With fingers dancing across the strings, the bard weaves a soft saga in a murmured song.

33-2 A Never-Ending Winter

The enemy ahead is not only frozen rock but also melting ice caverns.

33-3 Sink Silently Into the Sea

The brown and white can no longer be seen on the plains. Beneath a cloudless sky, the red waves are marching triumphantly.

33-4 Cradlesong

Mournful and elusive, the melody drifts like an antique rite, silencing the entire raucous camp.

Perhaps another tributary of fate's river could've guided her into a more serene future.

Their story comes to an end like what she once saw in the Ascension-Network.

Wonderful reactions occur each time an old tale is added with new variables. Such changes always bring me delight.

A torch, flickering with crimson-gold flames that light up the land in an instant, is hoisted aloft like a runner's baton.

33-12 Firewood

I will bring back new firewood myself to stoke the flame of human civilization.

33-13 Another Choice

Perhaps this could be another choice for you and this civilization.

33-14 High Wall

Time stalls in this moment, where sunlight freezes atop the pine treetops and the cold wind ceases to blow. Will you raise high walls, or venture into the unknown?

33-15 Ominous Sparks

Then... Good luck, Gray Ravens...

33-16 Stairs at the Edge

Her gaze is always locked here.

33-17 Spiral Tower

Whether to become an Observer or to stay forever in the Hetero Tower, take a moment to rest... at least for now.

33-18 Gravekeeper

Human civilization has been branded with the Punishing Virus. Whether you choose me or return to the sea, nothing could be worse than it is now.

33-19 At the Cost of Life

We will seek our path, even at the cost of everything.

33-20 Dangerous Place

Even though people seek their path through death, a part of them still hopes to endure life and see tomorrow.

Her completeness is beyond my imagination. Probably something unexpected has happened.

33-22 Lone Shadow in Corridor

Raise your head before the mirror. Tell me, Commandant of Gray Raven, who are you truly?

33-23 Death Reenactment

Fervently eyeing the agent like a butterfly specimen, Cradle suddenly seems to have lost interest in everything else.

33-24 Gazing From Above

Countless years of "information" amassed by the Hetero Tower flow ceaselessly into the M.I.N.D. Civilizations lament the final requiem in sorrowful song.

33-25 Four-Winged White Raven

At the center of the "buildings" with varied exteriors stands a colossal four-winged white raven.

33-26 Heat Death in Time

Heat death is but a hypothesis, a construct of fiction, a distant catastrophe that will never truly arrive.

33-27 The Punisher

The "Punisher" is the "Agent Zero" belonging to the Four-Winged White Raven.

33-28 Double Spirals

As long as Commandant and Nanami keep pushing forward, we'll surely reach the day of victory someday!

33-29 Annihilation

A faint will flickers like a dying spark in a murky M.I.N.D.

33-30 Gear

This may cost her dearly, but a civilization like this deserves a future worth hoping for.

33-31 Gift from the Stars

The shooting star carrying the information will travel back in time, heading to its destination.

33-32 Vision at Dawn

...What choice will humanity make this time?

33-33 Lucia

It's alright... After this, we still have a long time ahead...
