His body roared with pain because of the countless splinters in his bloody skin. He could feel that a giant woodchip had stabbed into the side of his lower back, but he had no way to rip it out now. He climbed onto his feet as ashes and smoldering debris landed on the street outside. He then kicked his whip off the ground and into his hand as he trudged toward the doorway. His ears were still ringing from the explosion. The blast of blue fire had stained the front half of his body. As soon as he stepped out into the street, he saw a blue glow illuminate the northern side of Sentia. The whole city shook from the explosion. Several hopeless screams echoed across the city walls.
"My whole life has been a continuous reiteration of the same damn message; it's like the universe is trying to beat into me the reality that I'm too weak. It has always been this way. I had the chance to save my mother from the demon, but I was too weak to make it happen. I've been running across the world for years just trying to fight back, but I'm still too weak. I have always been too weak."
"But the strength is waiting inside you. It is time to unleash that strength upon the world. Are you ready?" Madeline asked from the edge of the tempest.

"Then I will become your strength. I will sacrifice myself on the array and set my soul on fire for you. I am the catalyst. You will awaken the Astrodeus."

"I never wanted to be this, and I never meant for anyone to know my pain. But the reality is that this is my destiny just as much as it is yours. I was broken from the very beginning. My purpose was stained on my soul since the day I learned the truth of the Interfecti. If nothing is done, then this whole world will end in tragedy, but I can stop it because I was created in tragedy. Only misery can defeat misery," she whispered.

Hatasuko said nothing as he stepped into the middle of the ashy street. Flaming debris scoured the street around him. Smoke continuously lifted from the dirt and the nearest buildings. A flash of blue light emanated from somewhere in the hopeless city as another scattershot engulfed a crowd of desperate people.
