Prophet of the Last Eclipse

Prophet of the Last Eclipse is the second studio album in a trilogy by Luca Turilli's eponymous band. It was released on November 26, 2002, by Limb Music Productions. The ten tracks tell a story about the world Zaephyr and its destruction. Turilli was inspired to make this album by his love of science fiction films, in particular, Event Horizon. At the end, Turilli mentions that the story is "to be continued", but it is not continued on The Infinite Wonders of Creation.
