Mistwalker

Mistwalker Corporation is an American-Japanese independent video game development studio. The company was founded in July 2004 by Hironobu Sakaguchi, best known for his work at Square including creating the Final Fantasy series. The company has created both game franchises such as Blue Dragon and Terra Battle, and standalone titles including Lost Odyssey (2007) and The Last Story (2011). With the financial problems caused by Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within, and his growing dissatisfaction with management, Sakaguchi decided that he wanted to make games outside Square. Mistwalker's first two titles were Xbox 360 RPGs; Blue Dragon (2006) and Lost Odyssey. Following The Last Story for Wii, Sakaguchi and Mistwalker changed to focus on in-house mobile titles.

Before the winter comes 
Make peace with your gods 
For no hope lasts with men 
When the summer sets 
I feel the gusts of September's wind 
It calls to me, to a fixture in my past 
Of the day that a season found me 
And left its mark upon my visions 

My kingdom cold is fast approaching 
I still remember my first view of vastness 
White fire swept clean the earth 
Leaving desolate the plains of this world 
A glacial reckoning of what's to come 
Tree bark splits and crystals form 
Beginning of a new chapter 
Turn the page to see what happens 

Archaic in an aftermath 
Before the start of autumnal collapse 
Batten down the hatches 
Prepare for a pale darkness 
O, winter is coming 
Mother Nature and Mother Earth conspire 
To end the infernal months 
And begin illustrious duration 

Glisten for me precious seasons 
You give freedom to my words 
On hands and knees I beg 
Release me from perpetual scorn 
Gazing upon grey skies 
Watchful for signs of life 
That clouds of dark split wide 
A rift for snowfall deep inside 

When the warmth begins to fade 
I feel pleasure in my knowledge 
That once the forest bleeds 
Old Man Winter shall rear his head 
The one eyed wanderer 
Two crows circling the sky 
Might spear Gungnir in hand 
Trudging through depths on land 

Gift from the heavens 
So majestic in your movement 
I call to thee 
Beseeched to an early arrival 
I was born as a son of the frost 
Destined as a prophet of cold 
A soothing shade of winter 
In a forest murdered by ice 

This is my path through life 
To impeach the genesis of spring 
Endure the harshness of heat 
And pray for my beloved's return 
The drudkh of forests charred 
Burned by a cold sliver fire 
Still in woodlands, stillborn wood 
Born of ash in an ancient world 

Return to the cradle of life 
Zenith of a grandiose design 
Watch the stars as I become skyclad 
The progeny of pagan gods 
As much a son as I am a daughter 
Borne of the tempered water 
The temple of temperance 
A dedication to absence of progress 

Soaring 'cross the ageless sky 
Black ravens of a smouldering high 
Feathering falling of symbolic might 
A prophecy of what lies in sight 
A blanket of death precedes you 
The forest floor, a graveyard 
Before duality encompasses all 
Smothering all that was left behind 

Abandon all that you've ever known 
The compass points towards what north is shown 
A journey to my point of dawning 
Where the goddess birthed me, at the edge of a world 
Universal inheritance 
Weightless and drifting 
When the polar winds are blowing 
Where the solar winds are growing 

I watch lifeblood drain away 
Bathed in frost from a thawed domain 
Realm drenched in white, life withers away 
A legend of reborn immortality 
Stare into the reflecting pools 
But don't step through 
A muted glistening, listening 
Close to the nocturne
