I am Euthyphro, hailing from Arcadia, the eternal holy city.
O Mother of the silver shuttle, the ever-blessed goddess Prusmene,
By thy grace, I take up this meager quill to chronicle the night's final splendor.
I beseech thee: grant me once more the hallowed gift of inspiration; preserve thy devout believer,
Lest my soul descend beneath the silver tree, to be sullied by the dust.
O wise and radiant queen, bringer of the light!
I beseech thee: deliver thus thy devout believer,
That my mortal frame may find eternal rest within thy holy embrace.
O wondrous Prusmene — ancient mother of the night and daughter who brings the light, mistress of the Golden Hall!
Countless times hast thou guided my vessel, permitting me to usher unsullied souls unto the lunar palace above the clouds.
Thou grantest mortals slumber within thy pale embrace; thou grantest them dreams that are theirs, and theirs alone.
Yet this is to be the final night — the final rest.
For there sits the eternal throne in the heavens, the Primordial One,
O world-shaking lord! It forges the bones of the earth.
It bids all dreams return to the earth, and all dreamless things to return to the earth.
It seeks to shroud the dreams of man with its own dream,
That we, the mortals of this fleeting world,
Shall abide an age without beginning or end,
Passing through a life of tranquil, dreamless rest.
O wise and radiant queen, bringer of the light,
Deliver me from the hands of my dread master!
For thee, I have ushered the unsullied souls,
For thee, I have steered the silver shining ship
I beseech thee: deliver thus thy devout believer,
That my mortal frame may find eternal rest within thy holy embrace!

- (A scene inside the Moonheart Gap starts playing)
- Aboard the vessel of the Welkin Moon, memories from the distant past begin to surface...
- Canon: ...Sonnet. You've been ditching work and sneaking out to play with humans more and more often these past few years, haven't you?
- Sonnet: Wh—What's the big deal! We can just leave the work to those Moon Envoys anyway, right?
- Sonnet: You've taken a shine to our new master, sisters, and they're willing to send subordinates to share our work, so what choice do I have but to accept?
- Sonnet: Besides, you've been having a great time playing around too, Canon! You even participated in a human festival!
- Canon: ...That was part of my duty. Their high priest called my name. It is only natural that I had to respond to their voices.
- Aria: Is pretending to be an ordinary human girl and dancing in front of your own statue also one of your duties? That's news to me.
- Canon: ...Aria.
- Aria: Canon.
- Canon: ...I wasn't asking you to call my name... Oh, forget it. Since the new Moon Envoy doesn't mind helping Sonnet with her work...
- Aria: Zibai. Her name is Zibai. You really should remember people's names.
- Canon: ...Since Zbai [sic] has no objections, I have nothing more to say. However, Sonnet, as The Will of the Moon, you must not forget the basic formulae that keep the world running.
- Canon: Prepare yourself. I will set you some foundational problems on verifying morphological isomorphisms. You are not to go back to the surface until you have solved them all.
- Aria: Hehe, how mean. You're just like a villain from an earthbound novel trying to drag the runaway princess back to the moon.
- Sonnet: What she said!
- Canon: ...You are the moon! Don't say things like that.
- The memory from the distant past fades away...
Trivia
- The Chanson of the Boatman shares a few key similarities to the Boatman's song in "Boatman"'s Task, namely references to their psychopomp duties and the Golden Hall.
