Death - Harmony of Dissonance - 01

Death artwork from Harmony of Dissonance.

In Castlevania: Harmony of Dissonance, Death wanders through Dracula's Castle searching for his Lord while trying to understand where his master has disappeared to. Death soon realizes that due to Maxim Kischine's eagerness to find and destroy Dracula's body parts the same as Simon Belmont did about half a century ago, he inadvertently had awoken the spirit of Dracula.

This led to Maxim slowly being taken over by the spirit of the Dark Lord, and the split of Dracula's Castle into two different castles. Death recognizes that Maxim's body would make a suitable host for the resurrection of Dracula, and soon seeks to prevent Juste Belmont from finding his friend and freeing him from Dracula's control. Death's theme in the game is Dark Covenant which plays whenever he is encountered throughout Juste's journey inside the castle.

Background Music: Dark Covenant

???: Halt! The color of your soul... You must be a Belmont...

Juste: That is correct. This... overwhelming power... Death...?
Death: Indeed.
Juste: Which means this is, in fact, Dracula's castle...
Death: That might be true... though the power that is here is not my lord's.
Juste: What do you mean?!
Death: I must go now. We shall meet again, son of Belmont...
(Death vanishes away with evil laughter)
Juste: Aaargh... He... got away...

(Juste shakes his fist)

Castlevania: Harmony of Dissonance / Clock Tower A / Second Encounter with Death

Background Music: Dark Covenant

(Juste arrives at the portal and encounters with Death again)

Juste: Aaargh! Death has returned!
Death: Mortal... you know of a man by the name of 'Maxim,' do you not?
Juste: Yes, I do! What about him?!
Death: I believe that man has discovered objects that hold my lord's powers.
Juste: ?! You mean Dracula's remains...
Death: My lord's fragmented remains?! Now it makes perfect sense...
Juste: What on earth are you talking about?!
Death: You have provided me with an answer. So I shall reward you with an explanation. It's simple. This castle is a creation of Maxim's will.
Juste: What?! But he's not capable of such a feat!
Death: True of the original Maxim, but possession of my lord's remains changes everything. The castles' two spirits now embody my lord's powers.
Juste: The castles' 'two' spirits?!
Death: Two spirits exist now within his body. His original spirit and a wicked spirit born from my lord's remains.
Juste: What a ridiculous notion...
Death: And so, two castles were born to embody the two spirits. Of the two spirits, the wicked one wanted the castles most.
Juste: Wait a minute! What do you mean by 'two castles'?!
Death: Ignorant mortal... Don't you realize that this castle has two "layers"? I don't want to have anything more to do with you. Farewell!
(Death enters the portal with evil laughter)
Juste: W-wait! Are you running away from me?
Death: This castle, as it is now, is a transient one. I must go and aid its completion...

(Death leaves)

Background Music: Beloved Person, Dark Covenant
When: After defeating Pazuzu

Juste: Lydie!!

Lydie: Juste! Is it really you, Juste?!
Juste: Are you all right? Are you injured?
Lydie: I'm fine. Maxim had me tucked safely away here.
Juste: Oh, I see...
Lydie: Didn't he come with you?
Juste: Maxim's waiting for us outside, I think...
Lydie: Hey, what happened to the person that brought me to this place?
Juste: You mean that you don't know who it was that kidnapped you!?
Lydie: Until Maxim came to my rescue, I-I was blindfolded...
Juste: I see... Okay, let's try to get out of this place...
Lydie: Yes, let's go.
(Suddenly, Death comes with evil laughter)
Death: So this is where you've been hiding... He, too, is a bold man...
(Death approaches Lydie as she screams)
Lydie: Nooooo!
Juste: Lydie!
(Death grabs Lydie)
Death: I shall have this maiden for myself.
Lydie: No! Juste... save me!!
(Death vanishes with Lydie as she screams again. Juste shakes his fist with anger)
Juste: Damn! I must hurry after them!

Background Music: Dark Covenant
When: Battle with Death

(Juste shakes his fist to Death with anger)

Juste: So this is where you were! Return Lydie to me!
Death: Fear not. That maiden is now with Maxim.
Juste: But why!? Leave Lydie out of this!
Death: That maiden will play an essential role in the completion of this castle.
Juste: What do you mean by that!?
Death: This castle is in a transient state and is preparing for my lord's resurrection. However, the castle is not complete until these two castles have merged. In short, we must rid of your dear friend's spirit.
Juste: Maxim is a man of great strength! It won't be so easy to do as you plan!!
Death: He was born of my lord, so of course he knows ways to reinforce his power. When something is dear to you, its effect on you becomes immeasurable.
Juste: ?! No, surely not... not Lydie's blood... Stay away from her!
Death: Do not interfere. Now, I will extinguish the candle of your soul!
(The battle begins)
