Сцена 1.
In a secret part of the residence, in a circle of white candles Johanna is sitting with the dagger in front of her. In silence she gazes at it. Mare and Agnes are slowly walking around the circle of light, holding personal belongings of Seth and Helena. Johanna is singing in praise of God. Agnes joins. Johanna asks for the dagger, for strength and guidance. Seth enters the room. He expresses that he knows what is going on. Agnes asks him what he actually knows... Seth describes himself as the great leader that no one can defeat. Johanna argues that time has come... Helena enters the room. Seth offers feedback on her arrival. Helena appeals for reconciliation while Agnes is urging her to join their side. Johanna says she has to fulfil her mission... Helena then expresses absolute despair and asks to be handed the dagger, reluctantly Johanna does this. Seth asks his beloved to come to him. Helena responds that she is about to do what she must do. Seth offers an invitation, seemingly without fear. Helena puts the dagger against the chest of Seth and utters a few last words of forgiveness. Johanna and Agnes appeal to her to complete the action. Helena, who cannot endure her inhumane loyalty, struggles, turns the dagger around and runs it into her own chest. She falls to the floor. Johanna, Mare, Agnes and Seth speak to the dying Helena who passes away in the arms of Seth on the floor. Agnes says a prayer over Helena. Johanna, Mare and Seth are talking to the dead. Agnes and Seth utter words of grief. The shock and the turmoil of the emotional state means that everything beyond the tragedy of Helena appears indifferent. The spiritual war is stopped at this moment. Seth approaches Johanna and hands over the dagger with a message that it belongs to her... Then Seth carries his beloved out while celebrating her in the company of a choir of angels...
В потайной части резиденции в круге белых свечей сидит Джоанна, напротив нее лежит кинжал. Она безмолвно смотрит на него. Мара и Агнесса медленно идут вокруг свечей, держа вещи Сети и Елены. Джоанна пением славит Бога. Агнесса присоединяется. Джоанна просит у кинжала силу и наставлений. Сет входит в комнату. Он говорит, что знает обо всем происходящем. Агнесса спрашивает, что именно он знает... Сет описывает себя как самого великого и непобедимого правителя. Джоанна оспаривает это, говоря, что его дни сочтены... Елена входит в комнату. Сет реагирует на ее присутствие. Елена просит о примирении, в то время как Агнесса побуждает ее присоединиться к ним. Джоанна говорит, что должна выполнить свою миссию... Елена впадает в отчаяние и просит кинжал,
[JOHANNA:]
In thy grace...
[ДЖОАННА:]
[JOHANNA & AGNES:]
...turn to me and bless the soul of this faithful child.
[ДЖОАННА И АГНЕССА:]
None more divine than thee our lord!
...и обрати свой лик ко мне, и благослови душу этого преданного тебе дитя.
[JOHANNA:]
Lead me on to be strong –
[ДЖОАННА:]
holy mission – and guide my hand. Amen!
Веди меня, чтобы я была сильной, –
[SETH:]
Now face thy foe!
[СЕТ:]
[AGNES:]
Our lord has brought you here.
[АГНЕССА:]
[SETH:]
I heed no call, none but my own.
[СЕТ:]
[AGNES:]
To be boastful suits no mortal man.
[АГНЕССА:]
[SETH:]
Join the night supreme!
[СЕТ:]
I will be your guiding star.
Присоединитесь в последнюю ночь!
I will set you free!
Я буду вашей путеводной звездой.
[JOHANNA:]
Into the darkness forever you must go!
[ДЖОАННА:]
[HELENA:]
Still the dawn may rise and shine...
[ЕЛЕНА:]
[SETH:]
Out of the darkness, my love,
[СЕТ:]
I knew that you would come...
Вовремя, моя любимая,
[AGNES:]
Join with us! Join with God!
[АГНЕССА:]
[HELENA:]
It must not end, not like this, if we conjoin as one.
[ЕЛЕНА:]
[SETH:]
Join the night supreme!
[СЕТ:]
I will be your guiding star.
Присоединитесь в последнюю ночь!
I will set you free!
Я буду вашей путеводной звездой.
[JOHANNA:]
Into the darkness forever you must go!
[ДЖОАННА:]
Fallen you are, fallen from the heavens to our world.
Навеки во тьме ты должен сгинуть!
Fallen you are till the end of our time and beyond.
Ты пал, пал с небес в наш мир.
[HELENA:]
Sister, o blood of mine,
[ЕЛЕНА:]
hand me the dagger, hand me the answer,
Сестра, о кровь моя родная,
hand me the voice of God!
Дай мне кинжал, дай мне ответ,
[SETH:]
Come to me, to the fallen, my love...
[СЕТ:]
[HELENA:]
Deep down somewhere, in me I knew – what I had to do.
[ЕЛЕНА:]
[SETH:]
Come to me, to the fallen, my love...
[СЕТ:]
[HELENA:]
My love..., forgive me...
[ЕЛЕНА:]
[JOHANNA & AGNES:]
Hear the whisper within you sister,
[ДЖОАННА И АГНЕССА:]
from God and may peace come to your heart.
Услышь шепот, сестра,
[JOHANNA, MARE, AGNES & SETH:]
In the cloak of night, fallen you are.
[ДЖОАННА, МАРА, АГНЕССА И СЕТ:]
Thou shall rise again, enter the void.
Под ночным покровом ты пала.
[AGNES:]
In stillness keep eyes of gold your name.
[АГНЕССА:]
Nightbirds take flight and sing.
Неподвижны твои глаза драгоценные.
[JOHANNA, MARE & SETH:]
In the cloak of night, fallen you are.
[ДЖОАННА, МАРА И СЕТ:]
Thou shall rise again, enter the void.
Под ночным покровом ты пала.
[AGNES & SETH:]
Bless you into moonlight and the temple you shall now
[АГНЕССА И СЕТ:]
meet in turmoil – the soul will flow and shine.
Да благословит тебя лунный свет, теперь ты в храм
[SETH:]
Give me your hand, receive this tool for it belongs to you.
[СЕТ:]
[CHOIR OF ANGELS:]
Float, float with time, and the night soon shall see you,
[ХОР АНГЕЛОВ:]
greet you, tell you..., of dawn...
Плыви, плыви со временем и вскоре встретишься с ночью,
