I. THE LANCE - Elfriede 【 Lyrics 】 Into the farthest reaches of depth Flashes of distant memories Looking back, the wishes we had Slowly turn into huge mistakes These withered flowers freeze like ice They seek the warmth of burning flames Even this mighty sword is tarnished with rust Twisted radiance, now it’s lost here Oh, fall into, fall into endless darkness Swayed by the hands of destiny The light fades away Knowing naught, we just wander Drifting relentlessly out of sight Unraveling life’s intricate path Tragic destiny waiting Peaceful breeze and sweet melodies Now remain, a fragment in time When thunderous cries call out in pain Just begging for the rain Forgotten voices sing soft, delicate pleas As they’re piercing into the soul Far, far away, far away into madness Everything has no eternity Abandon the pain Letting go for the better Patiently waiting to end in vain These tainted fingertips clasping tight Praying for a conclusion Yet brace myself for what’s to come For this tragedy knows no end Embracing the mistakes these hands brought forth As I wait here for you Only your hands alone, the power to mend Let this horror come to an end I wanna fly, wanna fly away from here Soaring so high, out of boundaries I plead and I hope you’ll accept this last farewell I don’t need pity, just let me go As I say goodbye Don’t hesitate, say goodbye

[@Teddygal30Plays]

I love how you can subtly hear the laments of the other Witches of Qlipha. A fitting ode to wrap up this first year, so beautiful...❤️ Happy anniversary MementoMori!

[@13rageman65]

I love how there are verses that detail the other witches of qlipha.

[@seven8067]

The fact that this has bites and pieces of all of the witches of Qlipha, makes it so beautiful. This is possibly one of the most beautiful Mori songs

[@Absolute__Zero]

I swear MM has some of the best character designs 🧎‍♂️

[@rainfloor2919]

I legit love the art style and coloring

I swear, this is a music company rather than a game company. Every music produced so far has been phenomenal. Some of my favorites are: Parhelic Circle, The Thunder, Never Ends, The Ice, The Fire, and then this song.

[@thanhhieule9012]

Mine are Parhelic Circle, The Thunder, Flag(Flo), Twilight(Iris), Summer Flash(Moddey) and Lost(Chiffon)

[@YurikoKayla]

[@prezentoappr1171]

Disguised as a gacha game I said jokingly xD

[@prezentoappr1171]

If only hoyo vanguard and other indies collab, that would be great

[@ChayosDimension]

It's harder and harder to find who is the singer in MementoMori Eng version for each song. and I still don't understand why they don't tell us. just 1 line in description.

[@bpinred]

The only reason I can imagine BOI has for not sharing the English vocalists is that the game's dub might not be a union project. If not, and if the singers are in a union, then they'll have to use pseudonyms or not be credited at all. With that said, this is only speculation and I'm not sure if there are any differences in laws pertaining to Japanese mobile games and English speaking talent based in other countries that would cause BOI to not credit its singers.

[@prezentoappr1171]

Aliases are nothing new in vndb and indie works of Japanese stuffs, idk why like this tho. Boi is a sub branch of cygames

[@itshellaray]

I do wish they put out an English language version of her special MV they uploaded on their Japanese channel. The monologue really adds a lot of emotion to the music and vocals. Happy anniversary!🎉🎉

[@bethroth7623]

If I’m remembering what I’ve read in the game right and from looking at the image, it almost looks like the pope of the church is going to be the first witch. There’s mention of her wielding a red lance that is also a holy relic, and from Loki’s lore it’s said she changed massively from before and after she became pope, maybe that’s when she became a witch?

[@ZZZZZZ-ex4pd]

spoiler: no

[@prezentoappr1171]

Loki lore moment

[@prezentoappr1171]

​@@ZZZZZZ-ex4pdwhere do you know all of the lore? I know Jessica from reading memories yt videos but idk who that is?

[@twbp8298]

She’s probably already a witch (or beyond a witch) since she is the one to grant the witch power to other girls we see in the game. If you watch her special version MV, it is implied that when she became pope, she was filled with so much egotism with the idea that only she is capable of saving the world, that corrupted her heart. The devil jump on this opportunity to control her, and maybe then explain the sudden massive change in demeanor bc she is being controlled.

[@prezentoappr1171]

Hm turns out whalers got the opportunity to read main quest map story sadge that's great

[@limratanak1716]

We have been together for a year, from the first second until now. so let's continue being together from now on to infinity. May all the witches find happiness.

