🌙The Silent Summit | Sacred Dark Fantasy Opera ⚔️Lunaris : Covenant of the Night Goddess⚔️ ✨Chapter : The Silent Summit✨ 🌙Lyrics🌙 Silentium regnat. (Silence reigns.) Silentium regnat. The path is ice and cloud. The card runs cold, not warm. This one does not call out. This one tried to disappear. And every step, another climbing. Gold in one hand. Steel in the other. (Crowd) Give us the words, old man! (Crowd) We have gold enough! (Crowd) We have swords enough! Not one of them climbed to see him. Silentium regnat. So this is the second cage. Not iron. Not a crown. A man whose every word is treasure — and a curse. "You come for wisdom too. Name it. A strategy. A secret. Ask — and I refuse you, as I refuse them all. Then go." I did not climb for wisdom. I climbed to set you free. I know about Westaria. I know the seven years. I know the ten thousand. (Crowd) Give us the words, old man! (Crowd) We have gold enough! And the wall that learned not to feel cracked open. For the first time in years the silent man wants to speak. Silentium regnat. But down the ridge, new figures climb. Dark robes. No sound at all. They did not come for words. They came to close the road. Anima dormit. (The soul sleeps.) Luna videt. (The moon sees.) 🌙Meaning & Story🌙 Everyone Climbed to Take. The road to the hermit's peak is ice and cloud, and the card in Liria's chest runs colder the higher she goes — this arcana does not call out to her like the others did. This one has spent years trying to stop existing. She is not alone on the path: generals, kings, and men with gold in one hand and steel in the other are climbing the same mountain, and one of them warns her off with a hand on his sword — three months of travel to buy or force a strategy for conquering the northern kingdom. By the time she reaches the stone terrace below the summit she understands what she is looking at. Dozens of seekers are camped around a stone hut, quarrelling with each other, rushing the door and being turned back each time by a snowstorm that rises to defend it. And at the door stands a thin old man with white hair and eyes made of knowledge and grief in equal measure, watching them with a face like a wall that has taught itself not to feel anything. This is the second cage of the journey — not iron, not a crown, but a man whose every sentence is treasure to everyone and a curse to himself, who fled the world because the world could only see his knowledge as a weapon. Not one person on that mountain climbed it to see him. When his eyes find Liria, something in the wall gives, because she is looking at him and not past him. He offers her the same refusal he has given everyone. She answers that she did not come for wisdom at all — and then names Westaria, and the seven years, and the ten thousand. For the first time in years the man who chose silence wants to speak. And behind her, down the ridge, new figures are climbing in dark robes, moving without any sound at all, spreading out to close the only road down. 🌙If this song touches your heart, don't forget to hit Subscribe 🎶 🎧 ​   / @inorisakibgm   🎧   / inorisakibgm   🎧 Soundcloud   / inorisaki-bgm   🎧 SoundOn soundon.global/bio/inorisakibgm 🟢 https://www.soundon.global/bio/inoris... 🟢 Spotify https://open.spotify.com/user/31mm5tk... 🌙Music & Visuals & Animation by InoriSaki BGM #DarkFantasyMusic #DarkFantasyOpera #InoriSaki #CinematicSoundtrack #TheHermitArcana #SacredChoral #GothicOpera #ChoralMusic #FantasyOST #FemaleVocal
