Kallen

You were... created as the second vessel to seal the Herrscher in place of Sakura.

🔇 N/A

Kasumi

The second... vessel...

🔇 N/A

Kallen

I sealed Sakura myself and decided to protect the land in her stead.

🔇 N/A

Kallen

The Deva rune kept me alive for over 500 years. But Sakura's body has decayed and fallen apart.

🔇 N/A

Kasumi

But... she looks perfectly fine right now.

🔇 N/A

Kallen

It's just an appearance. Her body would have crumbled long ago, if not for Frozen Naraka.

🔇 N/A

Kallen

A Herrscher host must be highly adaptable to Honkai energy. And in Yae Machi, the Yae family are the only ones.

🔇 N/A

Kasumi

So... you made me.

🔇 N/A

Kallen

Yes, you were grown from Sakura's active cells.

🔇 N/A

Kallen

I was shaken up when I first saw you.

🔇 N/A

Kallen

You two look too much alike, and I hate to send you onto the same path as hers.

🔇 N/A

Kasumi

...

🔇 N/A

Kallen

But it's too late. With everyone in Yae Machi at stake, I couldn't abort the plan even if I wanted.

🔇 N/A

Kallen

On the sixth night after you were born, I put on a mask and stole you from the underground lab in the castle.

🔇 N/A

Kasumi

What...

🔇 N/A

Kallen

I couldn't keep you around. Your fox ears are too much of a risk anywhere in Yae Machi.

🔇 N/A

Kallen

In the end, I had to turn to the last man I wanted help from, to send you to Europe under Schicksal's protection.

🔇 N/A

Kasumi

He taught me the way of survival, but never looked me in the eye.

🔇 N/A

Kallen

I owe him more than I can pay back, but I can never forgive the things he did... But now, I feel like a hypocrite.

🔇 N/A

Kallen

After you, every other vessel made for the same purpose failed to survive.

🔇 N/A

Kallen

It gave me an excuse to shut down the plan and start a new plan.

🔇 N/A

Kasumi

Is it... the soul transfer experiment?

🔇 N/A

Kallen

Right, if I can somehow salvage Sakura's soul from the collapsing shell... Ugh...

🔇 N/A

Kallen

...No... My body... Aaaaaaah....

🔇 N/A

Kasumi

Kallen!

🔇 N/A

Kallen

...Watch out... for the Preta ghoul...

🔇 N/A

< The screen goes black, then switches to the castle, where the Captain will have control of Yae Sakura's [Darkbolt Jonin] battlesuit. >

< Defeat the enemies. >

< Enemies defeated. >

Kasumi

Huh, it's finally fading... Are you alright, Kallen?

🔇 N/A

Kallen

...Yes... barely...

🔇 N/A

Kasumi

Was that...

🔇 N/A

Kallen

Ugh, you're right. It's the Preta rune out of control.

🔇 N/A

Kasumi

Almost like the Demonic Seed that showed up from nowhere and fade away in a flash. A monster from an alien world.

🔇 N/A

Kallen

That's probably true.

🔇 N/A

Kallen

When the Preta rune runs wild, the space would twist and twirl. The monsters may very well come from other worlds.

🔇 N/A

Kallen

I don't have much time left.

🔇 N/A

Kasumi

Then why don't you hand me the rune now?

🔇 N/A

Kallen

Sorry, Kasumi, not now. I can't give it to you yet.

🔇 N/A

Kallen

There's something I have to do first.

🔇 N/A

Kasumi

Kallen, are you trying to...

🔇 N/A

Kallen

We cannot wipe out the Herrscher's blind rage, and that's why we have to seal it in a human vessel.

🔇 N/A

Kallen

But if I can make this Preta rune go fully berserk, there might be a way to use the twisted space...

🔇 N/A

Kasumi

Are you saying... you want to send the Herrscher's will to another world? But doing so...

🔇 N/A

Kallen

People in the other world may suffer?

🔇 N/A

Kasumi

...

🔇 N/A

Kallen

I'm tired, Kasumi. The most important thing I've learned over the past centuries is how weak I am.

🔇 N/A

Kallen

Before that, I was the ace Valkyrie of Schicksal, and I never doubted Honkai would end in my generation.

🔇 N/A

Kallen

I hate the crimes Schicksal committed in the name of fighting Honkai.

🔇 N/A

Kallen

But I can't protect Sakura, nor you. Even with the borrowed 500 years, I can only end it in the dumbest way.

🔇 N/A

Kallen

Without power, justice only invites despair. And the kindness of leaving no one behind is but weakness in disguise.

🔇 N/A

Kallen

I'm just a mortal who is slightly stronger than average, and I'm now taking my last breath to protect my place.

🔇 N/A

Kasumi

...Even though this means people will die where you can't see?

🔇 N/A

Kallen

I can't even stop the wailing close at hand. How can I reach out to the people in need far far away?

🔇 N/A

???

Hahahahah, quite an amusing confession.

🔇 N/A

Kasumi

Who is there?!

🔇 N/A

???

Use the rampant rune to send me into another world? So that's your pathetic solution?

🔇 N/A

Kallen

This voice... Why...

🔇 N/A

Kallen

How could it be...
