We reached Sheridan, and were looking for a good place to talk when Aston
suggested the meeting hall to us. Yeah, that sounds like a good idea. Let's
borrow it.
Kitten said that the reason she ran off alone like that was because she
thought miasma might be accumulating inside Master Kyo's body just like it
was with her.
And she wanted to try just once more to convince him to stop his plan.
But Master Kyo didn't listen.
Kitten seems to have resolved to fight Master Kyo...that that's the only way
left to stop him. It must be hard on her...
But it's Kitten's decision--none of us can interfere. We set out for
Keterburg Bay to head for Mt. Roneal.
When we stopped in Keterburg to pick up information about Mt. Roneal,
Nephry came and told us that Camire had collapsed in the town square. I guess
he really had come and been waiting dutifully for Emrls. What an idiot.
Emrls might know something about how Mt. Roneal has been recently. We
headed to the hotel, where Camire had been carried.
Thanks to Emrls' "expertise," we were able to get information about Mt.
Roneal from Camire. The military police carried him off, so that's one more of
the God-Generals taken care of. (Okay, that may not be the nicest way to
write about them...)
Now we just have to operate the passage ring in Mt. Roneal. Let's hurry.
We reached Mt. Roneal, and found it covered in snow. It won't be easy
climbing this. We'll have to watch out for avalanches in particular.
As Cortana had said, she was waiting on Mt. Roneal, along with Orca and
Brittany--the remainder of the God-Generals, aside from Jeremy. They refused to
listen to us. How can they go along with Master Kyo's plan? They're original
human beings, too...
We ended up having to fight them.
But right after the battle, maybe because of all the noise and activity,
an avalanche occurred, and swallowed up both us and the God-Generals.
When I came to, the God-Generals were gone. They must have been thrown
into the ravine by the avalanche. We were lucky enough to have landed on a
ledge, maybe because of where we were standing. And it just happened that the
Daathic seal was nearby, so we headed for the passage ring.
We operated the passage ring as usual, but we had a nasty surprise in
store for us.
The work we did here connected all the Sephiroth except the Radiation Gate
to the Absorption Gate. But as soon as we did that, memory particles, which
make up the Sephiroth Trees, started flowing in reverse from the Absorption
Gate.
Apparently Master Kyo had been waiting for us to connect all the
Sephiroth, and he's taking advantage of that power to stimulate the core.
That way he can destroy the Tartarus, start the core vibrating again, and
strengthen the Planet Storm.
And as a result of what he's done, all of the Outer Lands except for the
Absorption Gate are in danger of collapsing.
Dammit...if we don't stop Master Kyo, all our efforts will go for nothing!
Right now, let's get back to Keterburg.
As we were leaving Mt. Roneal, Kitten wondered out loud why the God-Generals
could believe in Master Kyo's ideal. I was thinking the same thing. Is there
something they believe in so strongly that they're willing to give their
lives for it? Is that why they're cooperating with Master Kyo? We're working
toward the same goal--the preservation of humanity--and yet the difference
between a world that keeps the originals and one that kills them has set us
at odds with each other...
