殘破的家園
與吾等精神同在
遵從著聖賢預言
昂揚你的靈魂,從山頂到平原,從冰雪到火焰
到旭日,到月光,到宇宙的智慧……
這是深切的呼喚……

Oh, god, my god...
it happened... it happened!
天啊,天啊!
開始了,終於開始了!

...the powerful energies of the furthest secret cosmos
heard the prayer of our mother Gaia, the supreme spirit
who gave us the miracle of life... and her dark son breathed new life...
The power of the dragonflame realized what had seemed to be impossible...
Dargor mortally struck the queen of the dead and called
the mighty gargoyles against the legions of darkness...
He pushed Akron into the hands of the nordic warrior, now a dying victim of terrible tortures... the chosen one let himself fall into the deep marshes constraining the black king, with the emerald sword againin his hands, not to move... they became soon food for the slimy snakes of the abyss...
But this sacrifice had a terrific and great effect and meant the victory on the evil forces of abyss...
Remember, proud brothers... everything is possible... when you let the mystic power of the dragonflame burn in your heart... believe it...
...it's the dragonflame!

  深藏在宇宙深處的神祕力量,聽到了大地之母的呼救。大地之母,他孕育了我們生命的奇蹟,而他偶然的黑暗之子也呼吸了新的生命。那聖龍怒焰的神祕力量感受到了這個被以為不可能的奇蹟。
  Dargor步入正途,向魔后展開激烈的攻擊,並呼喚那些形象怪異的石之天使起來反抗邪惡的執政。
  他乘機將Akron推向冰之戰士的方向。已經受了重傷的冰之戰士,心生一計,用自己的身體將持著翡翠神劍的Akron推向極深的沼澤中,使之無法移動、攻擊。最後,兩個人一起變成沼澤中毒蛇的食物。
  雖然冰之戰士也死了,但死得值得。Akron真的被除掉了,這也意味著無疑地戰勝了地獄深淵邪惡力量。
  記得,值得驕傲的弟兄們。當你讓心中燃起聖龍之火的時候,什麼都可能成真。相信他吧,相信聖龍之火吧!







































































































































"Hello to everyone once again, my friends...

and sorry if I am unable to tell you about everything
that has happened recently without shedding a tear... but
there are no words to describe the pain lacerating my
heart once again!

「再一次的向各位打個招呼,又是我了,我的朋友……

 先向各位說聲抱歉,我可能會沒辦法在穩定的情緒下為你敘述這些事。撕裂我心的痛苦是無法以言語形容的。」

Yes, everything happened as you have probably already
understood... after the siege of Algalord and we were all
made prisoners, the rituals of bloody depravation began
once more...

沒錯,如你所知,在Algalord遭圍攻之後,眾人皆成了階下囚,而血腥的祭禮又再次的展開……

The tragedy was a sad reality, as the magic book of
the prophecies revealed to us many ages ago... but the
next pages told of a thunder breaking the deadly
silence...

and of lightning bolts of pure energy hurtling through
the ancient skies by the gods of wisdom... and that would
be the miracle which would change the events...

這是悲慘的事實,如同預言書中在多年前所斷言的一樣。但是,書的下一頁,記載說將有一道雷光打破寧靜而降臨。並且,當這道智慧之神的雷電穿梭過天際,奇蹟將會來到,解救我們的頹勢。

And my dears... you are probably anxious to know if
something happened or not... eh?

當然,親愛的。你可能焦急地想知道事情是否發生了,是嗎?
Well... this is the last incredible chapter of this
epic tale... and I can tell you that the end of the
events was reserved for an unexpected, legendary, great
and bitter finale...

so... yes... something miraculous soon happened... but in
the shadow of a dark tragedy...!

這個……這是最後一個令人不可置信的章節,在這史詩故事之中。我可以告訴你,結局保留著的是出乎意料、傳奇的、龐大的和劇烈的一幕。所以,沒錯,一些奇蹟就要發生了,但現在,它們仍藏在悲劇的陰影裡。

After the fall of the holy town of the gods, my
brother, the mighty warrior of ice,

was also condemned to endure the bloody games that Akron
used to frighten the people in order to impose his
supremacy...

the chosen one had always been the legendary enemy and
now the chance of torturing his body was exciting Akron's
deepest perversions...
在聖城Algalord淪陷之後,我的兄弟--勇猛的冰之戰士也被Akron用來驚嚇人類而提高自己威嚴的酷刑所折磨:他一直都是傳說所記載的Akron的頭號大敵,折磨他自然給他的邪惡之心帶來快感……
And so he vented his dark rage on the warrior of ice
mutilating both of his legs... yes, my friends... this
was hell, believe me...!

...but when our hero, still alive, was about to be
executed and then thrown in the marshes of Acheros,
condemned to be devoured by the viscid watersnakes, the
miracle happened and the thunder of the prophecy had an
unexpected name: Dargor! Nobody could believe what was
about to happen... Tired of these bloody visions, no
longer accepting the cruelty of his darklord and still
confused by the fact that the chosen one had spared his
life, Dargor raised his steel to the sky mortally
wounding the queen of the dead, hatefully screaming the
name of Akron and invoking the power of the gargoyles...
the black king, furious as never before, turned to the
warrior and immediately understood his intentions... one
sign from his hand and a demonwarrior threw his sword
hitting Dargor's shoulder, throwing him to the ground...
Akron, laughing in his face, revealed to him that he had
been expecting his betrayal because he did not have the
same black blood running through his veins, and that now
he would die in the same way as the others, impaled in
front of the gates of the now conquered Algalord as an
example for all...
然後,他下令將冰之戰士的雙腿砍斷以洩其忿恨。天啊!這真的殺死了所有人的希望,讓世界彷彿成了地獄一般。但當我們的英雄尚存一
息,且正要被投入冥河沼澤,成為沼蛇的食物時,奇蹟發生了!而響起這預言中的雷鳴的,是一個令人驚訝的名字--Dargor!沒人知道會發生什麼事,一切
都來得太突然。因為對血腥感到厭煩,不再認同Akron的殘酷手段,以及對於冰之戰士為何留他一命感到不解,Dargor高舉長劍,將魔后一刀斃命,狂吼
著Akron的名字,並號召石之天使一同起身對抗。黑暗之王Akron從沒有如此刻一般憤怒,此時他轉向他的手下,立刻下達命令,讓所有惡魔軍將劍投向
Dargor,讓Dargor重重摔落地上。面帶著一絲微笑,對Dargor說:「我早就知道會有這麼一天,你身上流的並不是和我一樣的血,你現在將如同
那些人一樣,被刺穿在Algalord的城門之下……」
The demons of Akron moved towards the wounded Dargor,
to imprison him, when the energy of the thunder gave him
the force to throw himself against Akron, pushing him and
making him fall close to where the warrior of ice,
mutilated and dying was lying in a lake of blood. At that
moment the chosen one managed to steal the emerald sword
from the armour of the black king and to strike his face
with it... even the demons of the deepest hell must have
heard Akron's scream when the blade of the holy sword
pierced his right eye... but this was not enough to kill
the king of the darkness ... and so the warrior of ice
wrapped his arms around Akron's neck, choking him...and
at that moment the chosen one screamed to Dargor to move
the wooden execution platform away from the marshes. The
shadowlord of the black mountains saw that this was the
only way to solve the situation radically and immediately
jumped onto the steel lever operating the evil
mechanism... and the platform on which the warrior of ice
and Akron were lying began to slide down towards the
black waters of those dark marshes which stunk of death.
  當Akron的囉嘍們開始走近受傷的Dargor,意圖拘住他時,一道閃電給了Dargor力量將Akron推向在死亡邊緣
的冰之戰士。此時,冰之戰士奪到了翡翠神劍,並拿它向Akron的面部猛力一擊。Akron慘叫,叫聲甚至傳到了地獄的底層,但是,這是殺不死Akron
的。於是,冰之戰士用手臂環住了Akron的脖子,試著把他勒斃,並大喊要Dargor將沼澤上的平台打開。Dargor眼見這是唯一可以根除Akron
的方法,就跳上了平台的控制閥。平台向下垂落,下面是黑色腐臭的泥沼。
The chosen one, keeping his choking hold still in
place with all his might with the help of the emerald
sword and with the black king trying to free himself,
cried his thanks to Dargor for repaying the favour of the
past, despite his inability of helping the hero of the
northern lands, who was now destined to certain death...
  冰之戰士用全力將Akron固定住,Akron也使勁掙脫。這時,冰之戰士對著Dargor感謝他的回報,儘管他無法改變冰之戰士註定要死於當下的事實。
But that was how the prophecy was written and the
warrior of ice finally slipped into the viscid waters...
and Akron with him, the emerald sword not allowing him to
react...
  就如同預言所說,冰之戰士帶著被翡翠神劍制約住的Akron一起沉沒了。
From that moment on the two bodies and the mighty
holy sword disappeared into the depths of the marsh and
when the hungry black snakes came for their meal
everybody knew that it was finished... yes... it was
really finished for our mutual friend... thanks to the
warrior of ice and Dargor's betrayal, the nightmare in
person, known as Akron was suddenly just a bad memory of
the past...

