Kid Icarus: Rise of the Shadows Trailer

(Based on the song We Will Rise by Meghan Baird from Sovereign Grace Music)

(Link to the song can be found on my profile)


The trailer opens up with a view a single tree standing in the middle of an empty field, its leaves swaying with the gentle wind. A single leaf falls from the tree as the lyrics start.

A leaf falls down from the tree of life, and is falling towards the earth

The camera focuses on the leaf, revealing that it is not a leaf, but a feather. The feather slowly decends and lands on the ground.

It silently lies on the ground, awaiting a rebirth

The feather silently lies on the ground until someone appears and picks it up. It is Pit, who stares at the feather, and then at the sky.

So it is with those who die, their souls confessing hope

Pit then starts to run away from the tree with determination on his face. As he is running, the tree slowly starts to turn grey and its movement suddenly stops.

Because he is risen, with him they will rise

Pit is now in Skyworld, watching a group of Centurions repair the rest of Palutena's temple.

As we watch right through the door, the stitches being fixed.

Pit then takes out the feather and stares at it for a moment.

The memories that stay with us, the ones that haunt our minds

Pit closes his eyes as everything around him goes dark. He then gets an intense feeling as he remembers when he was trapped in the Underworld many years ago, lying on the ground bleeding to death. The pain from the horrible memory is enough to snap him back to reality.

The road to glory lies ahead, these momentary trials

Because they have risen, with them we will rise

We will rise

Palutena is wandering around her temple with a look of worry on her face. She then looks into Pit's room and sees that he isn't in there, the only thing left behind is a single feather on his bed.

Weeping may last for an evening, but rejoicing comes with the dawn

Pit is now seen being carried by a mysterious being flying across the sky in the dark of night. He is then taken to an area hidden at the bottom of a dark cave. Pit manages to climb all the way up to the top and is shocked by what he sees.

Weeping may last for an evening, but rejoicing comes with the dawn

During the instrumental part, Pit is looking into the eyes of a woman. Tears are forming in both of their eyes. The woman lifts Pit's head up and runs her hand through his hair. They stare at each other for a long moment, and then embrace.

The scene changes to where we now see Pit standing on top of a cliff. Behind him are what look to be a group of angels. In front of them is a strange shadowy figure, the only thing visible being its glowing red eyes. Surrounding it are several strange shadow creatures, all preparing to attack the angels.

For all the wonders they will do, imagination's blind

What has been made will bring anew, in the twinkling of an eye

The dark itself will be destroyed, swallowed up by light

Because they have risen, with them we will rise

Pit raises his bow in the air, and the angels from behind him begin to attack the figure's army.

We will rise~

Pit and the dark figure are locked in an intense fight to the finish. Pit is flying with his bow and strangely enough, his wings aren't glowing. The figure fires two orbs of dark energy at Pit, who manages to dodge both of them. The two then prepare to clash as the screen suddenly fades to white.

With them we will rise~

We will rise

Because they have risen, we will rise with them

The trailer ends as Pit is staring at the sunset from Skyworld. He then flies away as a single feather falls to the ground.

With them we will rise~

We will rise
