“Thank you for all you've done, friend.”^[1]

“Now… leave the rest to me.”

On the fragrant shores of the west wind where flowers bloom,
I picked one without thought,
and turned to glance behind me.

Let me uncover,
the missing chapters…
in this long chronicle of Amphoreus.

I see you, Amphoreus.
You are so beautiful…
Like a tragic tale that stands apart from the rest.

I wish… for you to be illuminated by the mirror of memories,
so that the cosmos can see this ray of light
and bring a pause to the endless loops.

I see you, friend.
Do you remember this corridor of memory?
It is where we first met.

I wish to gift you a magic pen,
to strike the notes of fate,
and to guard you as you wander this world.

I see you, Cyrene.
Concerned about the truth Lygus unveiled?
I trust you to face it with courage and make the right choice.

I long to entrust you… with all that remains of my strength.
Use it to journey back through time,
and share in the Flame-Chase Journey.

Ah, I'm so tired…
I can barely keep my eyes open.

It would be great to find a place
where I can lie down and sleep until tomorrow.

By the way, Cyrene,
I remember you once spoke of a place…
Soft and full of color,
a peaceful, beautiful place that felt like home.

But, where is it?

So, this is the place.
Without my realizing it, the flower I picked from the end of the west wind
has become a seed.

No matter… Will you let me make one last wish?

I can't see you, Membrance Maze.
So I wish…
Please, grow out from this tiny seed.

The seed will grow and grow,
until it becomes a great tree, crowned with a thousand flowers.

It hums do-re-mi-fa-sol-la-ti,
waiting for a fairy maiden to arrive
and write her very first story.

“You shall fade when the flowers bloom, for ever ending begets a beginning.”

This book is dedicated to you,
my friend.

Open it.
I'll be waiting for you in the past.

When the time comes, whisper my name,
and all that she has ever meant.

Cyrene,^[2]
ripples of past reverie.
Hold me in your heart with love.^[3]/I hold you in my heart with love.^[4]

Then,
With an unforgettable verse,
You walk toward your tomorrow./I walk toward my tomorrow.
