At the End of the Journey

It's over...
Ever since I first came to NOA, I pictured this moment...
But now that I've really made it, somehow...
It just... doesn't feel real yet.
Maybe it'll sink in tomorrow? Fufu.
...Thank you for guiding me all the way here, Captain.
Here's a thank-you pat!
Even at the end, you're still patting my head...
Fufu. Cheer up, Captain.
Even so, I rely on you more than you think, you know?
I watched her brightened face for a moment.
The one who stands at the end of the [Journey], having endured countless moments of pain and suffering.
There will be more hardships ahead.
But I believe in her.
She'll surpass me one day...
And become the greatest [Savior] of them all.
Her light was so bright... I closed my eyes.
...Congratulations, Savior.
With this, you have passed the final trial of the [Journey].
Shall we head back now?
They are throwing a huge celebration in your honor for [completing the Journey].
...
Savior...?
Yes? Ah...
...
It feels like someone else was here with me...
Like we came all this way together...
Didn't you see anyone else besides me?
...Strange.
There's been no one else but us here from the start.
No.
That can't be. I know someone was here.
Someone I felt like protecting... like looking after...
But who I sometimes wanted to lean on, too...
The one who accepted me exactly as I am.
Savior, I'm not sure what you're talking about.
If this person is as important as you say, he must be someone truly special.
Fufu, yes. You're right.
So could you postpone the party, just for a little?
There's someone I need to find.
All who live will one day part, and all things return to their end...
Every meeting is bound to end in parting.
But I didn't even get to say goodbye properly.
...It's my first time chasing after someone dear, not a criminal.
I am Lyn, the White Moon of the Nature's Grace.
And now... I set out to find you, Captain.
And so, another new starlight ignited.
Its radiant flame was etched into the Archive—a beacon to pierce the endless dark of the cosmos.
Observation complete.
