"Prière" is a vocal arrangement of "Septette For The Dead Princess", the battle theme of Remilia Scarlet from the 2002 game ''VideoGame/TouhouKoumakyouTheEmbodimentOfScarletDevil'', as part of the ''Franchise/TouhouProject''-themed album KURENAI developed by Music/SoundHolic and sung by Nana Takahashi.

The song and accompanying music video focuses on Remilia Scarlet, a young vampire girl who would one night [[PastExperienceNightmare dream about her past of abuse and imprisonment]], and the subsequent awakening of the Scarlet Devil to break free of that prison.

You can find the music video uploaded by the music group [[https://youtu.be/IC0INLHIGKk here.]]

!!The song and the music video of "Prière" lists the following Tropes:
* AbuseDiscretionShot: The most we of the "parents" treatment of the Scarlet sisters is a shot of their FaceFramedInShadow sporting {{Psychotic Smirk}}s, followed by one of their hands slowly closing in to apprehend them. The following shot of both Remilia and Flandre HoldingHands shows them covered in bruises -- only the arms are seen, but it can be inferred that it extends to the rest of them.
* AbusiveParents: [[AmbiguousSituation While their status as parents are ambiguous]], the couple's status as abusive no doubt qualifies. The Scarlet sisters are kept locked in a cold storage room by these people, with them only showing themselves to the girls in person for the sake of physical abuse.
* AmbiguousSituation: Are the adults that abuse the Scarlet sisters even considered their parents, blood-related or not? The way they kept the two in a cold storage room with no way out may imply the siblings are kidnap victims, or the adults care little about parenting to give them a proper room.
* AssholeVictim: Upon the Scarlet sisters having their [[BadMoonRising vampiric side awoken by the blood moon]], the AbusiveParents get subject to a gruesome and bloody death, with the father in particular [[OffWithHisHead having his head ripped off by Flandre.]]
* BadMoonRising: When the Scarlet Moon arises, the Scarlet sisters find their vampire side awakening, with gruesome and messy results.
* TheCameo: Two other members of the Scarlet Devil Mansion, Meiling and Patchouli, are featured in the opening rainfall shot.
* CatapultNightmare: Downplayed. Remilia doesn't immediately sit up from her bed upon waking up from the nightmare, only doing so upon seeing Sakuya alive and well.
* DarkAndTroubledPast: The Scarlet sisters, victims of abuse and imprisonment, and powerless to stop it. Well, [[BadMoonRising until the blood moon entered the equation.]]
* EmptyEyes: After slaughtering a hallway full of the mansions maids, Remilia is shown to be in a blank state of emotion with nothing in her eyes. She breaks out of this state upon noticing Sakuya's stopwatch -- and Sakuya herself.
* ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice: A FreezeFrameBonus just after Remilia's SecondPersonAttack is of multiple corpses impaled on stakes.
* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: Witnessing Sakuya being one of her victims amongst the carnage not only snapped Remilia out of her murderous state, it also broke her down emotionally, clutching Sakuya close as she cries out. Mercifully, that sequence was just an extension of her dream, as she wakes up shortly after to find Sakuya alive and well.
* OffWithHisHead: Of the two couple that gets murdered, the man in particular had his head ripped off by Flandre, who's still holding it by the time they both come to their senses.
* PastExperienceNightmare: The events of the music video, with the possible exception of the last dream sequence, displays Remilia's past as a victim of child abuse along with her gaining the power.
* SymbolicallyBrokenObject: Sakuya stopwatch, [[DownplayedTrope while not entirely busted up]], is still cover in spots of blood to signify what happened to Sakuya, snapping Remilia out of her murderous state.
* TearsOfRemorse: Remilia, upon witnessing what had happened to Sakuya in her murder spree, starts to cry not in the moment, but in the real world, with Sakuya attempting to wipe the tears clean as Remilia wakes up.
