見よ、あれに去りゆく者たちを。
彼らは未来という責務を背負い、これよりさらなる苦難の道に挑む。我らはその背中を見送ることしか叶わぬ。
―――ああ、案ずるな。其方らにそのような試練は与えぬよ。騒ぐことなく、怖れることなく、朕と共にこの安寧の夢にて微睡もうぞ。

―――これは夢想ならざる絵画。
かつてただ独りで人理を担おうとした為政者は、
その２０００年の重責を異邦の旅人に託した。
後はただ愛すべき民と共に、安らかな結末を待つのみ。

Take a good look at the ones who are leaving.
They are shouldering the duty that is the future, and their path will lead them to confront even more treacherous challenges. Yet the only thing we can do is to see them off from afar.
Ah, but do not worry. We will not be giving you any trials like the ones they will be facing. Instead, you shall join us in a delicate slumber bereft of fear or despair over your fate.

...This is a scene of what will soon become a dream.
The ruler who once tried to shoulder humanity alone has now entrusted and tasked the heavy responsibility of 2000 years of history to a group of foreign travelers.
Now all that there is to do is to wait for the peaceful end to come, with the citizens that they loved.
