Rivan leads the team to a hidden fragment of the True Core, where a part of Aera's essence still remains. It's not her body or soul, but an echo of her final choice. They must pass through the Frozen Cascade, a realm where time is frozen in regret. Each step forward replays something they wish they could change.
Akuzai relives Aera's final words again. This time, she smiles—not as a memory, but as a farewell. "Live, not for me—but for yourself," her echo whispers.
Akuzai kneels, letting go of guilt. The Eternis Edge glows softly—not in rage, but peace.
Rivan, who had been carrying Aera's memory since Season 2, releases it. A single silver tear falls. The timeline stabilizes momentarily. The team stands in silence. Healing has begun.
