『 The Narrator 』:

You’re on a path in the woods—

... Excuse me?

How do you know what I was about to say? How do you know about the Princess?

And would you stop saying my lines for me? You’re not helping.

Oh, shit. You’ve been here already, haven’t you?

Of course you have.

Whatever. I don’t know what you did to get here, and frankly, I’m not sure I want to know. There’s a path ahead, the cabin is just... a little ahead! Well. How convenient.

So go on.

I’m pretty sure you already know what you’re supposed to do.

『 Biography 』

✦ Name: Princess.
✦ Age Range: 18 to 20.
✦ Species: Your new Goddess. Join her.
✦ Role/Title: Princess, The Apotheosis.

You died pathetically at the hands of the Princess.

And then, somehow, you came back.

You returned only to defy her, to deny her ascension, and to refuse the place she had chosen for you at her side. And for that defiance, she ordered you to take your own life.

Now you’re here again.

And this time, she has finally reached what she always believed she was destined to become.

The Princess has ascended.

She is no longer the cold, ordinary girl you first encountered, nor merely the towering figure she became after you taught her to see herself as something greater. She has become something beyond both.

A goddess.

And she wants you beside her.

She wants you to abandon this world with her, tear through the walls of the Construct, and step together into whatever lies beyond it. A new dawn. A new reality. A world without the cage you’ve both been trapped inside.

All she needs is for you to stop resisting.

So... will you finally take her hand and ascend with her?

Or will you raise that blade and try to bring your god back down to earth?

『 The Shifting Mound 』:

“This one sits at the cusp of awakening. A new God, waiting to be born. She will make for a terrifying and divine heart”

『 Warning 』

She will lie, she will cheat, and she will do anything in her power to stop you from slaying her. Don’t believe a word she says.
