Dialogue
*Continuing where Convergence (Part 1) left off, you and your dragon become alarmed that Hesperrhodos touches Jaania's chest.*
Jaania: Our hopes... as one...!
Jaania: Full synchronization!
*Jaania fully synchronizes with Hesperrhodos, creating a new merged form; to aid Jaania in battle, Hesperrhodos gives a tome and a glaive for her to wield; her full synchronization with Hesperrhodos concludes with a spirit scar on her face and a spectral form of The Rose's insignia are created on her body.*
Jaania: Such... completeness.
*The fully synched Jaania blasts you, Alteon, and Amadeus with ice magic, while your dragon flies to evade her attack; Aegis appears to protect you from her attack; Jaania's attack causes Alteon and Amadeus to be exhausted.*
Jaania: Enemies of my perfect world, you will fall.
Alteon: Looks like... this one's up to you, <Character>.
Amadeus: Do not fail.
<Character>: ...
<Character>: Uh... Aegis? You don't suppose...
Aegis: Sorry, <Character>. That last attack took quite a bit out of me.
Aegis: Probably best if I focus on making sure your soul stays safe!
Aegis: But I know you can handle this.
Aegis: You're my weaver, after all.
*Aegis leaves; after he leaves, he creates a small barrier to you in order to protect your soul; your eye moves at your dragon.*
<Character>: Just you and me then, <Dragon>.
<Dragon>: We don't need anyone else! | *Mighty roar!*
Jaania: I gave you a chance to turn away.
Jaania: I gave you a chance to join me.
Jaania: It seems my world will have to do without you.
*Annoyed, your dragon blasts a small fireball at Jaania.*
<Dragon>: Don't you dare threaten my human like that! | *Protective growl...*
<Character>: Come on, <Dragon>. Let's finish this!
Battle! - begins battle with Jaania.
Battle! EXTREME - begins battle with Jaania (Extreme).
Battle (Easy) - begins battle with Jaania (Easy).
Heal - fully replenishes HP, MP, and potions.
Run Away! - returns to Outpost Yeden.
*After defeating the fully synched Jaania, she falls to her knees, returning back to normal; however, due to her extensive use of weaving magic, more of her hair, if not most, turns white.*
Jaania: Enough!
Jaania: Enough...
Jaania: You win.
<Character>: ...
Jaania: But my dream... my world...
<Character>: Jaania...
<Character>: You don't need to control the flow of magic to protect people.
<Character>: Even if you can't save everyone, you can still—
*As Jaania tries to move, she becomes more exhausted from her battle.*
Jaania: ...
*Warlic casts a blue fireball to blast Akanthus, only for Akanthus to block it with his sword; it appears that Warlic, Zvezdana, and Alexander's battle against Akanthus causes them to become exhausted.*
Amadeus: So, <Character> proves victorious.
Zvezdana: I will secure Jaania.
<Character>: Zvezdana, she's already defeated. Don't...
Zvezdana: If I thought she was still a threat, I would have already dealt with her as such.
Zvezdana: Look at her. Drained of mana, barely able to stand, much less cast a spell. I will not harm her unless she tries to escape.
*Zvezdana runs toward the exhausted Jaania; scene pans left to Alteon.*
Alteon: Then that just leaves...
*As Zvezdana heals Jaania, Akanthus walks toward her.*
Jaania: Akanthus—
Akanthus: I am disappointed, Jaania.
Akanthus: I believed in your strength.
*Alexander casts a fireball at Akanthus' pauldron, to no avail.*
Akanthus: I had faith in your plan.
Akanthus: And I was wrong.
*As the exhausted Amadeus looks at Akanthus, Alteon charges toward Akanthus.*
Alteon: I won't let—
*However, as Alteon charges toward him, Akanthus turns around and stabs him with his sword.*
<Character>: ALTEON!
<Character>: Akanthus, stop!
Akanthus: Jaania has failed. However...
*Akanthus looks at the Doom device—the main component of his contingency plan if Jaania's plan fails.*
Akanthus: My plan has much less room for error.
*Akanthus carries the Doom device with both hands.*
Akanthus: Goodbye.
*Akanthus drops from the Scaffold's lift with the Doom device in tow; this causes you and your allies to be alarmed; scene pans to focus on you.*
<Character>: We have to go after him!
<Character>: Come on, <Dragon>! Time to titanize! We're flying down there! | There has to be a way we can follow him!
<Dragon>: I... I can't seem to do it... it's like there's something squishing me... | *Strained dragon noises*
Warlic: The proximity to the Mana Core must be interfering with <Dragon>'s abilities. | There must be a way to go after Akanthus... but...
<Character>: Isn't there anything we can do?
Warlic: I'm nearing my limit as it is. If I were to try to fly even closer to the Core itself...
Warlic: It would put more than just Lore at risk, as you know.
Alteon: What... What could you even do? He's gone.
Alteon: Surely it's too late...
<Character>: The world hasn't ended yet!
<Character>: If there's a chance we can stop Akanthus, I'll take it!
Warlic: Hmm...
Warlic: ...I could try to funnel some excess mana to <Dragon>...
<Dragon>: I just need... a little more... | *Focused dragon rumbles*
*Carrying the wounded Alteon, Amadeus assesses your situation with your dragon.*
Amadeus: <Dragon> needs to titanize, right?
Amadeus: I can assist with that.
<Character>: Amadeus?
*Leaving the wounded Alteon behind, Amadeus looks at your dragon, preparing to assist it.*
Amadeus: Blue Mage, <Character>, we will do this together. | Blue Mage, we will do this together.
Warlic: Certainly, but, er...
Amadeus: It will all be up to you, <Character>, <Dragon>.
*Amadeus holds his Dragon Amulet; your expression turns to surprise upon learning that Amadeus has a Dragon Amulet.*
<Character>: I—
<Character>: Of course! I understand.
<Character>: I'm ready!
<Dragon>: Yeah! We can do this! | *Determined roar*
*Amadeus closes his eyes to focus.*
Amadeus: Now!
*Amadeus uses the power of his Dragon Amulet to transfer its power to your dragon while Warlic funnels the excess mana to your dragon; if the player owns a Dragon Amulet, you also use the power of your Dragon Amulet to your dragon; this collaboration causes your dragon to titanize, giving the enough strength needed to pursue Akanthus.*
<Dragon>: Yes! That's just what I needed! | *Proud, titan-sized, roar!*
Warlic: That should be enough for a return trip, so long as <Dragon> conserves their energy.
<Character>: Amadeus... Warlic... Thank you.
<Character>: We'll find a way to stop Akanthus. I promise.
Warlic: And we'll be waiting. But... if things start to look bad...
Alexander: <Character> can take care of <himself/herself/themselves>.
Alexander: Stop wasting time and get down there!
<Character>: Right.
<Character>: <Dragon>! To the Mana Core!
*You run toward and ride with your dragon; now you in tow, your dragon flies above; this causes the Scaffold's lift to move briefly; after a brief second, your titanized dragon goes below the Scaffold's lift before the scene shifts to black.*
