2021
[THE TRAVELER] THIS IS THE PEAK OF MAN'S PETTY LABORS THIS IS THE BEST COMMON FOOLS CAN DO LOOK AT THE RULES THAT LIMIT THEIR SCOPE THERE IS MORE AND I'LL SHOW IT TO YOU! LOOK TO THE HEAVENS TO SEE WHAT I AM! GAZE AT THE STARS THAT HAVE SHOWN YOU THE WAY TRUST IN THE KNOWLEDGE OF LIGHT THEY PROVIDE FOR THEY'LL BE BESIDE US TILL OUR DYING DAY ALL THAT YOU NEED IS HERE IN MY EYES YOU KNOW OUR FUTURE AWAITS IN THE SUN WE'LL BLAZE A TRAIL FROM SHADOW TO LIGHT AND NOTHING CAN STOP US UNTIL WE ARE ONE! FOR WE ALL WANT LOVE! YES, WE LONG FOR MORE! ONCE LIKE YOURSELF I SET OUT TO EXPLORE! THEN I FOUND MY MORE; FATE HAD YOU IN STORE! STAY BY YOUR SIDE AND MY DEAR DOCTOR MAN, YOU WILL SOAR [JOHANN] Soar? I cannot soar here- [THE TRAVELER] You can and you will. Think of that girl! Did you not see how she looked at you? [JOHANN] She lied about who I am and- [THE TRAVELER] Yes! To keep you here, Johann. She seems quite close to that young Baron- [JOHANN] At any moment she could tell the Baron who I really am and then- [THE TRAVELER] But ask yourself, why did she lie to him for you? YOU CAN RISE TO POWER HERE TRUST IN ME AND HAVE NO FEAR TAKE HER HAND, THE PATH IS CLEAR THEN THE CROWDS WILL CHEER! [JOHANN] But what if she- [THE TRAVELER] Her admiration for you- her lust for you is strong! She'll do anything you want. She has the Baron's ear. Through her, you will have the Baron's ear. You can rebuild this crumbling town and with its power you will fight the tyranny of the Prince Archbishop and expose the lies of the entire Church! [JOHANN] Could this actually be possible? [THE TRAVELER] Oh, Johann, my dear man. Trust me and we can restore what was taken from you! [JOHANN] THIS PICTURE YOU PAINT IS ASTOUNDING HOW CAN YOU PROMISE IT'S TRUE? [THE TRAVELER] DOCTOR I GIVE YOU MY PROMISE YOUR FUTURE IS WAITING FOR YOU! I'LL BE YOUR SHIELD AND UNFALTERING SWORD TRUST IN YOUR KNOWLEDGE WITH ME AT YOUR SIDE REBUILD YOUR LIFE AND FOLLOW MY LEAD I WILL FILL YOU WITH HONOR AND PRIDE [JOHANN] So...what do I give you in return? [THE TRAVELER] Johann [JOHANN] What? [THE TRAVELER] You're so earnest. So bound by will rules. What must I do? Bargains. Agreements. Contracts. My dear, dear Johann [JOHANN] Well? [THE TRAVELER] FOLLOW ME, FOLLOW ME JOHANN COME WITH ME, COME WITH ME THROUGH THE EARTH I CAN SEE WHAT YOU'D BE IF YOU WOULD FOLLOW ME, JOHANN I'LL SHOW YOU WHO YOU HAVE BEEN SINCE BIRTH [THE TRAVELER] FOLLOW ME FOLLOW ME, JOHANN COME WITH ME I CAN SEE WHAT YOU'D BE, JOHANN I'LL SHOW YOU WHO YOU HAVE BEEN SINCE BIRTH [JOHANN] SHOULD I FOLLOW HIS LIGHT TO FORGET WHERE I AM? IS MY FATE IN THE STARS? WILL TOMORROW BEGIN? COULD THIS BE ALL I'VE EVER WANTED? A CHANCE THAT I SHOULDN'T IGNORE! THIS ROAD I AM BRAVING MAY UNLOCK THIS CRAVING? [THE TRAVELER] THINK OF WHAT I CAN RESTORE DOCTOR MAN, YOU ARE ALL I HAVE WANTED! [JOHANN] THINK OF WHAT I CAN RESTORE HE CAN GIVE ALL I HAVE WANTED! [THE TRAVELER] THINK OF WHAT A HERO YOU' BE [JOHANN] ONLY FOOLS WOULD FLEE DOCTOR, THE DARKNESS IS FADING [JOHANN] IN THIS MOMENT [BOTH] THE SUNLIGHT'S ABOUT TO BREAK FREE! AND WE ALL WANT MORE YES, WE LONG FOR MORE! MORE FOR OURSELVES THAN WE KNEW BEFORE! [THE TRAVELER] I WILL SHOW YOU MORE! [JOHANN] YOU WILL SHOW ME MORE! [BOTH] CLAIM WHAT IS OURS AND BEGIN TO EXPLORE... [THE TRAVELER] Now. Go back to that girl! [JOHANN] She frightens me [THE TRAVELER] Delicious, isn't it? [BOTH] EVEN MORE!
