Anyone heard of this one? I've heard it's quite scary.

"Yet to return, the shadowed one.

Who quests for the Twilight Dragon

Rumbles the Dark Hearth

And Helba, Queen of the Dark,

has raised finally her army.

Apeiron, King of Light, beckons.

At the base of the rainbow they meet.

Against the abominable Wave,

together they fight.

Alba's lake boils.

Light's great tree doth fall

Power-- all now to droplets turned

in the temple of Arche Koeln.

Returns to nothing,

this world of shadowless ones.

Never to return, the shadowless one.

Who quests for the Twilight Dragon."

- Preface of the Epitaph of the Twilight, from the .hack//AI buster manga novel. Also seen in the beginning of the .hack//INFECTION video game when you first start anew.

...first of all, I already made a topic on this...if you would take a look at the topic titled "Holy mackerel...", you'll find the story, and maybe my opinion as well (I don't remember if I put it)...

...I will comment though on the music. The music is done by Yuki Kajiura, the same as the one who does the music for .hack. It is all really beautiful...

One more thing, though it is grammatically correct as "Petite Cossette", it is "Petit Cossette"...so although Cossette is female, the title seems to imply she's a boy...that's unintended, but it's just an example of incorrect usage of French by Japanese...^^;

Therefore the correct title is "Le Portrait de Petit Cossette" and it's Japanese title is "KOZETTO no Shouzou" meaning "The Portrait of Cossette".
