"Dark Impetus" is a fan-favorite, and our take is equal parts true to the original and venturing into new territory. The instantly-recognizable violin solo throughout, performed by Patti Rudisill, is highlighted while orchestral accompaniment ebbs and flows underneath with more fitting reharmonizations of the original track. Halfway through the arrangement, the violin meets with our vocal soloist—Laura Intravia—who briefly describes this unknown force with the following: "Et audi famam illius cucurrit quaeque tetigit destruens. Impetus tenebris." The track finishes as Aqua, Ventus, and Terra face this newcomer in succession, ending as it began with a final hint to the hooded figure's true identity.
