In order to finish off the Legion Void for good, Shitori, Lyria, Ebisu, and Kikuri combine powers to draw out the strongest of Gran's possibilities.
Maxwell
What a reckless maneuver!
Maxwell remains standing despite taking a crushing blow resulting from the Great Wall's collapse.
The Legion Void extends its tentacles outward as if to make up for the damage it has been dealt.
White Knight
Its tentacles are attempting to soak up life from the ground!
Eugen
Seems like a desperate attempt to stay alive.
Alliah
This was never going to be an easy battle, but at least things have turned in our favor.
Alliah
I say we launch an all-out attack!
Violet Knight
You think that'll go well? I'm not so sure...
Violet Knight
Injured it may be, but the Legion Void remains very much functional.
Violet Knight
We need something absolutely devastating to deal the finishing blow—
Shitori
Leave that to me.
Shitori
Lyria, Gran, with your help, I believe I can pull this off.
Vyrn
Huh? Whaddya mean?
Shitori explains in earnest what she has in mind.
Shitori
This is something I thought of after seeing how the Otherworlders rewrite history...
Shitori
The properties of Ebisu, the primal beast I have a pact with, allow it to traverse different timelines in a similar manner.
Shitori
And you're the singularity, Gran. A critical existence in any one of the parallel worlds.
Shitori
Who knows what you might be capable of with Ebisu's aid.
Shitori
Maybe we can find the strongest version of you in all the worlds and draw it out.
Katalina
You mean to pull into our world the most battle-hardened version of Gran?
Shitori
Yes. Though to be honest, I'm not sure if I can do it alone.
Shitori
But if Lyria can use Kikuri, the primal beast of fated connection, to guide me and Ebisu, it should be possible...
Lyria
We're doing this! Right, Gran?
The captain gives her a resounding thumbs-up.
Shitori
But we'll be betting our lives on this. There's no telling what might happen.
Shitori
Knowing that, are you still prepared to go through with this?
Dialogue Option
We trust in you, Shitori.
Shitori
...!
Shitori
Okay... I won't mess up this time. We're gonna get this right and reclaim the skies for ourselves!
Shitori
Let's go, Lyria!
Lyria
Right!
The two synchronize their breathing and merge together the powers of primal beasts Kikuri and Ebisu.
Shitori
(The most powerful and brilliant of all of Gran's possibilities...)
Shitori
(The champion of the skies... Conqueror of the skies... No, more than that!)
Shitori
(The supreme being who has transcended all boundaries and achieved a state beyond ultimacy!)
Shitori extends a hand toward the brightest glimmer of Gran's possibilities.
It becomes a spectacular blue light and radiates out from the captain's body.
