(Today's the day. The day we fulfill our duties to our lady.)

Everything I've done up to this point has been for her. No doubt Dodge feels the same. Well, maybe not to the same degree. He holds her in the highest regard. He has chosen to dedicate himself to his duty. I, on the other hand, love her. I would do anything for our lady. I've given up my true form for her. I've dedicated my life to looking for the ideal body that will appeal to her. I've given myself to this mission to create a revolution that will aid her. I've put up with that Hunter person solely because Hunter promises our actions will help our lady. It's all for her.

I return to the apartment building where Dodge is keeping all of our research documents. Now that our lab has been sacrificed, this has been our base for the time being. I open the door and see Dodge, again, playing that game of his.

"Dodge, it's time."

He looks up from his game and puts the system on a nearby desk. For whatever reason, he's leaving it on.

"I plan to get back to it. I'm not at a good save point."

(Same old Dodge.)

"Worry not, little brother. We will get through this."

He gets up and extends his hand out to me.

"Together."

I take his hand.

"For Lady Sutoria's sake." I say.

"For everyone's sake."
