This thing here lasts 60 minutes. It tells the epic story of the city of Overlight and how it was saved by the chosen one, Isaac, from the army of the fallen.
The Dark Lord sends his army to attack the city of Overlight in order to become the king of the light world. A prophecy speaks about a young man, Isaac, who will be able to destroy the dark lord. Isaac leaves his wife Dorothea behind, and goes to the den of the Dark Lord to stop his progression. In the meantime, the general plans the murder of Dorothea in order to weaken the hero, and eventually to force him to join their circle; which he does. But when Isaac is forced to kill his father by the Dark Lord, he realizes what he's doing, and then reaches for his sword to kill the Dark Lord, and bring back the peace in Overlight.

[II. Arrival]
THE GENERAL:
Walk
My army
It is time to reclaim what is ours
The blood of our enemies will be spilled on our hands
Fear
In their hearts
As we'll walk in the holy city
The time it has come to destroy the opression
Brace overlight, here we come
People of light
Your time has come
Nothing can stop our progression now
Fear our arrival
Supremacy
It's been enough
You rule for too long it is time for a change
Fear our arrival
Fight
We will fight
And we are going to win the war
For there is no stopping the dark army of myself the dark lord
Kill, crush
Your friends, your wives and your children
No prisonners will be made, there will be only death
Brace overlight, here we come
People of light
Your time has come
Nothing can stop our progression now
Fear our arrival
Supremacy
It's been enough
You rule for too long it is time for a change
Fear our arrival
People of light
Your time has come
Nothing can stop our progression now
Fear our arrival
Supremacy
It's been enough
You rule for too long it is time for a change
Fear our arrival
[III. Hero]
ISAAC:
Father, I have come
Why have you summoned me?
THE FATHER:
Son, an evil has arrived
I put my hopes in thee
The hero of the prophecy
Is standing before me, oh
Peace thou shalt bring back to us
And light to our enemy
The hero of the prophecy
Inside thou I have seen, oh
Thy journey will be so long
But never shalt thou flee
Here, receive this
This sword belonged to me
Now go, and donnot look behind
Our hearts will go with thee
The hero of the prophecy
Is standing before me, oh
Peace thou shalt bring back to us
And light to our enemy
The hero of the prophecy
Inside thou I have seen, oh
Thy journey will be so long
But never shalt thou flee
ISAAC:
Dorothea, my love
I must now leave you,
But fear not for I shall return back
With peace and light to bring for you
Please await for me, my love
Don't you try to come with me
The idea of losing you, it would drive me crazy

[VI. Circle]
THE GENERAL:
Welcome my friends
Take a seat, hear me out
Our position
is being compromised
Overlight has sent someone
Who could be a threat
But rest assured
That he won't hurt our plan
I shall meet him
On the frontline tonight
I will make sure
that he joins us willingly
THE DARK LORD:
(The rule of Overlight has come to an end, and the fallen demand what is theirs. Our realm awaits us my friends, my army is loyal and strong. The hero of the prophecy will lose his faith will lose his soul as his love will be murdered by our own hands.)
[VII. Frontline]

[VIII. Lost]
(instrumental)
[IX. Turning]
THE GENERAL:
Well, look who comes
If it's not their hero
Overlight must
be desperate to send you
What will you do?
I took you everything now
You've got nothing left
But you can join our circle
Don't fool yourself
You can't save overlight now
Think, consider, make her death
worthwhile.
[X. Own]
(instrumental)
[XI. Cured]
ISAAC:
All those voices
In my head
Please, quiet them, please
Help
THE DARK LORD:
(Since you lost her you've lost yourself, but I found you and I saved you)
ISAAC:
(Since I lost her, I lost myself, I lost myself)
But now
You're the one who has lost!
