Merlin casts his spell on Ayreon, even though Ayreon tries to explain to him that he’s not the enemy.
When Merlin has cast his charm, he receives a vision that proves Ayreon was genuine. He doesn’t want to pass into history as a martyr, so he devises a plan to pass Ayreon’s word in the 20th century...
A. Ayreon's Fate
[Ayreon]
Misguided Merlin
You fail to understand
I could never be your rival
I was just a pawn
In a future master plan
For the purpose of survival
[Merlin]
Ayreon, I’ve cast my spell upon you
I have no faith
You cannot be true
Ayreon!
[Ayreon]
I forgive you, Merlin
For you don't know what you've done
Even for you, it was all a mystery
One day you’ll see
That I was the one
Who could change the course of history
[Merlin]
Ayreon, your words are all in vain
Close your eyes
There'll be no more pain
Oh, Ayreon...
B. Merlin's Prophecy
[Merlin]
I see one day
His story will be told
At the end of the 20th century
I see one day
The truth will unfold
And the quest has now begun
Oh, Ayreon!
I hope one day
That man will understand
It's in his power
To change his destiny
I hope one day
He'll do all that he can
And all the nations will be one
Oh, Ayreon!
