Seven days have passed since the destruction of the Barrier and the formation of the New World. But instead of trying to "save" the World by reforming the Barrier, our heroes have uncovered the truth and changed their target. The World needs no saving. The one who needs saving is the corrupted, obsessive and messed up Angel, Sachrist.
Aniik, Ramael, Yonuro, Kallian and Yulim are now preparing a medium sized portal to end up where Hisami resides, Sachrist's Holy Shrine of the west. Even though they are 100% certain that the World isn't going to end, Yonuro still looks at the time to confirm Sachrist's ultimate lie.
Yonuro- It's been exactly 7 days since the formation of the New World. And...
Quite surprisingly, something does happen. Even though it's not something to worry about. Yonuro and Aniik don't move an inch as they know it's all been a lie since the very begining, but Yulim and Kallian still brace themselves and cower in fear. All this time they were told that world as they know it was going to end if it wasn't for the Barrier. Their concerns however were all obsolete. The truth shall now be revealed.
Yonuro / Aniik- Oh?
Yulim / Kallian- What?
A beautiful calming breeze suddenly passes by and then the skies become crystal clear. A rainbow appears above their heads and the sun shines ever brighter.
The trees that are still left standing from the bombardment are as green as ever with birds flying around and between them singing happy melodies. Flowers bloom around the place they stand, where grass still resides, giving them a sense of optimism and hope.
Ramael- How beautiful...
Yulim- Is this what Sachrist was preventing from happening all this time? The welfare of nature itself?
Kallian- Apparently, sister... How sad...
The sisters are right. Without Sachrist's intervention, even the "first phase" of the New World wouldn't have been concerning at all. The only reason it was even violent was due to the Barrier itself, which was constantly preventing this balanced miracle from happening, the union of our worlds.
Aniik- And all this for Hisami... It's hard to believe. I wonder if I would feel a fraction of Sachrist's feelings had I had a sister.
Yonuro- I don't think anyone would go that far to protect their loved ones. It's just selfish and cruel. Hisami wouldn't have wanted this either...
They all take a moment to look at this last moment of beauty and sort out their feelings before going back to finish what they started.
Aniik- We must not look back now. There's a future we need to make sure unfolds. Let's finish this portal and end this.
They all agree and then follow Aniik's orders to complete the portal. Yonuro takes care of the hexagon this time, but she's still kinda struggling to keep her hand steady. Ramael helps her be still and makes her life easier. Yulim and Kallian both search in different places for candles. Yulim stumbles upon some inside a ruined church nearby and brings six of them back. Aniik stays back and is getting ready to use a lot of her Dark Essence for the final process.
Aniik- Everything's set. Chant the words together with me, everyone... Wait. What words though? We didn't get that far...
It is true that the process was cancelled before Sachrist could tell them the cryptic words they need to recite in order to complete the ritual. Their far away goal has met yet another obstacle...
Yulim- What do we do, now?
Ramael thinks hard about it and comes up with a solution. Her excellent memory and wits will save the day once more. Go Ramael!
Ramael- Themistokleos da Poleis da hornet. Arios sasageyo, herecy of the Pale king. Thine power is what we seeketh. (...) Que riposte you are toast, min eidomen the Titan who was bigger than the Walls. Princessou Histroria ekanon praka prin. (...) May our calls kick them in the balls.
They all astoundingly stare at the hexagon, especially at the particles of dark essence that start to float and merge together in the centre.
And then, against all odds, Ramael's precise rememberance of the Pendagon's ritual comes in clutch and opens up a portal, a one way gate to Hisami's dungeon-like cell underground Sachrist's Shrine of the West.
Yonuro- Nice one, Ramael!
They are all excited to see the portal completed and clap for Ramael's smart move.
Ramael- Thank you all. I really needed that. The courage to end this heartbreaking tale. The strength to face Sachrist. I'm really thankful.
Yonuro- You deserve much much more than that. To stand up against the one you love... To face your deception of over 400 years full of lies... Not many people are capable of that.. We're all really proud of you. Once this is all over, I will make sure your life is only full of happy memories. You deserve it more than anybody, Ramael...
"Yonuro..." says Ramael while holding back her tears.
Kallian comes forth and expresses her appreciation as well.
Kallian- Compared to you, Ramael, I am too fragile and incompetent. I think I would have given up if I were in a similar position. You really are brave. It's only natural that we acknowledge your resolution.
