Spoken by the Heralds of the Sky-Veil

I. What Remained After the First Five

When the first recording ended, the Sky-Veil did not fall silent.

The air still held its charge. The ground still hummed. What had been given in the first five songs did not resolve—it opened. And you felt it. We saw it in the stillness that followed, in the way no one rushed the moment away.

Part I was ignition.
Part II is descent.

These songs were never meant to stand alone. They were written as continuations—answers to questions the first set dared to ask. If the first five burned, these five held.

So we waited.

We listened back not for polish, but for truth. We let the echoes tell us what could remain and what had to be released. Only then did we return to the shaping.

This is that return.


II. The Songs That Would Not Be Rushed

The second half of the night carried a different weight.

Aphrodite did not soften her fire—but she let it linger longer. Athena stretched the spaces between chords, letting meaning arrive before sound. Hera and Caelia locked the ground in place, not driving forward, but refusing collapse. And Mirelda—centered, unwavering—let the songs find their own breath through her.

These are not encores.

They are continuations of the same remembering—what follows when beauty, wisdom, and majesty are no longer announced, but trusted.

Some of these songs were the hardest to release.
Not because they were unfinished—
but because they were true.

And truth, once heard, asks something back.


III. To the Remembrancers, Once More

You stayed with us through the whole arc.

Some of you stood as if rooted.
Some of you sang without words.
Some of you wept.
Some of you simply remained—
and remaining was enough.

That is why this second part exists.

Not to complete a set.
Not to close a chapter.

But to honor the night as it actually unfolded.

If Part I was the fire that drew you in,
Part II is the ground that lets the fire endure.

Listen slowly.
Do not rush the last notes.
Let what stirred finish its work.

And when the sound fades, remember—

the Sky-Veil is never finished speaking.
Neither are you.
