- Plot Recap

Vice:	You, don't you think about getting away, either!
Angel:	Nice! That should clear the bridge up!
Vice:	You're getting better at coordinating us, Navigator!
Navigator:	It's obvious that both my mind and skills have greatly improved today.
Vice:	I wonder how the fights are going elsewhere?
Navigator:	How much longer do you need, Soroz?
Soroz:	The generator is starting. Keep your footing. To the sky!

Navigator:	We're flying?!
Vice:	Whoa, I almost fell off! We're so high up!! Are we flying?! Hold on to something, everyone!
Navigator:	That's my hair, Vice!
Soroz:	Oh, the sky! It's been so long... I still remember the last time, that bloody night... I wish to continue speeding up, Navigator!
Navigator:	Be my guest, Soroz! By all means, soar! Let's fly full throttle! We've even thrown off the Eclipsites!
Soroz:	Gladly! Let's soar across the great skies once more!
Illumina Squad Captain:	What's this vibration, Vice?
Vice:	I was just going to call you! We're in the air!
Illumina Squad Captain:	Really? That's wonderful! I was worried... it might be too late...
Vice:	Too late? What happened? Are you guys okay?
Illumina Squad Captain:	A behemoth barged in and we couldn't stop it. We lost so many... It's headed straight for the bridge. It's definitely a high-level Eclipsite... Sorry...
Vice:	A more powerful foe? Stay alert, everyone, it's not over yet!
Dove:	Brr... Why did the temperature suddenly drop? So cold...
Vice:	Not temperature, Dove. That's the sensation of Darkflow... The enemy is here, everyone.
Nozard:	You dopes managed to get this casket to fly. No matter, time for your demise!
Vice:	Another high-level Eclipsite?
Nozard:	I have a name, Aurorian. You may call me Nozard. It was bestowed by Mother herself. Remember my name, for it will guide you to the Truth on the Other Side!
Navigator:	How come this Eclipsite can talk? What is this "Mother" or "Truth" nonsense that you speak of?
Vice:	Don't bother, Navigator! Very few Eclipsites speak Universese, so this one seems kinda off!
Nozard:	Tch! We even learned Universese to enlighten Aurorians, but to no avail. Pests will be pests... I've paid enough respect to the soon-to-be dead. Now... It's time to die.

You must be referring to yourself!

Get ready to fight, everyone!

Nozard:	How dare you hurt me! Enough! I had planned to spare you, but it's difficult to subdue a pest without killing it! You handed me a tough task, Master Schummer.
Navigator:	Schummer!? That's the name from that dream! Where did you hear it from and who is she?
Nozard:	I see you're not completely in the dark about what happened back then, Caelestite... But so what? All of your people all died in our hands. Are you truly satisfied living out this empty existence alone?
Navigator:	What... did you say?
Nozard:	What a strange question. I believe you heard me clearly. Your people, they're all dead. Eraveil no longer exists. A sea of fire and frenzied screams. Bodies crushed, one by one... And then discarded.
Navigator:	No... No... It can't be.

Navigator:	Impossible...
Vice:	Enough, Eclipsite! What do you know!?
Nozard:	I was there. We all were... Who could afford to miss such a grand event? Just like how one day we'll break through the Aurorians' defenses and present you with the same gift of annihilation.
Vice:	Navigator, don't believe that Eclipsite!
Nozard:	It doesn't really matter if you believe me or not. You're all going to die anyway.
Illumina Squad Captain:	You won't succeed! Urgh!
Nozard:	Fool! You could have lived, but you have chosen death! So your brilliant plan is to recklessly charge at me, just to be squashed under my feet?
Illumina Squad Captain:	Yes it is if it's for planting a bomb, you numbskull!
Nozard:	Why you...!
Illumina Squad Captain:	See you in hell, moron.
Vice:	Wait—!!
Soroz:	Navigator! There's been a breach in your vicinity! Proceed with caution!
Nozard:	The pressure! I can't hold on much longer!
Illumina Soldier:	Captain!
Vice:	Don't move! Hold my hand before you're sucked out! Why did it turn out like this? We were so close!
Navigator:	An explosion? Don't tell me, did that Aurorian...? Those ashes earlier... could it be...?
Soroz:	Calm down, Navigator! Your mind is wavering...
Navigator:	And in my memory... The bodies of my people... All dead... They're all dead? What about outside Eraveil, and beyond the continent? Am I really the last Caelestite?
Soroz:	Your heartbeat is rising! Be careful not to push yourself too much again!
Navigator:	Stop messing with me!
Nozard:	The Colossus is speeding up! I can't hold on any longer... What have you done, Caelestite? I'm losing my grip...
Navigator:	It can't be...
Vice:	Navigator, lower your head!
Nozard:	Gaah!