Aniik- Yeah, blankie. We're all rooting for you. Together we will bring peace to the New World!
Ramael- You guys--
A peculiar loud sound suddenly cuts this wholesome conversation short. They all look up to the sky and see another wave of armed battleplanes sent from the Faith Organization approaching their location at an alarming speed. Fortunately though, the portal from the hexagon is now open and ready to use. They have no choice but to get in.
Aniik- Quick, everyone! Jump!
"Lingerians detected"
"Opening fire in 3 ..... 2 ..... 1 ...."
Everyone- Ahhh!
They all make it through and the array of bullets finds no target. The only thing it does is to destroy the portal after everyone has made it to the other side.
"Huh? Weren't there a bunch of Lingerians or am I tripping?"
"Whatever, we're almost done here. Two ministries remain. Our next target will be the Lingering World's leader, Sachrist, located in the West Shrine. It's a bit far from here, but our supplies are enough to dominate the entirety of the Lingering World. After all, our goal is revenge from these greedy people. And then, World Domination."
"Behold the World's one and only force, the Faith Organization!"
The aircrafts head to their remaining targets in the capital, Saintdom, at a particularly high speed.
_______________________________
Following Kinako Kendomo, Geord, Ikki and Samei arrive at the entrance of the first hidden base of the F.O. The place is really far away from Samei's and Geord's so it took them a long while to find. Although it is a really faraway place that Samei could have never visited on her own, it seems kind of familiar to her all the same.
Samei- Why do I feel like I've been here before?
Ikki- How come? I don't have recollections of this place whatsoever.
Kinako- What're you two mubling about, you couldn't have possibly come here before--
"Wait. Samei actually could. She was on par with my skill, I'd heard..."
Samei- I know it sounds weird but I do recognise this house over here and this garden over there. And-- NO WAY. That is the entry, isn't it....? It's the same one as... back then....
Geord frowns after seeing what Samei is pointing at.
Geord- Is the base hidden under a sewer? How weird...
Kinako- Yah... So you did actually come here on your first mission, Samei... And at such a young age... My first serious mission was when I reached 18 years old.
Kinako takes a moment to realise what that means.
Kinako- Then you must be stronger than me. A whole lot stronger... I don't think it's a stretch to say that right now, you are... the most skilled mercenary in the entire World.
Samei pretends to smile and says "I wouldn't get that far. I'm really rusty. Hahah.."
Kinako- Hah! Clean that rust while you still can! We're doing this!
Geord helps Kinako get rid of the sewer's removable cover and then they all enter the complicated underground sewer system.
Ikki- Ladies first.
Samei- Just say that you're scared already! Hihihi..
Ikki- Ahhhh! No, I'm-- not...
Samei teases her brother for one last time and then drops down the entry. Everyone follows her to the complex sewer system just before the hidden base one.
They have all descended and it's really dark. They can't see much and the atmosphere feels heavy. They all cover their noses with a piece of cloth used as a scarf that Kinako gave them earlier.
Ikki- I can't see shit!
Geord- Yeah, and our pistols are not equiped with flashlights or something...
Samei- Who said our guns have no lights?
Samei brings forth her ultimate creation, a revolver with a twist. Samei touches the trigger and is about to press it.
Geord- Don't Samei! It's going to ruin the ambush!
Contrary to Geord's concerns however, all the gun does is... produce a strong fire source, just as if it was a lighter.
Samei- The Radiant Revolver 1000, one of my proudest creations. You can use it as a lighter or to confuse eyour enemies by making them think you're holding a real gun. Pretty cool, right?
Kinako- Crazy shit there. The young are really creative nowadays.
Geord- You don't say. If it works it works. Let's go.
"Hihihi, you finally came in handy!" Samei giggles.
The others move on without her as she is currently smiling uncontrollably due to the revolver's effectiveness.
Ikki- That's cool and all Samei, but how are we going to move on if you stay back and laugh? You have to go first for us to see, you silly!
Samei's smug face comes to an end really quickly though after hearing Ikki's criticism. She widens her eyes, says a barely audible "sorry" and then runs to the front line as fast as she can.
Even though Kinako is there to guide them all to the correct path, Samei often finds his directions unnecessary. She kinda remembers the layout by herself. Although she doesn't want to remember, terrible old memories keep getting stronger with each forward step. The massive killing spree of her old naive self makes her want to puke.
