軍隊が攻め入るシーンで流れる曲です。主にスペルビアとインヴィディアとの闘いや、アーケディア軍がイーラの戦闘艦マルサネスに襲いかかるシーンを想定して曲を書きました。壮大な闘いの中にピンチ感とイケイケ感の両方を織り交ぜ、プレイヤーの気分によってどちらのニュアンスにも感じ取れるようにしてあります。そして、こちらも人間の欲望や「楽園」などがテーマとなっているので「楽園」のモチーフが入っています。

This track plays in scenes where military forces are attacking. I primarily thought of the battles between Mor Ardain and Uraya, and of the attack from Indol on Torna’s Marsanes battleship, while composing this track. I tried to work feelings of both excitement and crisis into the song, so the player can get either sense depending on their own feelings. I also saw these scenes as having themes of human desire and “Elysium”, so I worked the Elysium motif into this piece as well.
