Druth: With Gramr reforged, you will have Odin’s blessing to walk, a Goddess, into the halls of Helheim and challenge Hela as an equal.
Senua: So Dillion is helping me. And the sword will lead me to him. Like when we first met.
Narrator: Dillion gave her the strength to pass the warrior trials. And she saw a way out. To leave her past behind and become a warrior in Dillion’s clan.
Zynbel: The sword is tainted by Gods of darkness. Leave it.
Senua: No. He left it here. He wants me to take it.
Zynbel: You will pay a price for this!
Narrator: But years later, with Zynbel’s parting words still haunting her, the darkness came back with a vengeance. A plague. Everyone suffered.
Senua: Dillion?
Dillion: My father was not supposed to die like this.
Senua: Dillion… Come back to me.
Zynbel: Do you see it clearly now, Senua? The suffering you’ve caused?
Furies: This is your fault. You brought this plague to us! You have blood on your hands! They’re coming for you now. There’s nowhere to run to. Stay here and rot. This is where you belong.
Druth: In the Sea of Corpses, the corpse wave threw itself over the ones I loved, the ship broke up under them, the ship that had sailed from the land of shining fields. Their memorial stone is secret. Come not here in the sun, come not with a sword, come not crying over a naked corpse, come not with disturbed mind.
Zynbel: Do you hear the suffering, Senua? Does your precious gift of sight let you see the souls that rot here in this Sea of Corpses? Do you feel the blood running cold on your skin? Do you hear their endless cries? Do you smell their putrid wounds? They were once brothers, sisters and loved ones, and look at what you have done to them! All because you were a coward. Because you ran from your curse instead of facing it. When you turned your back on your father, Zynbel, you turned your back on the Gods and let the darkness wreak havoc on your people! Why must they pay for your heresy?
Furies: Who’s that? It’s Galena. Her mother is here. She’s dead just like you.
Senua: Mother! Where are you?
Zynbel: Do you hear, Senua? Do you hear the voice of your mother, Galena? She calls for you, Senua! Go to her! Answer her pitiful call!
Senua: Mother! I need you! Help me!
Furies: The darkness took her and it will take you too.
Galena: Why are you doing this to me?
Furies: You’re both dead! You both surrendered to darkness! Mother and daughter, dead in the sea of corpses.
Zynbel: Even your dear beloved mother was powerless against the darkness when it came for her! She too had the sight. She too doubted the Gods and let the darkness infest her. But she didn’t run. She escaped the only way she knew. She gave her life to the Gods. If only you had done the same, the world would have been spared this horror. It’s not too late! She’s calling for you. Why don’t you join her? Why do you still fight on? Maybe you too should suffer with your brethren in this rot and let your blood seep into the seas and rivers of Hel. Isn’t that what you deserve after all you have done? Give the darkness what it wants. Let it swallow your soul and destroy all that you are. Why are you fighting for someone who is already dead? Just look around you. What hope is there for him? Even if his soul could be rescued, do you think he would thank you for what you have done to him, to his friends, to his father?! Hahahaha.
Furies: The darkness has taken you. Galena and Senua. You are lost. There’s nothing you can do. You’re dead. You both are dead.
Senua: I can’t fight it anymore! Not on my own! Where are you, mother? I want to be with you…
Narrator: That night, she gave up on her world… to follow in the footsteps of her mother. To go to a place where the darkness couldn’t reach her.
Dillion: Senua, look at me.
Senua: Do you hear them? They’re calling me…
Dillion: We’ve lost so many. And I’ve lost my father. I can’t lose you.
Senua: You said it. I have blood on my hands…
Dillion: I didn’t say that. You’ve done nothing wrong!
Senua: Zynbel was right. Everyone will suffer.
Dillion: Zynbel is a fake! He is a hateful bitter liar! He is poison! And his words still haunt you. Who do you trust? Him or me? Do you still believe in me, Senua? In us… Come back to me… Please. Don’t let this darkness stand between us.
