The Nibelung Manuscripts is a manuscript of Wagner's Opera. It is made up of ten manuscripts, each one found within the world of Shadow Hearts: Covenant.

The scripts are helpful to Karin Koenig, as it teaches her new swordfighting skills and techniques in battle. With each new script comes another dramatic scene, compelling the reader to continue finding the set.

Each script must be received in order, but if a player goes through the game, they can collect these items in this order without backtracking.

Note: If you miss one, you unlock the Nibelung scenes in the order they appear in the game, even if you miss one, the next one will give you the one you were meant to get previously.

The order goes; Prelude, 4, 7, 2, 5, 6, 3, 8, 9, Finale.