Samei is torn once again. She wanted to never resort to killing again. No matter the cost. But now they must resort back to that mindset to prevent a bigger loss from happening...
"What should I do?" she ponders while walking forwards with uncertainty.
Samei has decided. When the time comes, she is going to aim all her shots at non-vital points and minimize the number of deaths to ideally only Zaiaku.
Trying to do that however is an additive challenge all on itself. Samei has to not only hit them at non vital points but ensure they stay unconscious to prevent a flank from happening. It's a risky choice but Samei doesn't want to go back on her word again.
"I can do this. I am strong enough."
Samei clenches her hand into a fist and then momentarily pauses her movement. The place they just got to is definitely the reason.
Geord- Is everything okay, Samei?
Samei- I'm fine. It's just that this place... It makes me remember a lot of dreadful memories... In this spot as we stand, there once was a family member I killed. Yes, my inaction lead to his death. That's the spot where my uncle died while I was fleeing the battlefield...
They all take a moment to let Samei's feelings settle down before continuing.
They are now walking on unfamiliar territory. Samei has never gotten that far to the hidden basse-- which at the time she didn't even know was base one-- and a feeling of uncertainty grips her as they approach a huge entry door made out of platinum.
They finally stand before it, awestruck by its glorious mystifying look.
How are they going to get through this huge locked up door? Kinako answers before the others can ask that question.
Kinako- Don't worry about the door, guys. Samei, gimme your bright gun 100 or whatever you call that. We will go around it through a hidden path. Follow after me.
Unauthorized use of content: if you find this story on Amazon, report the violation.
Kinako leads the way to a dungeon-like pathway with barely and lights and safe ground. They all have to watch their step at any given point. Who knows what trap awaits them.
Nevertheless, they make it down to the last obstacle before actually encountering base one, where they will ambuh Zaiaku, with no casualties whatsoever.
Kinako- We're almost there. The underground base is a few meters down, at the end of this pathway.
Ikki utters a hopeful "yess" and the others are slightly grinning that they have come this far. But Kinako has some concerns.
Kinako- This progress is not something to be happy about, though. It's in fact scary to say the least. This radio silence from our enemy is too good to be true. Somethings smells really bad--
And as soon as he says that, Kinako widens his eyes after hearing a distinct lingering sound.
"WATCH OUT! AWAY FROM THE WALLS!"
The walls around the path, together with the ground they are standing on are surrounded with explosives ready to detonate.
Geord- Shit!
The ground beneath them breaks and they all fall from a height of 8 meters inside the official ground of hidden base one.
Ikki- Ouch...
Samei- That hurt...
Geord / Kinako- My back. My back...
When the dust, created by the explosions, dissipates, they realise the dire situation they have found themselves in. They are surrounded by many armed enemies pointing their guns at them. And there's also someone To the far end of this huge underground base, sitting in a chair high up, looking down on them with legs crossed, Zaiaku welcomes them to his "home".
Zaiaku- Beautiful! You spared me the effort to find you! Welcome, Welcome... To your deaths!
They all look at Zaiaku with death glares.
Kinako- Again we meet, Zaiaku... I see you haven't changed one fucking bit...
----------------------------------------------
Meanwhile in the south-western part of the New World, right before the Lingering World's Shrine of the west, Yonuro, Aniik, Ramael, Yulim and Kallian appear out of nowhere from a portal created by the ritual of the Hexagon.
Aniik- Are you all okay?
Yonuro and Ramael have experienced this warping process before and are feeling relatively okay. As of the sister Angels however, their heads are spinning and they almost lose balance after making it to the other side.
Yulim / Kallian- Woah Woah!
Bump* They bump on each other and then caress their aching heads.
"Ouch..."
It takes them a while to fully come to their senses. Seeing how they react, Yonuro and Ramael remember the first time they had undergone the procedure and shiver from this painful feeling. Therefore, they give the sister angels the time they need to fully recover before marching on to Sachrist's Holy Shrine, which lies ahead of them.
Speaking of which, unlike Ramael, Yulim and Kallian have never been to Sachrist's Shrine. They weren't close to him before the creation of the Barrier so they have little to no idea about what his shrine looks like. As a result, when this wondrous building enters their sight, they are awestruck from this unique, watchtower-like Holy Shrine. Especially Kallian, whose Holy Shrine is as dull as ever due to her bad reputation, feels as if they they have arrived to a place they were not meant to ever approach.
