Rush - 2112 (mixed with String Quartet) [Oracle - The Dream, Soliloquy and Grand Finale] HD 3/3

Confident that the Priests will be impressed with his discovery, he brings the guitar before them in part four, "Presentation". The dialogue between the man and the Priests alternates between the gentle guitar work and clear pitch of the man, and the hard-rocking guitars and shrieking pitch of the Priests. Ultimately, the Priests dismiss the instrument and destroy it, saying that it was just 'another toy that helped destroy the elder race of man'.

The protagonist returns home, discouraged. In part five, "Oracle: The Dream", he has a dream where an oracle takes him on a journey to see the true fate of the Elder Race, who had not been destroyed—instead, "they left our planets long ago" and now inhabit a "strange, and wondrous land" graced by "the works of gifted hands". He is amazed by its wonder and beauty, and the way in which the people were free to do and create what they please. In the dream he sees the Elder Race growing in power ("The Elder Race still learn and grow") and preparing to return to destroy the temples.

He then awakens in part six, "Soliloquy", and is distraught by the fact that such a world, so perfect for him ("Just think of what my life might be in a world like I have seen!"), will never exist. In the cave where he first discovered the guitar, he kills himself ("I don't think I can carry on, carry on this cold and empty life... my life blood spills over."), unable to bear the thought of a life without the wonders that he now knows are possible of the human race.

Part seven, "The Grand Finale", is a grand instrumental concluding with the spoken words "Attention, all planets of the Solar Federation: We have assumed control". Some fans interpret the Grand Finale as the victorious return of the Elder Race, while others interpret it as the establishment of absolute power by the Priests who have finally destroyed the last dissident to their order.
