Immutable

Immutable is an Arknights music track acting as the leitmotif of Kal'tsit, performed by the American musician Melissa R. Kaplan.
From the lyrics, it can be surmised that Immutable reflects Kal'tsit's hidden emotions; being an immortal, the Feline must have witnessed the deaths of those close to her over the span of millenia she walked across Terra. This is possibly why Kal'tsit adopts a cold and stoic personality, whether from her trauma or to maintain a stable state of mind, and rarely – if ever – express her feelings.
Introduction
A faint wayfaring folksong, rocked about in the river of time.
A wind which went in search of answers, long on a road sans idea of where it came.
[Immutable]. That world under impassive inspection, still as same as ever.
A wind which went in search of answers, long on a road sans idea of where it came.
[Immutable]. That world under impassive inspection, still as same as ever.
Lyrics
Bow to the wind.
Feel her vestments,
Heal my skin.
The blind bargain's thin.
She's no stranger to rushing in.
Mission sub rosa,[note 1]
Concealed en umbra.[note 2]
Throwing caution to the wind.
She'll risk it for the lives.
She's left behind.
Hope's alive,
But she's flying blind.
Capricious at a moment's notice,
You ready?
Staging through time,
On her thread she'll save us nigh.
Her mind is confound,
She's no stranger to method sound.
Mission sub rosa,[note 1]
Concealed en umbra.[note 2]
Throwing caution to the wind.
She'll risk it for the lives.
She's left behind.
Hope's alive,
But she's flying blind.
Standing eclipse.
Feel the fire on her skin.
The blind bargain's thin.
She's no stranger to rushing in.
Mission sub rosa,[note 1]
Concealed en umbra.[note 2]
Throwing caution to the wind.
She'll risk it for the lives.
She's left behind.
Hope's on the rise,
But she's flying blind.
Feel her vestments,
Heal my skin.
The blind bargain's thin.
She's no stranger to rushing in.
Mission sub rosa,[note 1]
Concealed en umbra.[note 2]
Throwing caution to the wind.
She'll risk it for the lives.
She's left behind.
Hope's alive,
But she's flying blind.
Capricious at a moment's notice,
You ready?
Staging through time,
On her thread she'll save us nigh.
Her mind is confound,
She's no stranger to method sound.
Mission sub rosa,[note 1]
Concealed en umbra.[note 2]
Throwing caution to the wind.
She'll risk it for the lives.
She's left behind.
Hope's alive,
But she's flying blind.
Standing eclipse.
Feel the fire on her skin.
The blind bargain's thin.
She's no stranger to rushing in.
Mission sub rosa,[note 1]
Concealed en umbra.[note 2]
Throwing caution to the wind.
She'll risk it for the lives.
She's left behind.
Hope's on the rise,
But she's flying blind.

Trivia
- A piano melody heard at the start of Immutable can also be faintly heard (with a slightly different interpretation and melody) in the BGM of the A Walk in the Dust menu, where Kal'tsit acts as the protagonist.
