We defeated the last shadow on November third, and thought we'd stopped the Dark Hour. Ikutsuki took Aigis to the lab for repairs, [ And it's telling, that he doesn't call him Ikutsuki-san, ] and we had a small party on the fourth with Kirijo-san, Mitsuru's father, to disband SEES.

He said we hadn't gotten rid of the Dark Hour. Destroying all the Arcana Shadows was never meant to end it; it brought about something called the Fall instead.

[ He drags a hand down his face. ]
The last I saw of Mitsuru was her going with Aigis back to Kirijo Corp.
[ He stops there. Again, conflicted feelings rise; had they ever been doing the right thing in the first place? ]
