Black Records/Twilight Begins

<tabber>English=Twilight Begins - Year 1206Between flame and earth...The wavering darkness begins to spin the tale of the end.First, the conflict of the great gods of the second pillar.Second, the fusion of earth and flame, and the completion of the seven vessels.Third, the beginning of the thousand-year city and the acceptance of the Gral.Fourth, the disappearance of the Holy Beast and the catastrophe of the whispering dragons.Fifth, the recapture of the capital and the vermillion curse.Sixth, the lions' war and the sacrifice of the holy maiden.Seventh, the appearance of the giant pillar in the north and the unwanted child.Eighth, the sacrifice of the village and the hundred days campaign.Ninth, the great blue tree to the east and the appearance of the cursed castle.Thus, the thousand year old wish was fulfilled.When the sacrifice is made and the ancient blood flows, the path to the Gral of Erebos shall open.When the tainted Holy Beast is pierced by the blade of world's end and its blood fills the Gral, the Great Twilight shall fall upon the land.

焔と大地の狭間―—
う闇にて終末の物語は始まらん。
一つは、二柱の巨神たちの相克。 
二つは、焔と大地の融合と、七の器の完成。 
三つは、千年の都のと星杯の受け容れ。 
四つは、聖獣の消失と昏き竜の災厄。
五つは、帝都奪還と緋が受けし呪い。
六つは、獅子たちの戦乱と聖女の犠牲。
七つは、北に顕れたる巨柱と忌み子。
八つは、贄となりしと百日の外征。
九つは、東の碧き大樹と煌魔の城の顕現。
くして千年に及ぶ悲願は成就せり。
贄により古の血が流されし刻、
《黒キ星杯》への道が開かれん。
穢れし聖獣が終末の剣に貫かれ、
その血が星杯を充たす刻・・・ 
ー《巨イナル黄昏》は始まらん。 </tabber>
