The Awakened Hero

A world once protected by a hero, now illuminated by a gray sun.
Since the previous work, time has advanced dramatically-scientific civilization has flourished, and people enjoy lives of great material abundance.
Yet somewhere along the way, something essential has quietly been lost.

Children, whose hearts remain free from fixed ideas and rigid conventions, do not see romantic tales as mere fairy stories.
When one looks at the world with honest eyes, remnants scattered throughout the land suggest that these ancient stories were once undeniable truths.

This track hints at threats that blind adults can no longer perceive or confront, while portraying the gradual transformation of human consciousness across eras.
The connection between the previous release and this one, along with the shifts in awareness depicted throughout the story, also reflects aspects of modern Japanese history woven subtly into the narrative.
