At the End of the Journey

Dana

Whew... I barely passed.

Dana

All those struggles finally paid off!

You did well, Dana.

Dana

Ahaha! You're the one who guided me all the way here, Captain.

Dana

Thank you for guiding me all the way here when I first came from the countryside and didn't know anything.

Dana

...Huh?

Dana

Captain, was that a smile just now? I've never seen such a wide smile on you before!

Dana

One more time! Could you smile like that again? Please?

The Liaison Officer is waiting for us.

Dana

Aww... that's too bad.

Dana

Then promise you'll show me again when we get back, okay?

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.

Lisa

...Congratulations, Savior.

Lisa

With this, you have passed the final trial of the [Journey].

Lisa

Shall we head back now?

Lisa

They are throwing a huge celebration in your honor for [completing the Journey].

Dana

...

Lisa

...Savior?

Dana

Huh? Oh...

Lisa

...

Dana

Wasn't someone else just here?

Dana

I know it sounds weird, but I could've sworn... someone was here.

Lisa

Excuse me? What do you mean?

Lisa

There's been no one else but us here from the start.

Dana

Really...?

Dana

But... I'm sure... someone was...

Dana

I feel like someone precious was there with me!

Lisa

Savior, I'm not sure what you're talking about...

Dana

I'm really sorry. But the party will have to wait.

Dana

There's someone I have to find right now!

Dana

That's not fair, Captain! How could you just vanish like that?

Dana

I still owe you so much roroca!

Dana

...Ahaha!

Dana

Wait for me, Captain.

Dana

This time, I'll be the one to give you all the roroca you deserve!

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.
