Disclaimer: Xenogears is not mine. If it were, Citan would not be married. Or, at least he would be married to a person in the cast who is not Yui. Hmm, I wonder who...

Doubt

Can this be permitted?
This darkness of the soul
which threatens to consume all life
which has over us all control?

No question but that it can.
It is, after all.
All we were fighting has its origin
in this over-arching darkness
in this hunger to consume

Can it be stopped?
This is the question which drives us,
this is the only goal we may pursue,
and to which we have devoted everything

Did not the darkness itself
begin in such impassioned search?
This is the question which haunts me,
the unspoken echo behind my every word...