And that moment also miraculously meant the end for the
demons' evil army...
  兩具軀體和翡翠神劍沉入沼澤,而裡頭飢餓的黑蛇鑽了出來,這代表,一切都結束了……也是我們共同的夥伴生命結束了……幸虧冰之戰士與Dargor最後的行為,人們的夢魘--Dargor成了過去的記憶了。而惡魔的軍隊也在此時瓦解了。
Vankar had tought Dargor the power of the
gargoyles... but the evil wizard could never have
imagined that his disciple would use it to face his own
hell... but that was what happened!
  Vankar把石之天使的力量傳授給Dargor,但他料想不到他的門人會拿他來對付他賣命的地獄,但,事情就是如此。
The majestic gargoyles of stone became alive and flew
from the far towers of Hargor to clash against the demons
of the abyss... and also at that moment the astonished
warriors of the enchanted lands understood that the
prophecy of the ancients was finally being realized...
oh, god... to the mighty call of the steelgods of the
last apocalypse they raised their weapons once again,
taking advantage of the new situation... from defeated
prisoners they became the materialized cosmic fury of the
titans and before the new moon, the victory was a
reality... and this time, it was total victory against
the hordes of hell... yes, brothers... the great final
victory...
  石之天使甦醒,並從Hargor的巨塔飛來,對抗來自深淵的惡魔。此時,Enchanted
Lands的戰士們震驚地了解到,古老的預言此時已經應驗。神啊!  在終末天啟之戰神的號召下,戰士們再舉起了武器,在全新的情勢下再次進攻。之前失敗的戰犯,變成在新月前具體化的泰坦之怒,搶回真實的勝利。這一次,總算是大獲全勝了!沒錯,大獲全勝!
magic lightning suddenly crashed into the earth, a
terrific quake made the ground tremble... and the
victorious brothers' gargoyles returned to Dargor one
last time to complete their quest... the angels of mystic
stone spread their wide wings and, with their long limbs,
they took the rest of the demons and the creatures lying
on the dusty ground... the portals of chaos located
between the crypts of the ghostlands were their
destination... the souls of the damned reached their old
dimension somewhere far beyond and the gargoyles, thanks
to a great act of positive magic, were able to close
them, again becoming mighty guardian angels... they would
keep the passage and not allow anyone to open the gates
again... that was really the conclusion of a nightmare
that seemed to have no end... but finally and luckily for
us all the word "end" began to have a meaning
once again...
  一道強光突然照亮整片大地,接著整片大地猛烈搖晃了起來,石之天使最後聚集在Dargor身邊,然後展開雙翼,把地上所有屍
體帶到走,他們的目的是Ghostland土窖的混亂之門。那些剩下的魔物回到遙遠的老巢,而石之天使則又化為守衛天使,他們會守著這條通道,不讓任何人
打開這個門。這就是夢魘的結局,原來它似乎是沒完沒了的,但最後,「結束」幸運地又擁有了意義。
Well, my friends... I used all my magic to fight
those bastards... even Vankar was a victim of my white
magic... and now after some time spent in recouperating
to some extent my mental sanity and having to accept the
death of my brother I can finally smile under the sun
that lights up my wonderful Elgard...
  朋友,我用盡了我所有的魔法,甚至連Vankar都死在我的白魔法之下。現在,在時間的治療下,我回復了心靈的健全,也逐漸能冷靜面對我兄弟的死亡,終於我能夠在照躍Elgard的陽光下展開笑容了。
He's not with us any more... my valorous friend, the
hero of the northern lands, is gone... but his sacrifice
was exemplary and will be remembered in the next ages by
all, as a testament of love for these lands...
  他再也不能和我們一起存在,我勇敢的朋友,北方的戰士,已經離開了人世。但是,他的犧牲將照亮這片大陸,人們將永遠記得他,視為對這片大陸的愛的聖約。
And Dargor's act of wisdom ... also he will be
remembered as a great man...

when the dark meets the light, to create the twilight...
everything is possible and most of the time... the
shadows can hold magic! After the last battle he
disappeared... nobody saw him again... is he still there
?? Anyway thanks once again, wherever you are, mighty
shadowlord of the black mountains!
  還有Dargor的明智決擇,也使他的良善被傳頌。當黑暗與光明交接,曙光就出現了。什麼都可能發生,最意外的就是,黑暗中也能透出光明!在戰爭結束後,他也消失無蹤,再也沒人看見過他,不知道他還在不在。無論如何,再向他致上一次敬意,無論他在何方。
The reconstruction of Algalord, the noble town of the
enchanted lands, will begin during the next moons... and
this time the gargoyle will be the new symbol of the
town, to witness what I was telling you before about the
tones of sunshine...
  Enchanted Lands的最高首都-Algalord的重建工作下個月就要展開了。這一次,石之天使將成為這個都市的新象徵,以見證我已經告訴你的,那陽光的色調。
In the meantime my brothers are hailing the gods of
wisdom before rivers of red wine and from the south to
the north the name of Dargor and the chosen one are on
the lips of all...
  同時,我的同胞們正以紅酒歡呼著智慧之神,並且,大陸上所有的人把Dargor和冰之戰士掛在嘴邊。
So my friend... with these last lines I wrote the
last page of this book... the saga of the emerald sword
can now be considered ended... one book of a million
books telling about the cosmic fight between good and
evil... written again with the blood of heroes... for a
cosmic perspective that will soon reveal itself... in one
amongst a thousand realities...! Hail to you
all...!"
  所以,我的朋友,故事到此告一段落,翡翠神劍的傳說就這麼結束了。這只是成千上萬本關於善惡相爭的書中的其中一本,用英雄們的鮮血寫成。在廣大的展望之下,他們自然會在成千上萬個事實當中,閃耀著他的光茫。歡呼吧!

