"Whatever plan that Rank 4 Demon set into motion that day… It's finally begun, hasn't it?"
The future—the fate that Wesker wove through his King's Eye on that day—was finally beginning to unfold.
"There are many forces on the verge of colliding… and the reappearance of high-ranking demons is proof enough."
"Brace yourself, Frey Starlight. You will soon have to fight them—face to face."