This absolute fear from the building's majesty is easily noticable from her stuttering manner of speech.
Kallian- Do-Does Sachrist's Ho-Holy Shrine l-look like this? Th-This is u-unreal and f-frightening...
Aniik- He doesn't hide his selfishness, as you can see. I need no more than two words to describe this man. He is greedy. And selfish.
Kallian- The inside of my shrine gave me claustrophobia at times, but this... You could easily spend your whole life like this, couldn't you? That's so unfair...
Yulim breaks character and gets mad on her sister's behalf.
Yulim- Tsk.. I can't stand looking at it no more. The greatest advocate of Balance, my ass. It was all a joke since the very beginning...
Ramael- His actions are... simply inexcusable...
The tense atmosphere gets more and more tense by the second.
Yonuro gets everyone's frustration even if she served the Barrier for only 2 years. But thinking about what it would feel like to spend 400 years trapped inside a single room, body and mind repurposed to only "save" a World that needs no saving, no she could never understand the depths of their anger. Nevertheless, what she does know is that being angered isn't a solution. What they need to do settle things with Sachrist. They need to stop this craziness from continuing... And now that they know Hisami's location, the path ahead of them has cleared up.
Yonuro- Everyone, let's keep our anger for when we meet Sachrist. We shouldn't vent now. It won't do us any good. We'll pay them a visit and end this madness once and for all!
They all nod and follow Yonuro to the Shrine's large entry door.
After making it before the entrance, however, they are not sure of how to open the door. The Angels' Holy Energies are unable to grant access to a different Angel's Holy Shrine. The identification based around the Holy Energy doesn't match. And there are also no guards to be seen anywhere to get a similar key like last time. But of course, this door is not an obstacle for a squad consisting of a Demonic Lord and 3 (arguably 4) Angels.
Kallian- How do we open--
Yulim- Everybody stand back!
Yulim charges a powerful blast of Holy Energy and utilizes her unmatching strength and precision to fire a horizontal beam of light, so powerful and precise that it pierces through the door as if it was thin air. The amount of damage inflicted in the middle of the door causes a huge shockwave to reach every corner, following the original attack's trajectory, which ends up bursting the door open.
Disintegrated from the generalstructure, the door proceeds to slowly fall towards the inside of the Holy Shrine.
Aniik- Well, that worked out surprisingly well.
Yulim- Come, everyone.
They have all made their first step inside. Except for Yulim and Kallian, they others remember this stunning, majestic interior extremely well. They had spend a long while staring at the beauty of the interior, just like how Yulim and Kallian are now subconsiounly doing.
Kallian- What a huge building... I am in awe...
Yulim- It sure is unreal...
They all wander around the enormous interior and explore. What they need to find is the entrance to the hidden basement beneath, in which Hisami resides.
Yonuro has stumbled upon the elevator once again. It seems like it hasn't been used for a while.
Yulim and Kallian search for a fake wall or a contraption on the walls, but are unsuccessful to find any. Ramael is Yonuro's second set of eyes and tries her best to help her find the basement.
Out of them all, though, Aniik has a head start. Not only is she familiar with the structure of the Holy Shrines, but in the past she had also helped the Accursed create an underground pathway leading directly underneath Ramael's Shrine. She has much more experience over the others and that makes her judgement all the more valid and significant.
Aniik- I think we should look around the "corners". As Yonuro saw in her dream, there is a large spiral staircase that touches the walls at all times and leads to the bottom. A staircase like this cannot originate from the middle blocks of the room, but it can easily start from one of the corner-most points. If Sachrist used a similar method to ours, then there should be a removable chunk of marble in one of the corners of this watchtower-like Shrine.
The others nod after listening to Aniik's plausible idea. The only problem with this is that it's going to take some time to check out each and every corner-most block of marble, due to the structural aspect of this watchtower-like building.
Nevertheless, they find the fake marble block quite easily.
Yonuro- Wait, isn't this it? It's so suspicious-looking.
Indeed the marble tile that Yonuro examined looks different than the others. The edges seem to have been cut deeper than the rest of them and it also has some scratches on top, probably from being used.
They all stop what they were doing and join Yonuro as she attempts to move the suspicious-looking marble tile. Faint gasps leave their mouths when they hear a certain sound coming from the block. It is indeed movable. Movable, but really heavy too.
Yonuro- Fuck, this thing is so heavy. Give me a hand guys.