Rain Of A Thousand Flames



DIES IRAE

REGNA NELL' OSCURITA'



終末 審判

王國 墜入 昏暗



Guardians of the moonlight bring the spell alive

through the sphere of sorrow lead my holy ride

Titans of the desert face the warlord's pride

fighters from the near lakes join the tragic night



月之戰士 施起術法

深慟我心 引我上陣

沙湯戰神 與敵交鋒

激昂志士 亦入軍陣



War of the ghostland take your souls

but give us freedom once and for all

...firestorm!



戰場拋顱吼聲四起

為了人民在所不惜

……火焰風暴降臨!



Under the rain of a thousand flames

we face the real pain falling in vain

While the dark angel screams for vengeance

in the dead shadow of falling stars



身處雄雄戰火中

萬千苦痛與交峰

黑暗天使對仇吼

流星瑩影舞於風



Silent cries of virgins touch the heart of night

raped by the demons under painful sights

Sperm and blood and terror chaos in my head

Is the law of evil triumph for the damned



靜夜痛哭 心如針扎

可憐公主 受魔凌辱

血與精液 驚與混沌

仇魔藉此 召告勝利



War of the ghostland take your souls

but give us freedom once and for all

...firestorm!



戰場拋顱吼聲四起

為了人民在所不惜

Under the rain of a thousand flames

we face the real pain falling in vain

While the dark angel screams for vangeance

身處雄雄戰火中

萬千苦痛與交峰

黑暗天使為仇吼

流星瑩影舞於風



...moonlight is the witness of the most tragic day for our lands...

nothing seems possible to change the destiny of war...

Lament of heroes reach the deep skies

fill the wide cosmos and free my pain... my pain!



……所有敵之罪惡、吾等之傷悲,皆在月光下見證

戰如繫於弓上之箭,不可不發……

英雄慟哭植入天際

悲動宇宙解放我靈



Under the tain of a thousand flames

we face the real paon falling in vain

While the dark angel screams for vangeance

in the dead shadow

of falling stars



身處雄雄戰火中

玫瑰色的低語拭去無罪者的血水

從深淵中她返回世間嗥吼著判決



The witches are riding, wolfs howl at the moon

while candles are lighting the black mess of fools

The daughter of evil the mistress of shame

her tomb is now open to allow her awake

...'cause she is the princess of sorrow,

'cause she is the bringer of pain

while gothic portals of sadness call her unpronouncable name



巫之闇影劃夜空 狼之嚎響月光中

燭之淚委委落下 污之眾群圍燭火

魔之女沉睡以久 恥之婦將醒於愁

其之墳已然開啟 其之身將見於世

身為悲劇之王妃 帶來痛苦的深淵

悲劇之門已開啟 召其不祥之靈體



Moonlight is lighting her face

down in the crypt of the damned

Her sins will not be the last

when the rituals start



月光灑在其紅顏

身已進咒之深淵

魔之祭召其魂回



Black candles burning announce her come back

The reign is awaiting the queen of the dead.. of the dead



暗色火燭 召告其降世

暗黑帝王 久候其死寂之皇后



The poison is ready, the words are pronounced

the portals are open, her soul wanders through

Her body is moving, her heart of bitch pounds

Is kron who lives in her, in her open wounds

...'cause she was devoted to darkness, drinking black blood for her god

Witch of perversion and luxury suicide as true lover of Kron



祭之毒酒已具備 祭之誓言已徹天

魔之大門已敞開 女之遊魂飄然進

其之靈體移無形 其之毒心猛敲擊

Kron自其傷裂口 悄悄駐進其靈體 

其將自身獻幽冥 飲血世間皆信仰

墮落與奢華之后 墜入Kron擁懷中



Moonlight is lighting her face

Godforsaken bitch...! Your fucking army of dead

天啊……通路已開

其污穢之邪靈就要通進

神所不齒的賤女人!

你的死靈之軍是絕不可能摧毀智慧之環的……注意了!



My land don't cry

My birds don't stop to fly

Poor child don't die

don't let her taste your blood



吾國吾土別啼泣

吾國飛鳥別驚懼

吾國子孫別放棄

別讓魔女將你飲



Gargoyles and wizard prepare the last ride

mountains and valleys are calling your might

Mystical sunshines prelude to her coming

the black flame of evil is burning and growing



奇肢異體交巫覡 磨刀磨槍上殺陣

千山交織萬谷壑 迴盪盼望催英雄

日光異狀東邊起 向世召告魔降臨

暗黑邪火肆虐生 愈燒愈盛不止息



Queen... queen of the dark horizons!



魔后……染黑地平線的魔后!



Forests of ghostland give your sad welcome

to the ancestral whisper of hell

Sodomy, pestilence, torture and bloodshed

is what she brings from her past to depraved



萬木叢生魔域處 魔女降臨萬魔迎

引向遠古立根基 迴盪地獄之傳奇

獸姦瘟疫交織起 拷刑流血不止息

女之降臨罪惡生 全因入魔道所以

Yes, my dear friends, the sun shining on our beloved lands seems to not be the same anymore...

from when the magic sword was handled by the black king Akron none of us... none of us can sleep peacefully...

he's clearly preparing his plans of war to attack the people of these wonderful valleys...

the ancient towns of Elnor and Thorald will be surely the first goals in his ambitious and cruel dream of conquest...

Come mighty warrior... come to help your... your...



沒錯,我親愛的朋友。在我們的眼裡,都同樣對明天的朝陽不抱任何希望……



自從翡翠神劍落入敵君Akron手中之後,我們都同樣地徹夜難眠。



很清楚的,Akron已經準備好要來將我們的人民殘殺,



Elnor以及Thrald兩城就是他的征服幻夢成真的開始。



……快來,勇敢的戰士!快來拯救你的……你的……





Oh god!... oh god... no

They found it, they found it... the ancient words are going to be pronounced...

thanks to the cosmic power of the emerald weapon

the book of the dead kept by the dark angel is now open and the rites of blood are going to begin...

Oh no, god!... oh no... I hear those damned words...

Necros, Dagma, Atra, Krona...

I hear them... Necros, Dagma, Atra, Krona

Necros, Dagma, Atra, Krona...

I hear them... Necros, Dagma, Atra, Krona



神啊!救救我們!



他們找到了!他們到達了!



他們口頌著古老的咒語,藉著翡翠神劍的神力,



打開了由闇黑天使守護著的死亡之書,並開始進行血腥的祭典了。



不!天啊~我聽到了那邪惡的呼號--



后冠加冕,殘殺人間……



我聽到了……后冠加冕,殘殺人間。



后冠加冕,殘殺人間……



我聽到了……后冠加冕,殘殺人間。



The abyss will soon spit out thousands of demoniac creatures and she will be back to lead them all...!

Why? Why? The godfoesaken bitch ancient servant of Kron will be free from the spell that was trapping her in the crytpts of the ghostland... what the fathers of my fathers were able to do is going to end...

Oh yes, I knew it... I knew it!

... the power of the emerald sword in the wrong hands can lead to these tragic results... I knew it!

... the waves of the oceans will soon become gaints attacking our towns... and if we don't organize

a valid controffensive to stop those creatures this will only be a tragic...

a tragic prelude to an announced... massacre!



深淵之中,將有無數魔物衝出,然後接受「她」的領導……。



為什麼身為遠古戰神Kron僕役的她能夠從封之於地窖的咒語破出,將祖先的努力付之一炬?



喔,我懂了!我懂了!當翡翠神劍落入邪惡之手,結果就是如此的悲劇。我懂了!



