Story:The Distance Within Us/Pentecost \ Loy Krathong

Holy Spirit, Lord of light \ Golden blossom hides its face

-

''Phra Sonthi, it is time to awaken. To make merit for a successful voyage.''

[I don’t want to get up. This is pointless.] \ "I am ready. Sawatdi khrap, Bhikku Somdej."

-

From Thy clear celestial height \ Its false hubris must erase

-

''Hey bro, I made you a bonsai before you leave. I like it. Do you like it?''

[Another one? I can't bring them on the spaceship.] \ "Thanks - it's beautiful. I'll miss you, Rang."

-

Thy pure beaming radiance give \ Lay it gently riverbound

-

The Caesura'' has a single directive. What do you think of that directive?''

[It's not that simple. It's never that simple.] \ "I'm fully committed to it. As much as you are, Haruka."

-

Come thou light of all that live \ Sing to it without a sound

-

''Looks like you have a bit more responsibility now. Anything I can do before we check out that ship, boss?''

[No. Don't call me 'boss.'] \ "It's nothing compared to what you and your crew are doing. Good luck, Seungchul."

-

Thou in toil art comfort sweet \ Merit-made it shall now see

-

''Sonthi, listen to me. We can't allow another compromise to the hull. Close vault 8-B. Sonthi!

[I've always listened to you. To everyone. Where am I now?] \ "I'm listening. We'll fix it. I know, mother."

-

Blessed coolness in the heat \ Lantern-lit aridity

-

''I mean this, Sonthi. More than I ever have before. You are a good son. You-... ''

[Tell me you’ll answer. Tell me you'll answer when I call.] \ "I can’t do this alone. Father--!"

-

Thou refreshing peace bestow \ Thus abandoned it lets go

-

What is it that you want, Sonthi?

"I... I don't know, Se'ze."

"Let me tell you what we need."

-

Solace in the midst of woe \ Blooming in the overflow
