We knew there was more than one way a world could[sr]fall to ruin, [bgm BGM_EVENT_79 0.1]just as there is more than one way for[sr]a dream to come to an end.

With the Trees of Emptiness gone, dragging their respective Lostbelts down to the realm of fiction, how will each world dissipate?

＠
Will each merely be snuffed out, like a candle?

In our eternal empire's case,[sr]its undoing began with a lack of observers.

But even as the citizens we had raised to live their lives peacefully did just that, we oversaw everything.