……海面上正醞釀著陣陣海嘯,準備向我們的故鄉侵襲,



要是我們不組織起來形成強而有力的防衛力量,悲劇將會是最終的結局……



悲劇的前奏曲宣示著將要來臨的……大屠殺!

The Poem's Evil Page



The silent willows keep the ancient stone

hidden behind that cryptic door



無言的柳枝 依偎著岩石

不安的互擁 隱密在門後



Rituals of terror quake all the ghostland

the bloody line now paints the cold floor

The evil pages are almost written

with the dark poison of flesh and bones

Fire is raining on the grey mountains

Waters are waiting for the last oath

The way is open... now thay are coming

called by the blasphemous words of the lord



邪惡祭儀式 騷動敵軍心

血紅色畫線 染紅祭壇地

以血肉身骨 祭成絕世毒

寫下悲慘劇 即將告完工

慘灰山麓上 紅火焰林木

唯水猶懷冀 長流林焰間

隱密門已開 敵軍直驅入

胸懷褻瀆意 口念褻瀆語



...and finally the violent waves announce their arrival

and blood will soon be painting the beloved lamenting

ocean...



……然後,激烈的吆喝聲召告了他們的來臨

血,就將要染紅嘆息的海洋了……



The way is open... now thay are coming

called by the words... the words of the lord



隱密門已開 敵軍直驅入

胸懷褻瀆意 口念褻瀆語



Ethereal harmonies spread through all the air...

the unreal calm before Elnor's end...



飄逸的和音,迴繞充滿在空氣中

不尋常的平靜,在Elnor的絕望裡





The Wizard's Last Rhymes



The aim of the serpent, the serpent's creation

reveals itself now through crystal spheres

He's riding the waves as a real conqueror

colliding with ships, the ships of the kings

He owns... your sword!



指向凶猛毒蛇,毒蛇正在成形

顯現其之正身,突出水晶球體

戰士乘風破浪,勢如勝利將至

突與巨船遭遇,遭遇黑暗之王

祂拿著……你的劍



The emerald weapon, the steel of the heroes

Flow the black tears of dark angels

Your blade is now serving the dark force...

the evil source of the unborn

the truth is there... in his hands



翡翠劍之光芒,悲映戰士臉龐

闇天使之淚水,流於神劍身上

汝曾持之神劍,已成敵之兇器

罪惡的源頭,正在不斷瀉流

就在祂的手上……翡翠神劍



QUANDO CORPUS MORIETUR FAC UT ANIMAE DONETUR

屍橫於其上,腐骨遍地散

夜空闇無星光,路程靜如肅殺

穿越智慧的矛盾,直向靈棲的海洋

沉靜夜中,悲劇成真



FIRE IS BLAZING FAST ACROSS THE BLOODY RED SEA

THE SUNLIGHT IS FADING ON HIM

We are reaching the brutal, the tragic dimension

led by reflections , reflections of death

the ghosts in the fog... wander lamenting

while violence devours my wasted brain

Let me... awake!



由迴響所引導,死亡哀鳴之聲

我們到達至此,悲慘殘酷境界

亡靈魂遊霧中,含淚悲鳴遊走

此時野蠻敵軍,暴行意噬吾腦

喚我……甦醒



The astral bewitchement is the fatal witness

of created surge of chaos

I reflect the constellations' fall

Now close your eyes and fight blind

The moon is dying, don't fear his might



寒夜天之星光,目擊一切塗炭

目擊海之怒濤,目擊濤之混沌

舉目仰望群星,群星正在殞落

閉起雙目,舉起配劍

月正消損,無消懼敵



QUANDO CORPUS MORIETUR FAC UT ANIMAE DONETUR

Starless is my night, silent is my ride

through the paradox of wisdom... to the sea of souls

Nel silenzio tragiche realta'



屍橫於其上,腐骨遍地散

夜空闇無星光,路程靜如肅殺

穿越智慧的矛盾,直向靈棲的海洋

沉靜夜中,悲劇成真



FIRE IS BLAZING FAST ACROSS THE BLOODY RED SEA

THE SUNLIGHT IS FADING ON HIM

THESE ARE THE WIZARD'S LAST HOLY SIGHTS...

THE POEM'S TRAGIC RHYMES



怒焰熾烈,燒紅血色海洋

日光餘暉殘灑英雄

這是巫師所見最後光明

詩歌悲傷的韻腳



Fierce blows the wind, infinite fires

on Elnor sea... hail to the king!

He died as brave, oh valiant hero

but so in vain, facing the storm... the storm!



兇猛狂風,無盡戰火

於Elnor之海,為魔歡呼

戰士犧牲,英勇成仁

徒然殺身,風暴接至……暴風起!



And soon the snakes of the abyss

swallowed the mighty woodships

while the waves of the bloody ocean

were reaching the walls of the falling town...



很快的,來自深淵的巨蛇

將威武的戰船給吞沒

血紅海洋的巨濤

淹上了死城的牆墩



My brothers' limbs, food for those snakes

their divine steel, deep under me... under me!



弟兄們的肢體,盡被巨蛇吞沒

剩餘神聖戰甲,沉壓我胸口……我胸口



QUANTO CORPUS MORIETUR FAC UT ANIMAE DONETUR

Starless is my night, silent is my ride

through the paradox of wisdom... to the sea of souls

Nel silenzio tragizhe realta'



屍橫於其上,腐骨遍地散

夜空闇無星光,路程靜如肅殺

穿越智慧的矛盾,直向靈棲的海洋

沉靜夜中,悲劇成真



FIRE IS BLAZING FAST ACROSS THE BLOODY RED SEA

THE SUNLIGHT IS FADING ON HIM

THESE ARE THE WIZARD'S LAST HOLY SIGHTS...

大四西樂理論:分析莫札特KV589第一樂章


(96上,西洋音樂理論基礎)

西洋音樂基礎理論Final

分析曲目:Mozart, KV589, Quartett in B, Allegro part

這是一首降B大調的曲子,呈示部中由降B大調向F大調(屬調)前進,而在發展部中經過了f小調、降D大調、g小調、C大調,再回到降B大調的再現部。我們先從呈示部談起:

在呈示部中,1~26小節是主調的範圍,開頭並不是一開始就給了I級的和聲,而是以3音和5音組成了不完整的iii級後,再補上1音變成了I級。在12~13小節第一次以明確的V-I確立了主調的調性,然後接著是與之前不同的素材,有一個主音為pedal tone為其特色。在這個主調的範圍裡,不斷出現鄰音、倚音,造成了半音變化的效果,而這類元素在後面將會不斷出現,成為曲子的特色。另外一個在曲子中很重要的音形就是在9~11小調的三拍子八分音符樂句,以兩種方式呈現,一種是分解和弦,另一種是音階級進,這在後面也時常見到。另外一個在這裡介紹了的音形,是先拉長,而後以一個短的鄰音收束的旋律。

