As we proceeded through Eldrant in search of Master Kyo, we came across
the former mansion of Count Gardios. We started talking about the Score, and
all of a sudden Kitten recalled the Seventh Fonic Hymn, which she had never
been able to remember before. She said Master Kyo had sung it to her as a
lullaby when she was little. She still doesn't understand its meaning or
symbolism well enough to use it as a real fonic hymn. But now that she's
remembered it, she's able to use the Grand Fonic Hymn, which could reawaken
Sol within Master Kyo's body.
We've gained a new weapon for our battle. This should give us another
advantage in fighting Master Kyo. Let's hurry and find him.
Further on, I suddenly got the headache that comes with Jeremy's channel,
and I saw Jeremy--no, I saw the world through Jeremy's eyes.
Jeremy's body was covered with injuries from fighting the Oracle soldiers,
and yet he kept on battling. And just as it looked like he had taken care of
them all, he relaxed for an instant, and in that instant an Oracle soldier
ran him through with a sword. Even so, Jeremy pulled together the last of his
strength, defeated the soldier, and called to me... "The rest is up to you."
Then I felt something warm flow into me. It was Jeremy...the same feeling I had
when we lowered the Outer Lands, when we neutralized the miasma. So I knew
exactly what had happened.
Jeremy had died...
Gwen was immobilized by the shock. And with the worst timing, we were
caught in a fonic trap, and were about to be destroyed by it.
That instant, I felt power flow out of me, and it neutralized the trap.
The power I used, the power Jeremy probably gave me, is called "second-order
hyperresonance." Evan appeared before us and called it that.
Evan attacked us, cursing his own birth. He had joined Master Kyo to help
destroy the Score which had led to his being born.
We defeated Evan.
Was he really empty, like he said? Or did he simply think he wanted to be
empty? We can't ask him anymore, but I wish I could have heard his answer.
Emrls scolded Gwen for succumbing to shock at Jeremy's death, and she
finally realized just how dangerous her actions had been. And she said to me
that Jeremy was inside me. Even though she could have said that I should have
died instead, and I wouldn't have been able to respond... I'm sorry, Gwen.
