TRACK 24: THE CHASE

CREATURE: Do you now know what it's like to thirst for vengeance, Victor Frankenstein? Then prepare for a journey that will be long and painful...
I will leave my mark on each byway and village... and you will know that you travel in my wake. Are you equal to the challenge? If so... then pursue me -- if you dare.

VICTOR: IF I MUST... TO THE ENDS OF THE EARTH

GHOSTS:

RACING AFTER SHADOWS ON SOME DISTANT ROAD
YOUR EVERY STEP IS FUELED BY RAGE
BUT IS THERE SOMETHING IN YOUR PATH THAT HAUNTS YOU?

GHOST OF WILLIAM: CAN YOU TELL ME WHY...?

GHOST OF FATHER: DO YOU EVEN KNOW WHAT YOU PURSUE?

GHOST OF JUSTINE: RACE A THOUSAND MILES

GHOSTS: STILL YOU MAY NOT FIND THE THING YOU CHASE

CREATURE: Have you the courage to venture beyond the familiar climes of Bavaria, farther into the North-land? Come! Race with the devil!

VICTOR:

AT EACH TURN HE MOCKS ME WITH A CRYPTIC AND INFURIATING CLUE
I WILL NOT GIVE UP TILL HE'S DEAD!

GHOSTS: RACING AFTER SOMETHING LOST INSIDE YOUR SOUL

GHOST OF HENRY: HAVE YOU FORGOTTEN ALL WE SHARED?
IS THERE NO LIGHT WITHIN YOUR HEART TO GUIDE YOU?

GHOSTS OF WILLIAM & JUSTINE: ARE YOU LOST & COLD?

GHOST OF FATHER: ARE WE EVER TRULY ALL ALONE?

GHOSTS: RACE A THOUSAND MILES
STILL YOU MAY NOT FIND THE THING YOU CHASE

CREATURE: Growing weary, my enemy? Our journey has barely begun. Follow me across the Baltic, even farther into the forbidding North.

VICTOR: HOW MUCH MORE CAN ONE MAN ENDURE?

GHOST OF ELIZABETH: THE ROAD MAY TWIST AND TURN

GHOST OF WILLIAM: TELL ME WHY??

GHOST OF ELIZABETH: BUT STILL YOU'VE ONE DIRECTION

GHOST OF FATHER: A YOUNG MAN IS SILENTLY CRYING IN PAIN

GHOST OF ELIZABETH: AND YOU HAVE KNOWN IT ALL ALONG

GHOST OF JUSTINE: ARE YOU INNOCENT?!

GHOST OF HENRY: WHY CAN YOU NOT SEE THE TRUTH?

GHOST OF ELIZABETH: DEAR VICTOR
    
GHOSTS:

THE ROAD MAY TWIST AND TURN
BUT STILL YOU'VE ONE DIRECTION
IT IS THE ONE YOU'VE KNOWN FOR ALL YOUR LIFE
SO NEAR AND YET SO FAR...

CREATURE: The end grows near, Frankenstein. Follow me to the ices of the Arctic. There, the battle's end awaits.

VICTOR: WHAT IS IT THAT I MUST DO TO BRING
THIS BLOODY NIGHTMARE TO AN END?

GHOSTS: YOU MUST BEAR YOUR SOLEMN DUTY

VICTOR: FROM THAT COLD AND BARREN LAND HE BECKONS ME TO
FACE HIM ONCE AGAIN

GHOSTS: ...AND ACCEPT WHAT IS YOUR OWN

VICTOR: IS IT THERE REDEMPTION IS FOUND?

GHOSTS: LOOK INSIDE YOUR HEART

VICTOR: WHAT IS IT COMPELLING ME TO FOLLOW IN EACH FOOTSTEP
HE HAS LAID?

GHOSTS: LONG AGO YOU CHOSE YOUR PATHWAY (YOUR FATE IS MADE)

VICTOR: ARE WE SOMEHOW LINKED? THE FOOL CREATOR AND THE LIFE
THAT HE HAS MADE?

GHOSTS: WE MUST ANSWER FOR OUR DEEDS (A PRICE TO PAY)

VICTOR: ECHOING INSIDE MY HEART ARE VOICES FROM THE PAST

GHOSTS: SEARCH NOW WITHIN

VICTOR: CALLING ME TO WAKEN AND REDEEM MYSELF AT LAST

GHOSTS: THERE IT BEGINS

VICTOR:AND I MUST NOT FAIL, FAST UPON HIS TRAIL
DESTINY DELIVER ME BEYOND THE ENDLESS STORM