在19~20小節第二次的V-I進行之後,降B大調的色彩開始受到動搖,用的方式是V-vi(而不是接到I)、vi的附屬和弦還有半音銜接的旋律。雖然接著有一個減七和弦接到主和弦,但是下面出現的和弦(F大調的V)會讓人不認為那不是降B大調的I,而是F大調的IV。果然在30~31小節就出現了F大調的V-I,進入了F大調的範圍。這裡的終止式之後,曲子馬上往下進行了,出現的是一個和弦節奏較慢的段落,一個和聲都持續了兩個小節,而交錯出現的級進旋律也讓和聲有被延長了的感覺。直到37~39小節V-I出現後,它又再一次馬上接下去。這一次的和聲節奏就快了,一個小節一個和聲,而且出現了附屬減七和弦,浮現出不同的色彩。44~45小節的V-I之後,曲子還是很快地往下進行。在這裡他讓兩把樂器以八分音符的長度交互演奏,造就了跳躍的感覺,直到60~61小節又出現了V-I,結束了這個段落。這裡又是一個立刻往下接的地方,接著的不管是八分音符分解和弦還是進級,都有先上行再下行的傾向,而且上行坡度較徒,下行的長度較長,於是曲子就很順暢地往前走了。另外搭配出現的,是之前提到過的先拉長,再以鄰音收束的音形。這裡是呈式部的最後一個段落,在結束時出現的連續出現的vii-I,似乎比用V-I還要能延續順暢的感覺,所以我們看到的終止式不是V-I而是vii-I。

進入了發展部之後,第一個出現的是以屬調的平行小調(f小調)來模仿呈示部的的結尾部分,這一段有一種驟然終止的感覺,隨後出現了感覺很安靜的半音進行。好像起霧般地,半音的進行與延長加上鄰音,讓調性變得模糊,直到慢慢地找到了方向,看到了光,在81小節,不急不徐的V-I進行讓接著的降D大調逐漸明亮起來。但是好像也不是那麼明確,因為接下來依舊不急不徐,明確的終止式卻再沒有出現,原本以為找到路了,但其實一直在繞圈圈,直到93小節的iii級以半音變化接到了一個增六和弦之後,接到了g小調的V7,並進一步接到i級,但是他還是不讓接下來有明顯的終止式,有也只是vii-i6這樣被弱化的V-I進行,而且在它之後,增六和弦持續了四小節,這才真的找到了一個方向了。這次增六接到了G調的V級,而且這個V級以V、V7及其附屬減七和弦延續了五個小節之久,然後他接到了I級大三和弦。這是G大調的意思嗎?並不是,在一個小節之內它就揭露了它做為C大調的V7的功能。

接下去的確是C大調。這裡又使用了一開始拉長,再用短的鄰音收束的音形,而另外一把演奏分解和弦的樂器也有先往上再向下的音形,只是每個小節也有一個先往上再往下的一組三連音,與另一部的鄰音做方向相反的呼應。其實這一段還是有不明確的色彩在,在C大調和c小調之間游移,一下用附屬去強調了c小調的III級,一下又出現了C大調的V7-I,然後又附屬了c小調的VII級(降B大三和弦),然後的c小三又變化半音到C大三。接下來拉長的c小調VII級以第二級轉位的形態出現,好像變成了降B大調的屬和弦(一級六四和弦)的功能了嗎?一個附屬的減和弦強調了C的IV級,但是這個IV在延續了兩個小節之後,再一次現出身為屬七和弦的真面目,原來這是降B大調的V級屬和弦才是。這個V級在分解和弦和級進旋律之間,先下行然後上行,到128小節停下來,以半音變化變成了iii級的附屬減和弦,然後接到如呈示部開頭的不完整iii級和弦之後,就正式回到主調,進入了再現部了。

最後,把經過的調排出來,會得到如下的表格。似乎可以隱約看出每次的平行混合,都是為了下一個目標的調做準備(把降D大調看成只是迂迴地繞道,而且其實降D大調是結束在具有附屬的iii級,也就是f小三和弦上,即是主音化到上一個調性:f小調),於是中間經過好幾個調就這麼銜合在一起了。

Hail to everyone!!! ...

  ……還記得我嗎?沒錯!我就是你熟悉的Aresius。不記得啊?我是那住在Elgard的老巫師(但還不算太老……嗎?嘿 嘿 嘿!)Elgard啊。


  在第一章裡,我告訴你Enchanted lands正受到Akron--黑暗之王--領軍的地獄軍隊所侵襲。在那之後,我告訴了你關於翡翠神劍的秘密,以及最後我的一個勇敢的朋友--冰的戰士--如何打開象牙門,拿到翡翠神劍的過程。


  在這裡,我想告訴你的是:在第三章裡,有著勇氣及悲傷更甚於前的故事(也許只是我的主觀認為)。現在,冰的戰士離開了城門,帶著神劍向Ancelot前進,而更多的事情將被發生,我現在就從這裡講起。好好享受這勇氣與榮譽的故事,不要在留戀於之前的Enchanted Lands裡了。未來,神秘的旅程即將再度展開。


Algalord Chronicles part III

  當太陽升起,戰士帶著翡翠神劍,展開了朝向Ancelot的旅程。在旅程中,加入了一批新的生力軍,立志要為了保護Enchanted Lands的安寧而戰。所以,當戰士到達了圜繞在Ancelot的神聖炮郭四周的岩石山群時,他手中的軍隊已經是相當可觀,足以對抗由Dargor--Darkland的王子--領導的惡魔騎士了。


  當他想到Ancelot諸多的犧牲者、以及勇敢守禦著Ancelot的Arwald,這位來自Loregard的英雄--冰之戰士已經沒有更多耐心去等待了。當他一下命令,整個Enchanted Lands的軍隊都舉劍宣示投入聖戰,為了永遠的和平、為了不再有任何無辜的犧牲者、為了終止Darkland不休止的欲望而戰。


  此刻,領導著我們的,是混亂之王的支配……

Lux Triumphans



"At the court of king Chaos only blood

can write its own tragedy..."


「在混亂之王的審判庭上,唯有鮮血能夠寫下這場悲劇……」


Mighty warriors from the silver hills

march, all led by golden winds

Elves and trolls from holy mystic woods

run through the last snow


飛風引領群軍

穿引銀色丘陵

精靈矮人相攜

穿梭將融之雪


He's now coming from the middle lands

handling proud his magic sword

Glory, pride and honor ride with him

Burns the flame of north


來自大陸中部

手持翡翠神劍

帶著驕傲光榮

燃起北方戰火


They will all meet in the Kazar ruins

not so far from Ancelot

In the temple of the fallen one

their hope will be born...


就在Ancelot的不遠

他們即將與Kazar廢墟遭遇

在倒塌的神殿之中

希望將從那兒降生


Born from the ashes of ancient glory... Born!


降生!自古代榮光的灰燼中降生


They all hail the mighty chosen one

reaching the skies with their cry

They are ready to reach Ancelot

Arwald's calling loud...


天命之子為民出征

萬民歡騰舉國同慶

當Arwald疾呼著告急

天命之子將到達Ancelot


"Glory ride with us! Lux Triumphans!

Magic and steelgods lead us to a new dawn..."

「勝利之光!光榮與我軍同在!

 偉哉眾神,引領我軍邁向光明……」


Dawn Of Victory


Fire is raging on the battlefield

while Arwald is fighting the war of the kings

The army of Dargor, the thunder, the storm...

so people are calling the brave and his sword

No time left to save the wise throne!


當Arwald為了國王而拼命

雄雄戰火如同奮怒捲襲

烽火交集,風雷怒吼

人民只有向英雄哭喊求救

為王而戰,刻不容緩


Shades of a past not so far to forget...

the rise of the demons from their bloody hell!

So come mighty warrior to light the lost hope

for Tharos the dragon and your cosmic soul...

Now handle your emerald sword!


昔日陰影還來不及抹去

群魔又從地獄緩緩而起

勇敢的戰士得燃起希望

為了勇敢的犧牲者-聖龍Tharos

舉起聖劍,投入聖戰


For Ancelot

the ancient cross of war

for the holy town of gods

Gloria, gloria perpetua

in this dawn of victory


為了Ancelot

再持遠古神兵

為神的屬地拼命

光榮!自地平線升起

……在這決戰的黎明


The ride of the dead and their practice of pain

is pounding in him as a terrific quake

You're closer and closer now follow their smell

with your holy armour the steel in your hand

Fly angel of bloody revenge!


