## Unlock Method

**Prerequisites**:

* Story entry VS-8 must be unlocked and read.
* Pentiment and Arcana Eden must be unlocked.

Unlocks
Testify, Story Entry F-5, Entry F-6, ability to replay past Anomaly/Terminal events
Testify is unlocked through Axiom of the End, and requires the completion of the following challenges:

**Mobile:**
1. **Retrace our journey**: Clear one song from each of the four versions of the game (1.X -> 2.X -> 3.X -> 4.X), in order.
2. **Take her hand**: Favorite all available Tairitsu partners (including event and album partners) in the partner select menu, then use one of them to clear a Conflict side song featuring *only* Tairitsu on the song jacket.
3. **Contemplate finality**: Leave your device open and unlocked on the Axiom of the End lobby screen *(not Testify's objectives)* for 4 minutes.

Note: Once this has been done, the challenge will be completed on all difficulties regardless of the selected difficulty.
4. **Transcend your limit**: Play any song and clear with a play rating higher than your current potential.
**Switch:**
1. **Retrace our journey**: Clear 1 Main Story song per 4 packs, in order.

Note: This requires playing a song from Eternal Core *OR* Vicious Labyrinth *OR* Luminous Sky, then a song each from Adverse Prelude, Black Fate, and Final Verdict in that order, without failing.
2. **Take her hand**: Favorite each Tairitsu, clear Her song with Her.

Note: The second part of this requires using any Tairitsu variant to clear a Conflict side song featuring *only* Tairitsu on the song jacket.
3. **Contemplate finality**: Watch Axiom of the End from above for 4 minutes.

Note: This requires the Switch to be left open on the Axiom of the End lobby screen *(not Testify's objectives)* for 4 minutes. Once this has been done, the challenge will be completed on all difficulties regardless of the selected difficulty.
4. **Transcend your limit**: Play a song that is above your Potential.

Note: This requires clearing a song with a play rating higher than your current Potential.

Once these have been completed, a red gauge will appear under the center hexagon. This gauge is depleted by clearing four songs with alternating sides and partners, starting with Light/Hikari: by playing a Light side song with any Hikari partner, then a Conflict side song with any Tairitsu partner, then repeating that process once again. If the player has successfully cleared a song that matches these conditions, the "Axiom of the End" screen will appear after leaving the result screen, and the red gauge will drain by about 25%.

After draining the gauge completely, attempting to play Testify will display the following message:

**Warning**

You are at the point of no return.

Proceeding will make a decision that you can not reverse.

Opting to press the Continue button will play story Entry F-5, followed by Testify. When playing Testify for the first time, the Fatalis Gauge is used. However, like when unlocking Arcahv, it is impossible to get a Track Lost; the Recollection Rate will simply become negative if it falls below the fatal threshold.

After finishing, story Entry F-6 will play, then the credits will roll, and the game will return to the title screen. Testify, Hikari (Fatalis) and story Entry F-7 will be permanently unlocked, along with the ability to replay past Anomaly and Irruption events when their conditions are met.

## Lyrics

Game version
Darkest night, I'll confront you here....

Such a destiny was not desired.

In this place, I never wished to see that side of you.

And raise different colors for one another.

Never notice me.

Never call my name with your voice.

Let me forget everything, still moonlight shines on us.

Broken heart, I don't want you to find and take a look at.

So I'll sin more and destroy my thoughts, make a mess of my hand.

I swear on the darkest night I'll end it all.

And testify....

All that I'm left with is your reminiscences.

Take me to where you are, won't you?

Till then I'll keep struggling.

Curse of justice you don't know.

Lyrics: void (Mournfinale)

Darkest night, I'll confront you here....

Such a destiny was not desired.

In this place, I never wished to see that side of you.

And raise different colors for one another.

Never notice me.

Never call my name with your voice.

Let me forget everything and leave no trace of you.

What am I carrying out in this horizon of despair?

If it's not you, I can hurt anyone in the name of justice.

Your shadow gets in the way of my light.

And testify....

Let me forget everything, still moonlight shines on us.

Broken heart, I don't want you to find and take a look at.

So I'll sin more and destroy my thoughts, make a mess of my hand.

I swear on the darkest night I'll end it all.

And testify....

All that I'm left with is your reminiscences.

Take me to where you are, won't you?

Till then I'll keep struggling.

Curse of justice you don't know.

## Trivia

* Testify is labelled as a **Fatal Choice** song in lowiro's reveal tweet, distinguishing it from Anomaly and Terminal songs.
* The small text in Testify's jacket illustration reads "A FATAL DECISION".
* The charter aliases for Past, Present, and Future reference the story packs Eternal Core, Adverse Prelude, and Black Fate respectively.
	+ The Beyond charter alias references and serves as foreshadowing for Silent Answer.
* This song has an unused Axiom of the End placeholder cell (right). As this song's cell is assigned a hardlocked position in Axiom of the End which is always rendered, this was likely used for testing before a final cell was conceived.
* This song is the first song to:
	+ Be a Colorless side song.
	+ Have difficulty ratings of **Past 7** and **Beyond 12**. This is also the only song to do so.
	+ Introduce crosshands in patterns that require four fingers, and also the first to introduce a pattern that requires five fingers in a non-April Fools' chart.
	+ Have its "Anomaly" effects triggerable even when the game is started offline. This is most likely because the game only checks if Hikari (Fatalis) is Sealed and is the currently selected partner once Testify is played.
* The Beyond chart for Testify has the highest number of notes out of all charts in Arcaea, at 2221 notes.
* Upon the release of mobile v4.0.0, a purple progress gauge displaying a percentage appeared in place of the red gauge, where the percentage reading was identical for all players worldwide. The progress bar was drained at 7 Jul 2022, 01:00 PM UTC. All players who completed the four unlock conditions after this time saw the red gauge instead.
