1 - Eye of the Storm, Bullet for My Valentine
Rip this world to pieces
Bid farewell to all you know
Go!!!
When most people saw Firion, they knew that he was fairly mature for his age, battle and everything that had happened during the Rebellion had hardened him, aged him far past his mere eighteen years of life. But it was especially when you caught him in battle that it began to shine through, calling upon tactics and abilities that most his age would never dream of, let alone utilize.
Did the heaven just open and fall?
We are caught in the eye of a storm
All that’s left are just bodies to mourn
He stood there after a particularly nasty skirmish, taking deep breaths as he shut his eyes. This was had to end, no more innocent lives needed to be lost, and they wouldn't. Not if he could help it. If he had to be the storm that brought about destruction in order to bring about a peaceful calm, so be it.
He was willing to bear that burden.
2 - Rusty Moon, Hypnogaja
The stars don't shine like they did once before
Hidden truths can't be denied
As a rusty moon fills the sky
But it's alright
It was his turn to keep watch that night, and Firion eventually found himself leaning against a tree trunk, gaze turned upward. It had been a week since they had been given permission to join in the Rebellion, and he was more than eager to try and keep in the Princess's good graces so that he, Maria, and Guy could continue their search for Leon while fighting alongside the rebels.
The moon was hanging low over the treetops, shedding its pale light on the forest and the surrounding area. Firion stood, adjusting his weapons and his cloak as he looked at the pale orb in the sky, nodding once.
They were going to make it.
Turns dark and cold
We'll still get by
When it gets too dark
To find our way home
It's alright, we've still got light
3 - The Resistance, Anberlin
Be the first to take us down
But your teeth are worn
And there’s no stopping us now
You got to be mental
Your speeches are maligned
Take down this molotov of words
penned with you in mind
(Speak!) Speak for yourself
You paper tigers
You crash where you stand
You've got a riot on your hands
(Speak!) Speak for yourself
You paper tigers
Too late to meet demands
When you've got a riot on your hands
Firion's eyes narrowed as the group faced off against the Emperor, weapons at the ready. This was it. The battle that would prove once for and all that they were willing to do whatever it took to stop his ambitions. He was insane - wanting to take over not only the known living world, but the realms of the dead as well? The fact that he had been killed once only to come back with a demonic contract no less... was incredibly unsettling, to say the least.
But they were ready, prepared for the battle that lay ahead, no matter how difficult it would be.
They had something he didn't - they were united, in their convictions and in their motivations. And with that, they wouldn't lose, they couldn't lose.
4 - Forgiven, Relient K
To see that you've been aptly damned
To fail and fail again
Cause we're all guilty of the same things
We think the thoughts whether or not we see them through
And I know that I have been forgiven
And I just hope you can forgive me too
As much as he wanted to bring an end to the conflict, that didn't mean that Firion liked the means to get to the ends.
But there were moments, small moments and "thank yous" that made it all the more worthwhile. When he was stopped by a small child while passing through Fynn, he was confused at first, only to give a small, compassionate smile as he held out a single rose.
"This is for you, mister! I heard you really like these!"
It's moments like this that he realizes that even what seems like the greatest sin can possibly be forgiven.
5 - Ash Like Snow, The Brilliant Green
Even if this earth disintegrates,
I won't ever forget:
That tiny wish,
It will guide us to our ideal place.
There I come for you yeah
Ash Like Snow
Is falling down from your sky
Ash Like Snow
Let me hear why I have to fight
Everyone's wishes were guiding them, the sacrifices that every had made in order to bring about peace and end the conflict once and for all. Firion closed his eyes, smiling peacefully despite the fact that he and the others were standing in a graveyard, standing in front of the markers of those that had died in order to end this conflict. Their bodies might have been elsewhere, but their hearts, their souls - were in Fynn, and their respective homes.
And through that, he found purpose, outside of getting revenge for what he had lost, a greater purpose, if you will.