逝去戰友以及痛苦考驗

以撼天震地之勢無情打擊

而今日敵營已近,近如貼身

你全副武裝,不休的追擊

如同天使染仇血腥


For Ancelot

the ancient cross of war

for the holy town of gods

Gloria, gloria perpetua

in this dawn of victory


為了Ancelot

再持遠古神兵

為神的屬地拼命

光榮!自地平線升起

……在這決戰的黎明


Tragic and furious the clash of the steel of

the gods and so magic the power, the sword

in his valorous hands

Oceans of fire are blasting the throne of the

demons and from distant red skies the

thunders are calling his name the name of the master of pain!


集合著悲慘與狂怒如同鋼鐵堅硬

有如神力加持之神劍在勇者的手掌心

火焰燃燒海天之際直達敵軍主營

遠方紅色天際陣陣落雷呼喚聖名

主掌制裁天神之名


For Ancelot

the ancient cross of war

for the holy town of gods

Gloria, gloria perpetua

in this dawn of victory


為了Ancelot

再持遠古神兵

為神的屬地拼命

光榮!自地平線升起

……在這決戰的黎明


Triumph For My Magic Steel 


Flies to where old dragons are lying

the cry for the triumph for my magic sword

Burns the pride of my mighty conscience

while rises the sceptre of our wise lord

So thunder and storm, the rage of the sword

the fury of my war

The axe of the dwarf, the blood on the stone

the scream for the eternal


飛向群龍安眠之所

為將至的光榮凱旋而狂吼

燃起心中不屈的良知

為了擁護君主登上王座

當風雷交集,吾高舉聖劍

戰場燃怒火

矮人持其斧,鮮血灑滿路

狂吼永不止息


Rage in the wind at the triumph for my magic steel

you will taste the blade of the ancient sword... and

Rage in the wind at the triumph for my magic steel

led by hundreds of mighty and fallen lords


怒氣與風交織,召告吾軍終將得勝

遠古聖劍終會把你淌血

怒氣與風交織,召告吾軍終將得勝

千百位逝世聖王引領著我


Dead, laments and unholy sorrow

The heads of the fallen are staining the snow

May this be the last hated cruel war

I'm looking at my skies but they answer not!

So thunder and storm, the rage of the sword

the fury of my war

The axe of the dwarf, the blood on the stone

the scream for the eternal


死亡、哀悼、傷悲

亡者頭顱染紅了白雪

我想也許……戰爭就要了結

但無情的天空即刻向我搖首

當風雷交集,吾高舉聖劍

戰場燃怒火

矮人持其斧,鮮血灑滿路

哀嚎永不止息


Rage in the wind at the triumph for my magic steel

you will taste the blade of the ancient sword... and

Rage in the wind at the triumph for my magic steel

led by hundreds of mighty and proudly fallen brave lords


怒氣與風交織,召告吾軍終將得勝

遠古聖劍終會把你淌血

怒氣與風交織,召告吾軍終將得勝

千百條戰場上縱馳的英魂引導著我


Old cathedrals dusty graves where nest the seeds of holy victory

Blood from old crypts gushing out to drown the deadly cosmic enemy

Steel all around for the king and his crown

Winds of the dawn are caressing us all...

Ancelot smiles at the knights' epic cry

Thanks to the old and their emerald sword

The kingdom is now hailing the triumph over Dargor

and he the man from Loregard he stands in front of all... of all!


古教堂中靜謐墳墓裡祖先種下勝利種子

由土窖中湧出雄雄熱血勢要將大敵殲滅

為了國王揭起佩劍

清晨微風洗去塵灰

Ancelot親吻騎士痕淚

祖先披澤賜予聖劍

擊敗Dargor舉國皆騰

冰之戰士領眾齊歡


The Village Of Dwarves


The dwarves of Lork are showing all their honour

when you walk on the Gandor secret hill

The elves are playing under timeless willows

while blue and red paint all my beloved land

柳樹枝下 精靈嘻戲其間


The dance for fire and wind

and the stories about old kings

are pleasing our brave lords

down in the village of dwarves


火焰與風共舞

矮人陳述舊事

The eagle's eye is hiding something tragic

but in this night the red wine rules in me

before the end of the night

the march of the swordmaster

to the unholy fight


歡愉營夜將盡

眾兵動身啟程

握起沉重銳劍

行向血腥沙場


Dargor, Shadowlord Of The Black Mountain


Mighty and brave is the fighter of shade

He's prince of the darklands... Dargor his name

Adopted by Vankar, old wizard of Helm

disciple of evil he twisted his brain


身形如彪,膽識不小

黑暗王子,名曰Dargor

Vankar老覡,收養扶成

成人之後,恩報以仇


Fire burns between pride and honour

Steel wild pounds in his dragonheart

Face to face with the cult of evil

Prince of lands of the darkest dream


烽焰燃於榮傲之間

雄心猛擊如鐵沉動

祭壇之上英姿現身

黑暗王子黑暗之夢


We sing to the wind the legend of the kings

to spread our heart to the kingdom of dust

where heroes are lost, where's reigning the shadowlord


吾等隨風唱和,那先王的故事

使得吾心強盛,入塵灰之異土

在那裡,英雄徒死;在那裡,黑暗當政


Power and glory but for the wrong side

For his tragic past he disowned the sunlight

But Akron knows well all the truth of that day

He needs him as fighter, a warrior so brave


徒具英勇,卻行岐途

因身世悲,與光明敵

Akron有知,收之入麾

成其戰士,為其賣命


Fire burns between pride and honour

Steel wild pounds in his dragonheart

Face to face with the cult of evil

Prince of lands of the darkest dream


烽焰燃於榮傲之間

雄心猛擊如鐵沉動

祭壇之上英姿現身

黑暗王子黑暗之夢


We sing to the wind the legend of the kings

to spread our heart to the kingdom of dust

where heroes are lost, where's reigning the shadowlord


吾等隨風唱和,那先王的故事

使得吾心強盛,入塵灰之異土

在那裡,英雄徒死;在那裡,黑暗當政

continues...

  ……在傳奇的一戰--勇士們對抗Dargor的軍隊結束之後,Ancelot再次獲得了新生的此刻,冰之戰士舉起了聖劍,在血腥惡臭的氣味中,宣示著勝利。兩位勇敢的戰士--冰之戰士以及Arwald,成功地帶領著Enchanted Lands邁向了勝利,他們的英名將永遠被傳頌,他們的故事將永遠被王室裡的戲劇班給上演。但是,戰爭依舊是戰爭,雖然終止了暴行,但是這股喜悅終究擋不住為了犧牲者所流下的淚、以及憤怒。


  戰爭還沒結束!Arwald所親愛的公主Airin,在Ancelot遭受圍攻時,被敵方給捉了去。為此,這群來自南方的軍隊,踏上了向更北的征途,準備攻向位於Darkland中樞的地獄之城--Hargor。


  Dargor帶著軍隊已經穿過了Dragonlands,要在他們回到Akron的王座(巢穴)之前追上,簡至不可能。


  所以,在接著的日子中,當救援還在計劃,冰之戰士與Arwald能做的只有空等待,等待黑暗之王的進一步行動。


  因為報信者傳來了消息,使得所有人心中潛藏的恐懼都暴發了出來:Akron的爪牙,拿著武器對準在他們手上的人質。牠們要脅著要我們以傳說的神器--沒錯,就是翡翠神劍--來交換在牠們手上的人質。天啊,這把武器被牠們拿走之後,究竟會造成什麼後果?但已沒時間去猜測了,必須即刻採取行動。於是Arwald與冰之戰士向Hargor啟程,而Akron也保證只要一拿到神劍就立刻放人。但是,冰之戰士心裡明白,若是這把武器落入了對方手中,將會讓對方達成征服Enchanted Lands的夢想。


  在這裡我可以告訴你冰之戰士所想的是正確的,就像我一開始告訴過你的:神聖聯盟和Akron的軍隊之間,一場血戰在DarkLands和Enchanted Lands的邊境開打,而翡翠之劍的神力足以決定這場戰爭的結果。所以,我的朋友,現在就抬起頭,向天空呼喊那最巨的仇意……對,就是那發怒血仇的泰坦神!


