[Four great tragedies sink beneath the waves]
[As the child of sin is saved by love.]

[While another opens its eyes to the light of hope.]
[Last Memories appeased!]

[Objective Completed: End the Death Dream!]
[1000 exp gained.]
[Accumulated exp: 4500/5000.]
[Current Level: 7.]
[Dream Coins acquired: 200.]
