Apocalypse ~Memento Mori~, also called ORATORIO Apocalypse ~Memento Mori~ is a PV of The Epic of Zektbach. The song, Apocalypse that goes with it was composed by Zetkbach and the lyrics/vocal are credited to Yu Tokiwa.
Events[]
The PV begin with a white screen with the long title "Oratorio Apocalypse ~momento mori~ Zektbach". The camera zoomes in the second O of "Oratorio" and we can see Hannes's silhouette.
There is a blurred scene where some silhouettes are visible ( two pillars, a baby, a mirror, the baby transforming in a woman in a dress (with an umbrella ?) behind a portal and supposedly the source of Lourdes).
After that, we see three birds passing behind a blurred tree with little Hannes holding a bouquet of white flowers to a nun (her mother?). A butterfly fly at the sky.
The nun take Hannes in her arms and they are all two blurred in a white background.
We see a lake with white swans behind a chapel. A black smoke covers the chapel, next all the screen.
The screen "burns" and a big indescribable image move in front of the camera (with some people's faces), with a red filter and white particules that remembers a fire. The red filter turn an a blue one, next a pink, a blue again and a red again. The plan ends with Hannes blurred by the red filter.
The screen turns white and a new sequence of image moving repeats. There is a blue filter, a green one, pink, blue.
There is an image of three silhouettes of birds in white background. They disappears one second later.
There is a silhouette of flowers and leaves.
We see an arm (of Hannes?) stretched toward a butterfly.
The silhouette of Hannes appears. She wears her normal outfit.
The silhouette of the legs and shoes of Hannes.
After a flash, she is standing and some particules (fire?) comes out of her.
We see Hannes, holding her ands, covered by blood. We don't see her expression.
"I keep pray"
A picture of Lien, Sigma and Shamshir appears in a blue background that become more and more darker, with the lyrics "Why do you feel nothing ?"
A picture of Nox and Matin appears in a green background the background become more and more darker too with the lyrics "Why fo you injured one another ?"
There is a transition where Nox and Matin fight with their swords.

In the transition, Malchut falls down, some branches appears on her and Gijiri is transformed to a flame.
L'Erisia appears, in a pink background with the lyrics " Why ? You never win the cursed war". This time, a pink to black gradient appears more and more.
In the transition, L'Erisia dissepear like a screen switching of, with some stripes. The background turns all black. When letters dissapears, they let a pink color.
We have the same sequenece as in Apocalypse~dirge of swans~, with the apparition of each words:
- Glory: A blue and black peacock, a dark blue silhouette and an injured arm holding a red crown.
- Glory in reverse: The peacock became a mass of feathers similar to eyes. The world "Glory" is the shadow of five eyes, in a bold and stylized typography. The arm is scribbled in black and the jewels of the crown turns into eyes. Some Three hands are lifted at the bottom of the frame. On the back of a hand, there is a eye.
- Decline: a hand holding a gallows, two birds in the background, a dark red silhouette and a raven, where "Decline" is written, in a handwritting typography.
- "Decline reverse": the hand became a fort with red,white,black and red stripes flag, the rope became a moon, the silhouette became a person, the birds became four triangles and the Raven more aggressive, with a red and white round as his head. The word disappears completly.

- "Arrogance Reverse": The lizard turns into a skeleton of himself, some of his bones are pictured by grey squares. Two of the crown flowers transforms into a crown of lizard. The last one become light blue squares. The sword become a chain spreading from either side of the screen. The word "Arrogance" is oversimplified into squares and triangle.
- "Silence": Two hands in a praying position with a rosary in the right wrist, three white lilies are visible in a green form and a plant of black lily.
- "Silence Reverse": The hands and the rosary become black mask. The white lilies become a mass of blue masks and the black lily become a flower field.
