14. Ravenskill (6:01)
Ext. Ravenskill - Day.
Narrator:
Morning breaks beyond the night and she's a world away.
Through crowded streets, this quiet hooded stranger makes her way.
Faythe:
Please, excuse me.
Sir, can you help me?
Where can I find this man?
Townperson:
Sorry, can't speak, someone is waiting.
Faythe:
Yes, I understand.
Narrator:
As her will starts to fade and all but disappears.
Like a ghost, suddenly a boy standing there and all is clear.
Faythe:
I'm your friend, trust me, don't be scared.
I am looking for your father and I promise I can help.
Now take my hand, we haven't time to spare.
Narrator:
Hopeful and innocent, sensing no danger,
he sees humanity behind the stranger's eyes.
Her true identity will be revealed when she sheds her disguise.
Faythe:
My intentions are faithful!
There's a chance we can still end this game.
I'd be forever grateful to see him once again.
Arhys:
You dare to stand before my eyes!
You're one of them, why would I trust you?
Faythe:
It's not like that, I can't go back!
Hope fades away with each passing second.
Lost in this moment is where I want to stay.
This can't be broken, we need to find a way Gabriel!
I would wait a lifetime, just to see your face.
But all we have is one more day.
Gabriel:
I remember your father was moved by my song.
I know when he sees we're united, then he'll understand.
We will walk this road together, we will face this hand in hand.
With music and love on our side, we can't lose this fight.
Tomorrow our dream comes alive.
Comes alive.