[@MothROL]

I can't believe it, they went all out and got the actress for Hu Tao for her.

[@lxnaisherself]

WAIT THEY DID?!

@@lxnaisherself ye, I spent like 3 hours to figure why her english voice sounded so familiar then it hit me she wants to sell me a coffin

MM players are a different breed ngl. As a non player i sometimes dip in and out of this yt channel just to listen to whatever the game came out, still good everytime

and at around 4:00 there’s lunalynn’s !! the swan lake theme :3 (there are also more themes im recognizing, but i’d have to go through and listen to other laments to pin down where they’re from)

[@jasonarigoni372]

this is the most beautiful character illustration/live2d i have ever seen in gacha

[@doomy_doomy2225]

[@lxnaisherself]

WOAHHHHHH ELFRIEDE IS SO PRETTY

[@deathfairy9983]

I know from the Special MV that came before this, that she was technically 'Innocent' but for all the pain and suffering she brought upon their world especially to the other witches, I just wanted a perfect ending for her. Like a real ending and not just "You are now free from the devil's influence, so apologize to everyone and so everyone can live happily ever after" Edit : And.... Just as I feared, she was forgiven. Thanks to a curse called "Atonement" she was able to walk free without the trials or punishment she deserved.

[@shockwaveexp3465]

Another reason why this game should have a story. I guess you could say you “purified” her after invoking her. There’s no sound reason for any of the witches to forgive her or to imply so. Many of them looked up to her only to be betrayed and/or turned into a witch just for being at the wrong time and place. This has potential to be a story instead unlocking all of the witches’ memories to piece everything together up to the point they meet you, the Duke.

[@KobeEscalante]

The leitmotif already hints at this, but in her story she does recognize that the only redemption she has is death.

[@twbp8298]

I think she as of now already accepts death like it’s her only escape.

[@Hyuse0711]

My soul is shaking listing to this song. It’s just so powerful.

[@残雪飘零]

This version doesn’t have the soft and gentle feel of the japanese version, but it does have a perseverance feeling, I like it!

[@Someone-lw2dh]

Wish they had a spotify😭

[@wachumeqimeqi]

ikr, that's why im thinking of youtube premium for youtube music.

[@takivera]

i dont play this game too much but im glad i made an account for it on launch the songs and character designs are what bring me back again and again

[@Smilesrck]

I whaled a ton on release and realized this is a without just a money race for the "gameplay" so I quit. However I want to say Ive been following the music releases and can only say keep up the good work! I really do wonder sometimes if you yall wouldve worked out as just a music group/label

[한글번역] (맘대로 했음) 아득히 깊은 먼 곳 먼 기억들의 빛 돌이켜보면, 저희가 가진 소원들은 점차 거대한 과오로 변해가네요 시들어버린 꽃들은 얼음처럼 얼어버리고 타오르는 불꽃에 타들어가며 이 강력한 칼도 녹슨 빛으로 물들어 사라져 가네요 아, 저 멀리, 저멀리 끝없는 어둠 속으로 운명의 손에 휘둘려 점점 사그라드는 빛 우린 아무것도 모른 채 아무것도 보이지 않는 곳에서 떠돌아 다녀요 삶의 비밀은 복잡한 길이 기다린 비극적인 운명 평화로운 바람, 달콤한 맬로디 우리에게 주어진 시간의 단편이네요 벼락 속에서 울러퍼지는 고통과 애원하는 빗속에서 잊혀져가던 작고 연약한 노랫소리는 영혼을 파고들어요 아, 저 멀리, 저멀리 광란 속으로 모두 이제 영원히 없어져 고통 마저 포기하고 더 나은 것을 위해 헛되이 끝나기를 기다려요 더러워진 손을 움켜쥐며 이 끝을 기도합니다 앞으로 일어날 일에 마음을 다잡아요 이 비극엔 끝이 없기 때문입니다 이 손들이 가져온 과오들을 받아들이면서 그대를 기다릴게요 오직 그대의 손만이 바꿀 수 있는 힘 어서 이 공포를 끝내주세요 날아올라, 날아올라 저 멀리 날아올라 저높이 경계까지 건네는 작별인사 부디 받아주시길 실망시켜 미안해요 이제 안녕히 이별을 주저하지 마세요
