I love this tune. This is the orchestra version, and original version, of the tune in the previous part.

"He's departed, Star,"
I spin around and face Lucina. She is unusually calm. I had expected her to... take this worse than this. She spoke those words emotionlessly, like she does not care at all. But I do not think that is why. She slides her eyes away from mine, steely and hard, and she strides over to the table in the center of the large chamber.
"I—I'm so sorry, Lucina..."
She just softly shakes her head and reaches down to pick up the larger golden headband. She gracefully lifts it up and slides it on her head, "No. You warned me of this a long time ago, Star,"
She turns to face me once again. She is wearing a longer cape that is sliding across the floor elegantly as she effortlessly glides across the crystal clear floors. It drapes loosely over her shoulders and hugs around them, fastened together at the front. Her long cerulean hair swipes back and forth across her back as she moves.
Her hard sapphire eyes study mine for a moment, as she stands there with a slightly shadowed face, "I am ready,"
She then turns away from me and glides across the large empty room to the double doors slightly open on the side. Long golden drapes droop down on both sides from the tall ceiling and sunlight filters in through the high crystal windows along the wall and doors. I hear mumbles floating through the doors.
The people of Ylisse.
They anticipate their new Empress.
They are ready for her.
But is she really ready for them?
I watch from a distance as she reveals herself to her people. The cheers from them increase as she approaches the balcony edge and lifts her right hand up in the air to begin waving down to them.
My stomach knots up a bit. That will be me someday. It must be someday soon.
I fight away the sudden urge as thoughts begin filling my mind all at once. He's really gone. Lucina's father... I cannot help but feel like he is my own. It is too close to home.
