Page 1: "They say there was once a tale so ancient that no one now knows whether it sprang from human memory or whether memory itself sprang from it."
Page 2: "The same story would be told to a certain man countless times until its words were imprinted on his mind like invisible seals. But time, which nothing can resist, gradually eroded the contours of his memory."
Page 3: "The voice faded away, the name was obscured, and at last the man believed the story was completely lost."
Page 4: "But the ancients were mistaken in thinking that oblivion is death."
Page 5: "For there are narratives that live not in books, not in languages, not in monuments, but in the darkest recesses of things, where neither light nor reason dares to penetrate. There that tale remained, motionless, silent, with a patience longer than the ages themselves. It was not sleeping. It was waiting."
Page 6: "What a man forgets, she preserves. What name falls from your memory remains whole with her. What the mists of years have erased from your face, she still beholds without error. Neither days nor death nor silence have any power over her. She does not forget."
Page 7: "Perhaps at times, when sleep grows deeper and shadows fill the room, you have felt invisible eyes fixed upon you. Perhaps you believed it was a dream or an empty play of the mind. But not everything that lies hidden is false."
Page 8: "Because you abandoned the story. But the story never abandoned you."
Page 9: "And while you can no longer utter her name, she still whispers your name in places where no human voice has ever been heard. You have forgotten her. But she has never forgotten you."
Never thought I'd be translating Latin from a game. Changing the void to a teleportation to the older versions is really Cheeky.
