about

Siobhan saved money for a flight to Hideon, the planet on which her first family died, and her future along with them. She is intending to put an end to the feelings of guilt and anguish that had been haunting her forever, by plunging herself into the Magmas chasm. Near the place where Brent and Trem died so long ago will she lay united in death with her loved ones forever.

lyrics

SIOBHAN
The guilt would drive me back
To a planet where I was before
Albeit a lifetime since
I still could recite the whole score:

TOUR GUIDE / SIOBHAN
"You must walk down that path
Don't fear the heat rising from deep underneath
Then enter that confined space
And step on the platform below..."

SIOBHAN
The last time that I'd been here
Seven decades ago to this day
It had been closed down back then
Now I managed to find a way in

Knelt down at the precipice
Where I buried my face in my hands
Shouldn't I have died long ago?
This misery would soon find an end

Then I rose to my feet
While my heart was pounding like mad in my chest
As tears ran down my cheeks
I spread my arms ready to fly

VOICE FROM THE PAST
"...husband and son of Dr. Siobhan Norman
...killed in a tragic accident ...on Hideon's
Magmas Observation Platform..."

SIOBHAN
Final moment of truth
Right before I jumped
A strange voice appeared
And it whispered my name
Said, "we know you well
We don't want you to die.
Know there is hope!"

And the voice said

BORON
Come with me, come with me
Come with me and you'll be free
Come with me, come with me
There's still so much to see

SIOBHAN
Slowly I turned around
To a creature with
Big round child-like eyes
And my anguish would wane
As I wondered how
It found me in this place
My darkest hour

The Boron said

BORON
Come with me, come with me.
Come with me and you'll be free
Come with me, come with me
There's still so much to see

SIOBHAN
They took me aboard their ship, the Heaven's Bridge, and from then on, everything changed, profoundly. Never again would I find myself in a place so dark that it almost crushed my soul... never again.

Oh when Heaven's Bridge
Would touch the sky
A thousand miles above
I saw the light of a new day
It set me free again

When Heaven's Bridge
Would touch the sky
I felt alive again
And all the ghosts that haunted me

Oh when Heaven's Bridge
Would touch the sky
A thousand miles above
I saw the light of a new day
It set me free again

When Heaven's Bridge
Would touch the Sky
I felt alive again
And all the ghosts that haunted me

I vowed to let them rest in peace.

I never understood the myth that Borons can read minds... until that day on Hideon. I wasn't aware that they had been following my fate so closely, and I'm still not sure whether they revived my desire for life or manipulated my mind. In any case, I'm forever grateful!
