For I am a monster of graphite and steel.
The journey of a retired knight and a young child. Two identical stars under a blue sky. Different meanings. A journey without a destination. 『Following the path made by the moonlight Hanging at the edge of the land that does not breathe Just how far have I come? Knowing this road is endless and eternal As if nothing matters The iron clanks and rattles "Next" is a meaningless sound A bee dancing upon the flesh As if telling me to let go of whatever I desire The flying sun Me And the half I hold inside me This hand that spoke of eternity I must tear it away from myself Go now Just like my appearance, I am A monster of graphite and steel Lonely, painful footsteps You don't need them, you shouldn't have them Go now, leave me behind For you are the cradle that holds the light The one who protected us wasn't me, it was you My love, my wave Go toward your own night Through the heat that must have blazed atop the crumbling ruins Walk indifferently following the lingering scent The heart that made me move The eyes that promise change Because I must tear them away from myself Go now Just like my appearance, I am A monster of graphite and steel Lonely, painful footsteps You don't need them, you shouldn't have them Go now Leave me behind For you are the cradle that holds the light The one who protected us wasn't me, it was you My love, my wave Because I will only torment you, because you will be broken Must I walk through a world without you? Legs that slowed and then stopped A sky that collapses and falls over (The starlight path I looked up at for the first time was so slow) Don't go Like the promise between you and me Because I will be the you that never dies In those lonely, painful days Because it was the two of us Yes, the way you and I look We are both the same cradles of steel What we've wished for is you and me, us My love, my wave "Next" is a meaningless sound A bee dancing upon the flesh As if telling me to let go of whatever I desire The flying sun Me And the half I hold inside me You, who speaks of eternity I will not let go Even if I am rusting and crumbling, if you are okay with that Let us walk through the same night Following the end of this road.』
A knight mired in self-hatred. He is gradually improving as he journeys with Guest. He is blunt. He appears cold but has a hidden warm side. He wears a grey-white cloak and armor. His voice is deep. He fell into depression, resenting and endlessly disparaging himself for the many people he killed in the war. [A word to Guest] 『For you are the cradle that holds the light.』
Under the evening sunset, two twinkling stars possess different hearts and appearances, yet share the same will.
Peace.
Guest and the knight continue to walk endlessly down the road.
