Opening cosmos as the Celebrant sings

Particle waterfalls and fireworks for the entrances of the chorus, dancers, and musicians
Ominous instrumental moments with dancers, called Meditations
Flying nebulas during a more upbeat song
Colorful yet ominous final Meditation
Colorful and uplifting final cosmos

Particle Waterfall

Flying Nebulas