The Bloody Rage Of The Titans


Between my trees the unicorn runs

from the highest mountains the water falls

Flowers and plants now caress my eyes

along these holy valleys kissed by light

And I am victim of this spell

wonderful symphony of enchanted lands...


獨角在樹間嘻戲

瀑布從高山奔流

花與草,在我眼間撫過

……當我經過煦日、村莊時

我,在自然魔咒中失神

失神在Enchanted Lands之交響曲


The whisper of spring is now carried by winds

the winds from the land of the fire

Where peace is a gift from the king of the kings

It seems so strongly unreal... unreal!


風從烽火中吹來

傳遞春天的氣息

祖先給了長久和平

雖受攻擊仍舊堅毅


Dragons and demons beware!

It's the rage of the titans...

Is the titans' bloody rage!

Warlords and steelgods beware!

It's the rage of the titans...

Is the titans' bloody rage!


當心了!醜惡的群獸

這是神祇的憤怒

這是神祇血腥的憤怒

當心了!嗜殺的魔頭

這是神祇的憤怒

這是神祇血腥的憤怒


The oak, my sister, smiles at the sun

now free from the weight of winter

The eagles fly from mountain to mountain

enchanting my heart... brave heart!


橡木脫去舊積雪

微笑在新春的和煦

傲鷹翱翔群山間

震憾我勇敢的心


Dragons and demons beware!

It's the rage of the titans...

Is the titans' bloody rage!

Warlords and steelgods beware!

It's the rage of the titans...

Is the titans' bloody rage!


當心了!醜惡的群獸

這是神祇的憤怒

這是神祇血腥的憤怒

當心了!嗜殺的魔頭

這是神祇的憤怒

這是神祇血腥的憤怒


Holy Thunderforce



Face me evil bastard, smell the hate of angels

Glory, pride and bloodshed

Cowards and beholders, rapers of my wisdom

mix of dust and bones

Go back to your abyss, Algalord will not fall

but your heads will soon roll

Test the blade of heroes, fury of the thunder

hit my golden shield


魔鬼!不要逃避,聞我仇恨呼息

光榮 驕傲地流血

儒夫!準備償還,過去汝所強奪

汝將 化成骨與灰

滾開!回到窠穴,Algalord非汝能攻

反而 汝頸人頭落

有種!試這神劍,帶著雷的怒火

來吧 擊我的金盾


So we'll fight against the wind for the glory of the kings

to defeat the evil enemies

And we'll ride with our lord for the power and the throne

in the name of holy thunderforce


我們逆風而行進 為光榮而出擊

迎面萬惡仇敵

我們跟隨著聖君 為保王而出擊

藉著雷神聖名


Arwald and Aresius with the nordic warrior

on their way to Hargor

Chaos and oblivion, turmoil and disorder

will have now their name

The last fallen heroes will defeat your forces

Thousand spirits calling

On the furthest mountain I will see your fire

quenched by holy frost!


前進!Arwald及Aresius 帶著萬馬千軍

進向Hargor的大道

血債!過去撕殺 染血我的祖國

現在要你們血償

保佑!已逝英雄 護著我國萬民

召集無數的英魂

遠方!山勢盡頭 汝等不熄怒火

將在冰雪中安息


So we'll fight against the wind for the glory of the kings

to defeat the evil enemies

And we'll ride with our lord for the power and the throne

in the name of holy thunderforce


我們逆風而行進 為光榮而出擊

迎面萬惡仇敵

我們跟隨著聖君 為保王而出擊

彰顯雷神聖名


The Last Winged Unicorn


The seven red flames of the cave

are lightning the horrible torture

constricted to see he regrets

to have had the life from his god

Airin sheds black tears supporting the terrible rape

the fury of the sons of the thunder

is breaking the mystical chain


七把燒紅的巨焰

照亮了駭人的苦痛

令人無法去承受

生命竟是如此難以捉摸

Airin淚臥在輪姦拷打之下

雷神之子的怒火

來不及為她除去枷鎖


Arwald falls so to his knees

while Akron the black king is laughing

the princess falls down on the stones

with no breath of life anymore

May your ambition lead you to the unholy name

So my soul will fight you forever

in one of the many new hells


Arwald含淚驟跪

Akron仍在傲聲狂嚎

公主橫倒在冷石之上

其命已絕 其魂仍悲

你這冷血禽戰已經絲毫沒有人性

我發誓要將你撕裂

在你給自己打造的地獄間


From the holy sea of golden flames

flies the last winged unicorn

With its magic breath of innocence

rising to the crystal throne


自聖海中升起的仇火

終末的飛翔獨角獸

載著犧牲者們的殘息

向上飛升到水晶座


Skies are spitting holy fire wisdom cries and deadly whispers flow

Flow down to silent mystic shores

Shores of spirits thirst for vengeance waiting for their holy crystal gate

Gate to the sunny holy lands


無盡蒼穹落下聖火泣下聖淚言致命耳語

落在無聲的海岸

神祕海岸練淨復仇寄託希望於和平水晶門

通向光明的聖地


"Lands of a timeless world...

an enchanted timeless world like no other...

there where magic flowers paint the cosmic landscape

and noone knows the word... pain!"

Tears of blood and sadness formed the wonderful silent lake

Swans and birds in water games will call Airin's name... her name!


「聖地,不滅的聖地……

 一個被施下和平魔法的唯一聖地

 奇幻美麗的花朵,點綴了它的宇宙

 在那裡,人人視痛苦如無物……」

悲傷的血淚匯成靜謐的美麗湖泊

湖裡的珍禽不戲水,呼喚著Airin……Airin


And now is the time to decide

on a way to escape from the cavern

the old silver chains on the wall

are now also trapping their souls

Airin my princess I can not endure all my pain

but I swear to you on my proud name...

you'll open the mystical gate!