"How on earth does Sachrist move this chunk of marble all the time?" Yonuro thinks while giving it her all to move the marble tile aside with everyone's help.
In unison- Ahhhhhh!
They finally move the chunk and the first step of the staircase is now visible. After gulping and taking in a few deep breaths, they start descending down this treacherous, old staircase.
So dark is this place that beyond their next step, they cannot see anything except for darkness itself. Not to mention that the steps themselves have been used for hundreds of years and have become susceptible to wear. If they aren't careful enough, they may either trip and fall or break the staircase.
To avoid any of that happening, Ramael decides to use her Veil-like body as a light source. She performs an incantation that changes her distinguishable colour to a bright golden one and assures everyone's safety in this way.
They all thank Ramael briefly and then continue their careful descent. Yonuro leads the way, as she remembers precisely Sachrist's movements from her Vision and she is less likely to do any mistakes. Even though she's seen this exact same place, it gives her the creeps nonetheless.
And this chill that runs down their spines is only going to get worse when they finally make it to the bottom of this abyssal looking room. This long awaited moment. Another chance to defeat Sachrist is here...
The final step is made. No casualties detected. Everything has gone according to plan. Let them cook!
Yonuro- Now, Ramael!
Ramael detaches from Yonuro and uses her bright body to emit a powerful radiant glow to illuminate the whole room in order to expose Hisami's and Sachrist's locations.
Everybody braces themselves and gets ready for a tough fight.
A split second later, however, the need for that completely disappears. The reason for this is straightforward. There's nobody else in the room.
Yulim / Kallian- Where are they?!
Ramael- Where's Sachrist?! He should be here with Hisami!
Yonuro- I don't understand... I saw this exact same room. How can there be nobody in here?!
Aniik takes a few more seconds to analyze the situation and then speaks her mind after making a crucial judgement.
Aniik- For Sachrist, yeah I think he's not here. I'm not so sure about Hisami, though.
"What?" they all think to themselves and watch Aniik move towards an unoccupied bed, next to Sachrist's desk.
"Invisibility techniques, huh?" she utters before summoning her Demonic Self, Zanir.
Aniik- Zanir!
*clink*
Aniik taps her demonic ring and becomes invisible.
Yulim- What is going on?
The invisible Aniik can see through Sachrist's trick, due to her own invisibility.
Aniik- Just as I thought.
Hisami has been revived. Aniik hears her breathing in her sleep. She approaches the invisible Hisami with slow steady steps. Her appearance is that of a slim 15 year old girl with beautiful sparkling, light purple eyes and fine, long blond hair wearing a hairpin in the shape of a blooming white flower. She's just like she read in the old version of the Pandonomicon.
Aniik takes another step forwards, but she is pushed back by a powerful spherical forcefield, surrounding the sleeping Hisami.
Aniik- Ughhh!
Aniik's invisibility is undone and everyone tries to help her out.
"Is everything okay, Aniik? What happened?"
Aniik- I get what's going on... See it for yourselves...
"Zanir! Hunt your prey!"
Aniik powerfully throws her demonic nails at the invisible forcefield. After making impact with it, the nails are unable to move further. They bounce back and fall on the floor. Nevertheless, the damage Aniik's nails do is enough to destroy the invisibility effect of this minature Barrier.
"What on earth?" they all surpisingly say when they see these events unfold.
Yonuro- I-It's her.... Hisami, Sachrist's little sister...
Hisami's bare body, covered in a soft white blanket while sleeping, is revealed. She was there in plain sight, yet noone could see her. The questions arise one after the other
Yulim- She's here alone? Where on earth is Sachrist?
Ramael- What was that forcefield around her?
Kallian- How did she get invisible?
This situation has completely caught everyone off guard. They are all trying to think of possible explanations.
Aniik- I think this forcefield was the reason I was knocked back earlier. It works similarly to the Barrier. It separates the area around Hisami from the outside World. So when I tried to invade that space, I was knocked back by this minature Barrier's effect.
Yonuro- Peculiar... It is safe to assume that Sachrist build this thing to protect his sister from outsiders, not if, but when they would appear. Him being missing though...
Ramael- Sachrist's sudden disappearance makes no sense whatsoever... His one and only want is to save his long gone sister and ensure her a better future, so why does he leave her alone like this? Doesn't he care about her? After doing everything to save her, he abandons her like that? That's absurd!
