un: vogel | German text Around Fragment

[insinning]

Has anyone else been finding pieces of German text around Fragment?

I can help with translating them if you need it. I don't know if I'm the best at it but these haven't been too hard... [So says the actual fluent German speaker]

This is what has been found so far:

[From Akatsuki's findings]
Unknown where the Cursed Wave was born…
After the stars doth cross the heavens,
The sky in the East doth darken and air doth fill with mourning.
From the chosen land beyond the forest, a sign of the wave comes.

[From Winter's transcription of the music in the Holy Forbidden Church]

The shadowed man on the quest for the Twilight dragon. The shadowed man will not come back here in search of the Twilight dragon.

[From Lumina Cloth, up in a high building that Oriade and Vogel were investigating while flying]

Riding the wake is ██████, the Shadow of Death, to drown all that stands.
Mirage of Deceit, █████, Betray all with the flawed image, and did aid the Wave.
And by the Power of █████, a drop from the Wave doth reach the heavens, and creates a new Wave.
With the Wave, ████████, the power to tell the dark future, hope darkens, sadness and despair rule.

The last piece of the poem has words missing, but I can't work out what it might be. Does anyone else have an idea?

edit: 12/9

I forgot to mention I found another piece in Naval Monte:

█████ schemes when swallowed by the Cursed Wave.

█████ seduces with the sweet trap.

Wave reaches the Pinnacle, and escape none can. ██████ still remains with more cruelty to punish and destroy.

And with the turbulent destruction after the Wave. Only a void remains. From deep within the void arrives ████████.

Perhaps then the Wave is just a beginning as well.

I think it's probably some kind of game lore.

It keeps talking about Waves > the game has Wavemasters who control magic

[insinning]

The shadowed man could be a wave master. If the Wave is a destructive form of magic...

[threatmewted]

Maybe it's some kind of origin story for the world setting.

An evil wave covered the land but later on people were able to bring it under their control or something.

[insinning]

Cursed Wave = an unstoppable force?

Then whatever names or epithets were scribbled out are its agents? If it's lore, that's just how Fragment was built but if it's game plot maybe the players are expected to fight it?

[threatmewted]

They could be major bossfights down the line, yeah.

I wonder how it'll get implemented, though. It's not like the game seems to have any main story quests.

[insinning]

Wouldn't it be funny if Zelkova or Hien were one?

[threatmewted]

That would be a killer twist for a beta

But they'd have to do something totally different for the real game.

[insinning]

We're all under NDAs. Maybe we'll get made into NPCs who can't talk about events.

[threatmewted]

I mean, making the two of them handle waaaaaaay more players trying to get through the plot in real time sounds pretty much impossible too.

[insinning]

I wonder if they'll get anyone else helping for the beta.

[threatmewted]

Guess we'll find out eventually.
