## Dialogue

 **Dhurahan:** That's...!

 **Laphlaes:** What?!

 **Charles III:** That's the emperor? Does he mean to fight us alone...?

 **Rosanna:** He's sure got some confidence...

 **Kartis:** You've finally come.

 **"Lord":** Kartis.

 **Kartis:** Rival...

 **"Lord":** What were you thinking?! What caused you to do all this...?

 **Kartis:** I cannot say. Not yet.

 **"Lord":** Just talk! Why didn't you say anything up until now?!

 **Kartis:** Members of the anti-imperial alliance, I'm going to test your worthiness.

 **Rosanna:** Hah, worthiness?

 **Kartis:** Prove yourself. Prove that you are capable of destroying this loop of despair, capable of setting right the flow of this world.

 **"Lord":** We'll do just that.

 **Kartis:** Surpass me, rival.

 **Kartis:** Ha ha ha...! You did wonderfully, my rival.

 **"Lord":** What were you thinking, Kartis?!

 **Kartis:** That was the last piece of the puzzle... Now I can give to you all of my impact in its entirety. I've done... everything I could.

 **"Lord":** What are you talking about?!

 **Mu:** Master, all preparations are complete.

 **"Lord":** Mu... You mean the synchronization process you mentioned before?

 **Mu:** Yes. The Chronicles had been fragmented, but will now be merged. Permit me to synchronize with Lambda, Model #11.

 **"Lord":** Right now...? If you sync, will you... remain you?

 **Mu:** The subject Mu and the subject Lambda will fuse together.
An entity's unique consciousness may be used to define its identity. This is an entirely different concept from an entity's expansion through fusion.

 **"Lord":** I, I don't understand...

 **Mu:** It's okay, Master. I will always be with you.

 **"Lord":** \*sigh\*... Okay. You have my permission then.

 **Mu:** User permission confirmed for system restore via complete synchronization. Initiating unity protocol.

 **Kartis:** Lambda...

 **Cesaire:** Ha ha... so this is what it's come to, is it?

 **"Lord":** Cesaire!

 **Cesaire:** You must have been frustrated, Your Majesty. Trying to enact all your plans in secret for so long... That must have been difficult.

 **Kartis:** \*sigh\*...

 **Cesaire:** Tired of playing the puppet's role, are you? It makes sense. It's been going on for a very long time, no? Watching your meaningless struggle was so very, very... fun. I loved it, heh heh.

 **Kartis:** It was a very long time... But now it's time for that to end, Cesaire.

 **Cesaire:** Ha ha... I served you faithfully all along, doing everything you asked of me. Now it looks as though I will have to disobey you for the first time...

 **"Lord":** Try it if you want. I won't let things go the way you hope they will.

 **Cesaire:** Monarch of Avillon, you really didn't disappoint me. I had no idea you would make it this far... All so I could enjoy myself to the fullest. Your performance has truly been splendid.

 **"Lord":** Knights, get ready to battle!

 **Kartis:** Cesaire...

 **Cesaire:** Ha ha ha... How wonderful.

 **"Lord":** It's over, Cesaire. Whatever you were hoping for, you won't be getting it.

 **Cesaire:** Yes... I suppose it was... a futile dream...

 **"Lord":** It's time to return everything back to its natural order.

 **Cesaire:** Ha ha... Yes...

 **???:** It's time for you to return.

 **"Lord":** What...?!

 **???:** Return to the fate I've given you... to the cage I've made for you. It's time to go back, right?

 **Fram:** H-Highness... What's goin' on?!

 **"Lord":** Knights, get ready!

 **Pandemonium:** Delightful... How utterly delightful.

 **"Lord":** The space around us...

 **Fram:** What the heck...?!

 **"Lord":** Cesaire... Is this your true form...?

 **Pandemonium:** Ha ha ha! I told you, didn't I? I love the sight of moths like you, flocking to a beam of light shining amidst despair... ...Only to be burned alive within its flame.

 **"Lord":** What in the world are you?

 **Pandemonium:** I have many names, but for now let's just say I'm your despair, ha ha ha! I don't normally like revealing myself like this, but given the circumstances, I suppose I can play the role of the insurmountable wall for you. It's good for me to do this sort of thing sometimes... It's been millennia since I've shown this form to anyone. You should be proud of yourselves.

 **"Lord":** What're you doing this for?

 **Pandemonium:** Why, isn't it obvious? All my toys have broken, so I need to start over and get new ones.

 **"Lord":** We're not your toys!

 **Pandemonium:** Oh, but you are. I'll have you know, I'm quite sad about this. I really enjoyed our playtime. But it's okay. Every beginning has an end, and every end leads to a new beginning, heh heh... Your end will serve as the makings of a new beginning for me. It's been fun.

 **Mu:** Master.

 **"Lord":** Mu! We're in the middle of something big—

 **Mu:** I know. I stopped time just for a short while. I cannot keep it stopped for long. I have a message. Endure for just a little longer, just a little more. Synchronization is almost complete.

 **"Lord":** Once it finishes, will we have some way to stop her?

 **Mu:** Yes. All possibilities will be come together, even from nonexistent worlds. When that happens, you will understand how to overcome this threat.

 **"Lord":** Okay... We'll do all we can.

 **Mu:** Use all you have at your disposal. There is hope.

 **"Lord":** Understood. Thank you, Mu. Knights, you can do this! Fight like it's your last battle! Give it your all!

 **Pandemonium:** I enjoyed watching you struggle...

 **Fram:** Highness!

 **Pandemonium:** It was fun while it lasted!

 **"Lord":** I'm sorry, everyone...

 **Mu:** Unity protocol complete. Merging all timelines. Initiate.

 **Pandemonium:** Hm?

 **Johan:** Are you okay, Your Highness?

 **"Lord":** Johan...? Is that really you...?

 **Johan:** I heard your call.... Exelion Barrage!

 **Johan:** I told you... You will always have my unwavering loyalty.

 **Pandemonium:** Hah... You merged... the timelines? Brought them all together?

 **Mu:** The synchronization is complete, Master.

 **"Lord":** What is this...?

 **Mu:** I tied together all the bonds you've forged up until now. It was only possible with the impact Kartis gave you.

 **"Lord":** Kartis...

 **Kartis:** This is the last chance we have.

 **"Lord":** Did you know this would happen?

 **Kartis:** I knew I had to give up everything to make it work. Let's go, rival.

 **Pandemonium:** I hadn't anticipated you would struggle this much... That will only make it... All the more satisfying when I crush you beneath my heel!

 **"Lord":** Charge, my knights!

 **Lucilicca:** Needle Shot!

 **Fram:** It's about to get real!

 **Lairei:** Raging Firestorm!

 **Pandemonium:** Ha ha ha! Ready to make one last-ditch effort, are you? You're keeping this fun until the very end...

 **Kartis:** Hah!

 **Pandemonium:** Ack... Wonderful... What a beautiful ending... Albeit not quite to my liking, ha ha...

 **"Lord":** Is it over now...?

 **Kartis:** It is. The cycle... is finally... over.

 **Fram:** Johan...

 **Johan:** Fram...

 **Fram:** I... remember. You're Johan. Johan. Johan. I remember everything now! Johan...

 **"Lord":** ...
