The space crumbles in an instant as twisted time and space blend into disordered rhythms, alternating through chaotic tracks to create a symphony without structure.
Nebulae spin into disrupted shapes as your dimensional perception gradually blurs. You can no longer discern how long the battle here has lasted—is it one second? Or ten thousand years?
You stand alone, facing the vast cosmic domain yet showing no trace of fear.
Commandant...
Commandant...
Commandant?
[player name]...
You have never been alone.
Failing again and again, yet rising each time, all M.I.N.D.s once connected with your Mind Beacon converge into a faint light—
The frail spark has already set the world ablaze.
Countless pasts and futures overlap as bonds and causality envelop you. Innumerable failures pile corpses into towering monuments, only to crumble into sand under time's destructive force.
Battles from the past come sweeping back with earth-shattering force, horrific wounds accumulating one after another in both flesh and spirit.

COMMANDANT<//WE> The shadow of the past returned in the dead of night.
Fight, in this battle endless and infinite.
In the eternal stillness of the long night, you raise your gun against the higher-dimensional being amid the sea of stars.
Gunpowder smoke fills the air as deeper fears, accompanied by mournful cries, are crushed and scattered around you.
COMMANDANT<//WE> The crimson light pierced through the sky's dome.
COMMANDANT<//WE> The corrupted forest whispered of an unknown lifeform.

Live against death.
"Even so... Do you still wish to continue?"
I can overcome anything with you and Gray Raven by my side, just like always.
Faith and courage flow ceaselessly from your Mind Beacon.
Faith and courage flow ceaselessly from your Mind Beacon.
Humanity will never fall here.
In the timeless quiet, you rise anew, infinite hues ablaze in the depths of your gaze.
On the distant horizon, stars emerge and perish within a dazzling explosion, stardust fragments raining down in glittering splendor.
At the boundary between life and death, you stare directly at the being whose form defies description.
"I saw it..."
The voice of the universe echoes hollow and pale.
"I saw your will."
Lee takes aim at the unknown being, his finger pressing the trigger with a resolute click.
Lucia shadows close behind, springing up in a single leap as her blade slices toward the silhouette.
Liv's fingers clench around her scepter as a domain of power unfurls—
"BANG"—
It all ends with a gunshot from your hands.
The higher-dimensional being wipes away her "wound" and sheds her disguise.
...
A lingering sigh resonates through the void as this prolonged "battle" at last concludes beneath the united onslaught of four people.
The Observer slowly ceases her movements as her "projection" begins to dissipate.
Endless exhaustion floods your brain. Your consciousness is plunged into searing seawater in an instant—so scalding that not even a whisper can escape your vocal cords.
Your eyes slowly close within the suffocating darkness as large patches of vibrant colors flash across your retinas.
Rage, helplessness, joy, fear, agony—countless emotions erupt simultaneously in your mind as infinite specks of light gradually reconstruct everything here...
Until all returns to stillness.
"The moment they reach the unopened door in their bodies of flesh and blood—"
"You did it, human."
