Narrator:
The West and the East were waging war...
Draco, the West's great hero, thinks of his love, Maria.
Is she safe? Is she waiting...?
Draco:
Oh Maria!
Oh Maria!
How I long to be with you!
Narrator:
The forces of the West fell, and Maria's castle was taken.
Prince Ralse, of the East, took her hand by force.
But she never stopped yearning for Draco...
. . .
Maria:
Oh my hero, so far away now.
Will I ever see your smile?
Love goes away, like night into day.
It's just a fading dream.
I'm the darkness, you're the stars.
Our love is brighter than the sun.
For eternity, for me there can be,
Only you, my chosen one...
Must I forget you? Our solemn promise?
Will autumn take the place of spring?
What shall I do? I'm lost without you.
Speak to me once more!
Vision of Draco:
Come, Maria. Follow my lead.
[Maria dances with the vision of Draco for a few turns.]
Vision of Draco:
Ha ha ha ha......
[The vision fades, leaving behind a (real) bouquet of flowers. Maria takes the bouquet and walks up to the balcony, where she tosses the flowers into the night sky.]
Maria:
We must part now, my life goes on.
But my heart won't give you up.
Ere I walk away, let me hear you say
I meant as much to you....
So gently, you touched my heart.
I will be forever yours.
Come what may, I won't age a day,
I'll wait for you, always...
[A Minister from the former Western country approaches Maria.]
Minister:
Prince Ralse is looking for a dance partner.
Leave the past behind.
Our kingdom is adopting the spirit of the East.
[Maria follows the Minister down off the balcony and inside.]
. . .
[Maria is dancing with Ralse amid other couples. Suddenly, a Messenger rushes in.]
Messenger:
The survivors of the West attack!
Ralse:
Impossible!
Soldiers:
Attack!!
[A battle ensues on the dance floor.]
Voice:
Wait!!
[Draco rides out into the fray.]
Draco:
Maria!
Maria:
Draco, I've waited so long.
I knew you'd come.
Ralse:
Maria will finally have to become my queen!
Draco:
For the rest of my life, I'll keep you near...
Ralse:
It's a duel!