Sachrist's reasoning doesn't make sense in the surface, indeed. It has far more depth than anyone could ever imagine.
Yulim- I am not surprised to see a monster like him act this way. He is messed up, after all.
"No, that can't be right..." Aniik thinks over and over again.
Aniik- Something's off... I think we're overlooking something...
Aniik wanders around the room in search of hints. Sachrist is the most fearsome and cunning enemy Aniik has ever faced. She knows that everything he does has a meaning and a reason. He is the epitome of precision and perfection. This must be a part of his master plan, as well.
Aniik- Sachrist must have a few aces up his sleeve. One of them I believe is this...
Aniik continues pacing up and down in the room. She sees the open, triple-spiraled sarcophagus. She sees a single book on its last page on Sachrist's old desk. Nothing seems related to his plan though. Aniik keeps on thinking. Eveyone does the same thing as her. They think hard to figure out Sachrist's trick.
Yonuro- The reasonable place to teleport with my Pendant would be here. To make sure Hisami can walk again and then leave together. If that's not the case, then why did he get my Pendant?
Ramael- Maybe to stop the Faith Organization and ensure the Lingering World's safety?
Yulim- I don't think that's the case. He does not care one bit for the New World. On the contrary he helped the World become more of a mess than it already was.
Kallian- That is contradictory though. How is he going to live his remaining life with Hisami if the World is a mess? Him not caring about the World does not add up.
Aniik tries to understand Sachrist's final part of his plan. They need to find the last piece in this cryptic puzzle named Sachrist.
"Sachrist doesn't care about this World's future."
"Sachrist cares about his sister the most"
"Sachrist however leaves her behind and disappears"
"His final destination wasn't his Shrine but somewhere else"
Aniik- Where though? And do what...?
A certain moment of Sachrist's misleading plan pops up in her mind.
*Sachrist- And with the use of this portal we will ambush them first! We will destroy the Demonic Council and end the Demonic Organization!*
Aniik widens her eyes. She is starting to see the whole picture.
Aniik- Hellva....... No. He didn't do that.....
Eveyone gasp after hearing that. Aniik did connect all the dots, but it matters not at present. They were too late.
At that moment, peculiarly enough, a loud voice suddenly echoes in everyone's heads.
Sachrist- Meet me at the top. We need to talk.
Everything shall become clear once they meet him again. They have no other choice but to face him one final time. With trembling eyes they walk up the staircase and then enter the elevator. As they ascend, their doubts are rising by the second. Their hearts are pounding with terror and anxiety.
The final sound the elevator makes is the only thing you can hear in a group of 5 people. This unbearable heavy silence will soon end however.
*Door opens*
There he is. The Angels and Aniik see Sachrist toss a coin up in the air. After catching it again he thinks "This is my final bet." and then greets his old friends for one last time.
Sachrist- Again we meet, dear "friends".
Their doubts are unfortunately.... true. Sachrist looks entirely different. His right eye is imbued with Godly Essence, a mixture of Dark Essence and Holy Energy, and his Angelic Veil has a golden, dark hue to it instead of being white. Sachrist holds in his left hand a certain book, the cover of which has the mystical eye of omniscnence. A godly book named Eternum Horonomicon. It is an undeniable fact that Sachrist has... attained Godhood.
Sachrist- Don't be afraid. If possible I don't want to kill you all. I just wanna talk.
Aniik clenches her hand into a fist, shouts a battle cry and charges at Sachrist.
Aniik- You MONSTER!!!
Sachrist seemlessly blocks the attack. Immediately after, he touches Aniik's forehead and utters the following words "Keep calm".
Sachrist- Off you go.
Aniik calmly goes back to where everyone is standing and keeps her mouth shut.
They all try to comprehend what is happening right now and are unable to say a thing. It all seems surreal. But it is actually the truth. Sachrist has killed his opposed Demonic Lord and become a God-like being with unimaginable abilities and powers.
Sachrist sits in his armchair and makes a gesture for everyone to take a seat, as he wants to have a final discussion with them. Although hesitant, they eventually decide to hear him out one last time and sit in either the couch or the other present chairs.
After taking in a deep breath, Sachrist initiates a deep conversation regarding past and future, freedom and enslavement, life and death. A mostly one-sided conversation, which ends on an unbelievable proposal that leaves everyone speechless once again.
Sachrist- Are you willing to change the World's foundation and help me alter the past?
