■ Purpose: I've wanted to cover this for so long. I was waiting until I owned a proper mic but decided there's no use in letting that be the determining factor. I was blessed to wake up this morning, still have a voice to sing with, and my headphones still work, so why not?

■ Thoughts: I wonder if we'll ever see a DOD3 remake… It had so much potential if given more polish and time (and a tad less overly abrasive localization for Zero [unpopular opinion: go]).

I’ve been thinking back to when SE first launched the official site. I’d leave it open just to listen to the piano from “Tsukiru 3”. The way the story and characters were presented, reading through the novellas, piecing together a peculiar flower and the events leading from 3 to 1, from both to the Book of Enoch to scripture, it was nothing short of fascinating.

"These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world." John 16:33

Petal of Peace (Leaf of Chaos ➤ Drag-On Dragoon 3)

■ Purpose: another beautiful song from DOD3. I often harmonized with it as I browsed the menu but never considered recording it until now.

■ Thoughts: "Now…let us sing of the world’s end."

"And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in all the world as a witness to all the nations, and then the end will come." Matthew 24:14

Ascendus (Descendus ➤ Drag-On Dragoon 3)

■ Purpose:

Each weapon holds memories.

Myriad weapons, diverging recollections.

Were the memories within Helios to be reconstructed as a song, what would it be?

Would it be a song of hope for a flourishing mankind?

Sounds echo back to us the fact that we are indeed alive—surrounded by life.

Silence can be peaceful…but it can also reflect absence in this sense.

Five strings of song echo, counteracting the seeds of five voices of antiquity.

■ Thoughts:

“A song to encourage another, for example.  The sounds tell them they are not alone.

A song for a dying friend, for example.  The sounds bring peace for the journey ahead.

A song to represent one's resolve, for example.  The sounds give word to will so it is remembered.

Songs have power, and sound is the vessel that speaks to our hearts. This is what I believe.”