把握難得時機

逃離巨穴深淵

但巨穴牆上舊鏈

卻深深捆住了靈

Airin,我的公主,如此苦痛我無法承受

但我以名譽向妳發誓

我會為妳敞開聖地之門


From the holy sea of golden flames

flies the last winged unicorn

With its magic breath of innocence

rising to the crystal throne


自聖海中升起的仇火

終末的飛翔獨角獸

載著犧牲者們的殘息

向上飛升到水晶座


The Mighty Ride Of The Firellord


Cruel Akron bloody bastard I now spit on you

You can turn my bones to black ash but I'll move the moon

I will light your evil kingdom

and your heart will burn in flames

Mutilated or dismembered

we'll soon rise to eat your brain

You will pay for your victims and for Airin's bloody rape

For Arwald my dear friend and all my crying wasted land

I call the rage of my dead

I call the black angels' tears


血腥殘酷惡魔Akron,我要朝你襲擊

雖你能夠將我化灰,但我絕不畏懼

汝等邪國將被摧毀

汝之邪心將被消滅

斬首肢解任選其一

汝絕無法全身而退

回報給你的屠殺,償還對Airin的暴行

復仇Arwald的成仁,救回我哭泣的家園

我呼喚著死者的仇恨

呼喚著黑暗天使的淚珠


Also Dargor can't endure all... goes out from the cave

while the demons take the hero for their tragic game

Gods of earth save me from madness

from these rites of total shame

while descending in the red flame

Arwald dies but not in vain

They will pay for this nightmare, for the symphony of pain

For Airin, my dead friend and all my crying wasted land

I call the Tharos' fire

I call the thunder roar


當惡魔們嘻笑怒罵處死了英雄

Dargor再也無法忍受,逃出了祭壇

為了不讓光明蒙羞

神挽救了發狂的我

當Arwald落下深坑

其命已絕但非白費

惡魔必須付出代價,在這慘痛的夢魘

補償Airin、我的戰友、和我心愛的家園

我呼喚著Tharos的怒火

呼喚著雷神的怒吼


Raise your voice and ride all

ride all brave, raise your sword to the sky

and sing the epic symphony

for the mighty and proud firelord


高聲呼喊,征服恐懼

揚起勇氣,向天空舉起聖劍

唱出雄壯的史詩交響曲

彰顯神聖的力量與驕傲


Arwald's acid broke the silver chains

before his very last breath

Akron laughing really doesn't know what now waits for him...

Gods are raging leading my red steel

heads and limbs are falling down

It's in me the mystic messenger bringer of revenge

"Black angel, I call you! King Chaos is raging

in the torment of my heart...

I call the holy earthquake to end this bloody hell!"

Gods are raging leading my red steel

heads and limbs are falling down

It's in me the mystic messenger bringer of revenge

while she comes, beloved sunlight


在最後一口氣之前

Arwald破壞箝制枷鎖

Akron依舊狂笑於得意,絲毫不理危機

眾神之怒引領著我

復滿地犧牲屍首的仇

由天而降的神祕信息,帶我邁向復仇之路

「黑暗天使!我呼喚著你。

混亂之王已經盛於怒,而我也依舊痛苦萬分……

我呼喚著一場大地震,能夠撕裂這地獄」

眾神之怒引領著我

復滿地犧牲屍首的仇

由天而降的神祕信息,帶我邁向復仇之路

在黎明日光臨照之時


On the river known as Aigor

our hero found his way

All the demons desperately

search for him now but in vain

They will pay for this nightmare, for the symphony of pain

For Airin, my dead friend and all my crying wasted land

I call the Tharos' fire

I call the thunder roar


在名叫Aigor的河上

英雄找到了出口

所有無人性的惡魔

尋著他但全白費

惡魔必須付出代價,在這慘痛的夢魘

補償Airin、我的戰友、和我心愛的家園

我呼喚著Tharos的怒火

呼喚著雷神的怒吼


Raise your voice and ride all

ride all brave, raise your sword to the sky

and sing the epic symphony

for the mighty and proud firelord


高聲呼喊,征服恐懼

揚起勇氣,向天空舉起聖劍

唱出雄壯的史詩交響曲

彰顯神聖的力量與驕傲

  沒錯,親愛的朋友,雖然我並不想這麼說,但事情確實是這麼地發生了……

  當兩個英雄到達了Hargor後,他們發現他們已經無法脫身了。


  悲劇,也發生在兩位英雄身上了。在攻城的期間,他們的一切都被摧毀、消滅,剩下的只有四肢以及項上人頭,但也是傷痕累累了。


  現在,兩個英勇的戰士,唯一能做的只有毫無計劃地攻擊,然後……英勇地戰死!但是,黑暗之王並不打算就這樣讓他們成為烈士,而有著更可怕的計劃。並且我可以告訴你,那時我立刻有了不好的預感,就像是跟他們有心電感應似的。果然,他們被捉拿、被下獄、被凌虐、被拷打。幾天後,他們從昏死中醒來時,被關在一個陰暗的房間裡,鐵鍊枷鎖著他們倆,使他們動彈不得。Airin!沒錯,Airin居然就在躺他們的面前的神壇上,光著身子,只蓋著一張黑色薄紗。而Akron正握著翡翠神劍,與他的手下眾兵將,在神壇前晃動著他們狂喜的影子。……到這裡,任何一個有正義感的人,都不願去想像接下來會發生什麼事……


  不,我不想再說下去了!但是,我必須得說。因為我親愛的朋友啊,我要讓你們知道一個人可以是多麼的殘酷,多麼的褻瀆神聖。雖然,連我都不願意去承認這麼一個擁有邪惡力量、遺忘了真理的生物能稱為人。


  Arwald心愛的公主--Airin在這邪惡的地方,分別被Akron與他的眾爪牙給凌虐、給強姦。而Akron的邪惡力量正逐漸增加,在不斷的無辜者的犧牲中,逐漸地增加。


  如此的慘無人道,就連黑暗王子Dargor都看不過去,而試著要說服他的父王但一切都是枉然。這個黑暗王子的教師,也是我們頭號大敵之一的巫師Vankar,常常得安撫理想與國王Akron命令衝突的Dargor王子,當然這次也不例外。


  回到我們的故事……這個邪惡的儀式,在神壇前再次寫下了一幕悲劇。Airin望著她心愛的Arwald,嚥下了最後一口氣,然後就被強壓到具有強烈腐蝕性的液體Sgral之中,不久之後便一命嗚呼!


  請原諒我的淚已雙垂、心不由己,畢竟這對一個過了中年的男人而言,是多麼大的精神折磨。


  Arwald向上蒼祈求能釋放她的靈魂,隨即,由於他的身心都受不了如此打擊,幾乎要失去了意識。


  Akron還準備了一些餘興結目……我們的Arwald,在受盡各種折磨之後,也成了可怕的腐蝕液體下的受害者。


  就在此時,Arwald的呼喚傳到了神的耳裡,祂及時給了Arwald最後的一股助力。雖然救不了Arwald,但是Arwald藉著這股力量,舉起了已經腐蝕出白骨的手,揮濺起那浸著他的綠色液體,射向了冰之戰士身上的枷鎖,把沉重的鋼鐵溶融化,把他的朋友解放。由Arwald的生命換來了自由的冰之戰士,毫無仍何武裝,只能逃跑。他死命地向一旁流過的地下河縱身一跳,然後成功地藉著流水逃出了Hargor城的外側。接著他橫過了黑暗沼澤,越過了岩石山脈,跨過了邊境,到了獨角獸森林。他累了、餓了、激了、怒了,不過至少他安全了。但是,現在翡翠神劍已經落入了Akron的手中,他必須在絕望之前想出解救Enchanted Lands的辦法。 


  沒錯,我的朋友,我老邁的身子再也受不了了,為了告訴你這個悲慘的故事,它已經承受了太多的壓力。讓我暫且回到樹下休息,我會很快回來,把結局告訴你。我想,那將是最強烈、最戲劇性、最壯闊的一段。


  所以,在這段期間裡,用與故事中的英雄一樣的態度,藉著如雷般激烈的衝勁,對抗邪惡與不如意。如此一來,將來也會有另一個老巫師因為能夠傳頌你的故事而感到驕傲。


Forever yours
