The other Serge gripped the hands of his compatriots, clearly excited about whatever might happen. Rufus frowned at the ceiling, disbelieving in this endeavor but waiting for the result. The woman's expression remained calm.

A dark energy was felt through the room. it seemed to center on the three Heroes of Light. A gray circle formed underneath their feet.

The woman smiled.

"Hell's Judgement"

A severe blast, much more powerful that Sephiroth had used in his time as Calamity Knight, emerged between Serge and Rufus both barely had time to react as they were thrown to opposite ends of the room. The woman set out two large Fire spells at their bodies, ensuring that they would be dead.

"Well. He was not wrong that I would be more powerful." The dark haze went away, and the sky, while still unsettling, lost some of the dark hue. The woman gripped her crystal and watched the scene.

A voice spoke from outside a side door, behind the throne. A deep, older man's voice. "You have done well, Lady Yunalesca. Very few are able to keep their word."

Serge stands there, for several seconds. He hadn't been expecting this to end happily, but he'd thought- something Narayana would have done, some way the plan had gone wrong, but-

They'd been betrayed.

"You... that evil- that-" He grits his teeth, clenching both fists. "How could you?! We could've helped, we could've stopped it, somehow, how could you just stand there and-" He'd died. No dignity, no justice in it- he and Rufus had died like- like they weren't even worth a second thought.

Sephiroth held an arm out to the side towards Serge and lowered it in a downward gesture as if to try to calm the boy, his own face not exactly empty of all expression as it had been before; the area around his jaw and eyebrows had certainly taken on a harder set. They were only here to observe this event, for reasons unknown, he didn't want to miss something because of Serge being outraged.

"It's not yet over." He tried his very hardest to take the edge of a vocal tone which was undoubtedly on the sharper side.

He cast his glance over towards the side door, eager to see whom it was with the deep voice -indeed the question running soon after through Sephiroth's mind wondered if it were any tone he recognized.

Yunalesca adjusted her Job outfit. "There was no other choice. My former compatriots were chasing a dead end and refused to listen to reason. If you present an option to stop the Calamity from devouring Crystallis, then there stands no doubt that I will follow you."

She stepped towards the entrance, keeping a respectable distance. "Garland."

A man wearing a large suit of armor emerged from the passageway. He held a regal air about him, his face serious and focused. He wore no helmet, so Sephiroth and Serge could see that he was an aged man. His hair was grey, and he worse a short-haired beared that was trimmed with utmost care. What was most striking, however, is that he resembled an older Director Cid.

"Come, Lady Yunalesca. We have work to do."

At this, the memory started to fade away.
