[Opening – Heavenly Dialogue / Spoken Word]
(Cold wind, distant thunder, metal vibrating, dragon breath)
[Male vocal and says]
“Princess…where are you?”
“Where are you…my princess?”
[Female Whisper (Princess) and King says]
“Where… am I…?”
“This fog… this cold…
Why can’t I remember… who I was?”
[Male Voice (Qinglong King, low and trembling with rage) and says]
“Princess… look at me.”
[Princess says]
“I’m sorry… I still don’t know your name…”
[Qinglong King says]
“You are mine. As long as I remember you… that is enough.”
[Princess says (weak, fading)]
“I only know… you mean me no harm.
That is all I can hold on to…”
[Qinglong King says(claws scraping the meteor-iron bars)]
“These chains… these cursed bars…
I will break them.
I swear it on the Nine Heavens.”
[Princess says(urgent)]
“Go! He’s coming…
You can’t win against him…Please… just go!”
[Qinglong King says(voice cracking)]
“Wait for me…”
“Remember to wait for me…” (princess)
[Spoken Whisper]
“The giant who decoded the sky is gone.
What remains… is the awakening of the celestial net.”
[Verse 1]
My spine is lightning drawn in lines,
My blood—an ancient frost that binds.
Twin-coded pain in every bone,
A mortal shell with infrared sewn.
I shun all warmth,
For molten iron stirs within.
I fear no winter,
For my womb once held a soul in ice and wind.
[Chorus – Epic & Powerful]
“Wait for me… remember me…”
A vow that shook the steel of Heaven’s keep.
The frost of ten thousand years
Melts into the fire rising from my lips.
Not a curse—
but the reins of divinity.
Not a wound—
but the seal of the Zanpu’s legacy.
When fury scorched my liver through,
I learned to turn that wrath
into patient, sacred truth.
[Bridge – Dramatic Climax]
(Massive drums, orchestral swell, dragon roar under the strings)
A dragon-shaped jade,
locking pulses that refuse to fade.
A stolen birth,
the price of this life’s solitary weight.
The Ziwei star ascends—
and when it rises,
even the prison of Nine Heavens
will bend.
[Outro – Spoken Word]
[Female vocal]
Some fates must freeze for millennia to hold.
Some truths must be unlocked in the marrow of our genes.
I am awake now…
Chang-De Emperor…
Are you?
Even a sealed fate can fracture.
