[untitled album] Written by Tom Joyce Album Synopsys In the basement of a cold, deserted castle in Scotland, an eidolon was brought into being: self-titled Amanda, she was more beautiful than any female ever. In her castle she stayed for seven years, until she was visited by two knights. One by the north entrance, the dark knight, and one by south, the knight of light. They met in the courtyard and prepared a duel. The knight of darkness won the duel, killing the white knight. The dark knight began ascending to the west tower, when Amanda flew down the stairs, past the dark knight. The dark knight stopped her, saying, "I have completed a duel with the White Knight, and I wish to win your heart." She simply says, "I have watched both of you for four years, and I had my mind already made up. I love the White Knight, and he is my desire." She advances downward again, and upon arriving at the courtyard's floor, she quickly flies over to the White Knight and kisses him on the lips. He is awakened and she says, "We must leave." With that, they climb up onto his horse, and they depart the castle. The Dark Knight stays in the castle and trains for three years. Then he leaves, to search out the White Knight. The Dark Knight and the White Knight meet and battle, and the Dark Knight wins, killing the White Knight for good (since there is no way for Amanda to bring anybody back to life more than once). By killing Amanda's true love, Amanda "dies" at that instant. Upon learning of this, the Dark Knight says out loud, "There is no reason to live, because my true love is dead." The Dark Knight's body then turned stone, and his soul was banished from the earth, to a place between heaven and hell, for non-human beings. The surprise ending is that Amanda can be found in this place too, as can the White Knight (although everyone is mad at everyone else ... Amanda is mad at both the White Knight and the Dark Knight because of their ridiculous fighting leading to her "death," Dark Knight is mad at White Knight, White Knight is mad at Dark Knight).
