Okay, that should be the last of the code.

...

Doesn't get easier, huh?

This is the thirteenth time we're doing this to a fucking fetus.

How many times is the Empress gonna do this, all for the fucking Aster Ion? It's sickening!

Keep your voice down.

I just... I'm so sick of it. I keep looking at this one and... I just feel bad. Like I'm consigning this child to a horrible fate.

I....

I feel the same w- Gah! M-my queen! I... we...

Leave. Both of you.

Empress T-

Leave.


My boy.
My... darling boy.
You embody the hope for our people.
The hope for me.
I have gone through...
so, so much
to have you.

...

My Asterion.
You will live.
And together...
We will bring the Stars of Heaven down to our World.
Together...
We will
ascend.
