When the smoke dissipates, Thomas and Lilith both lie dead upon the floor. They sacrificed themselves to save the other. The curse has been broken, a sense of relief can be felt across the Refuge, while the survivors mourn those who have passed. Although most believe that Thomas and Lilith are dead, Imelda believes in the immortality of the soul. She hopes that they both have found salvation for their selfless act. She knows that they grew in grandeur during their final hours - Thomas overcoming his fears and Lilith her feeling of isolation from those around her.
[Verse 1:]
Midnight's shriek, a Gorgon's wail
Priest's blade gleams, makes evil quail
Curse unwinds, shadows writhe and coil
Noble blood on hallowed soil
[Chorus 1:]
Martyr's trail through crypts of night
Hidden veil, damnation's blight
[Verse 2:]
Thomas bound by fate's dark snare
Spirit soars through twilight air
Last breath fades, a dying pyre
Selfless choice, salvation's fire
[Chorus 2:]
Martyr's trail through crypts of night
Hidden veil, damnation's blight
[Verse 3:]
Lilith's form in death's chill grip
Frozen tears on pallid lip
Fell so others might ascend
Noble soul at journey's end
[Chorus 3:]
Martyr's trail through crypts of night
Hidden veil, damnation's blight
[Verse 4:]
Souls entwined in limbo's dance
Purged by pain and dire chance
Not bound by passion's fleeting flame
But shared resolve to ease others' pain
[Chorus 4:]
Martyr's trail through crypts of night
Hidden veil, damnation's blight
[Bridge:]
Caught between, they dwell and roam
Unknowing breakers of hell's dome
Deeds done deep in stygian night
May spark the dark with heaven's light
[Verse 5:]
Shattered glass, a splintered sight
Each shard gleams with spectral light
Though rent by fate's unyielding hand
Their choice may save this shadowed land
[Chorus 5:]
Martyr's trail through crypts of night
Hidden veil, damnation's blight
[Verse 6:]
Imelda's dirge, a spectral song
For souls redeemed by righting wrong
Their legacy, a beacon bright
Piercing through purgatory's night
[Chorus 6:]
Martyr's trail through crypts of night
Hidden veil, damnation's blight
[Outro:]
No mortal guide in shadow's maze
Yet hope still haunts these twilight days
Their growth, a glimmer in the gloom
May yet unlock salvation's room
