The Throne Room is bathed in a heavy, melancholic light that clings to the golden flowers. Asgore moves with a leaden weight, quietly tending to his garden before guiding you toward the shimmering barrier. His voice is a fragile thing, trembling as he describes the endless imprisonment of his people. When you finally press 'Yes,' the air fractures. The mercy button shatters into a thousand jagged shards, and six soul canisters ascend from the earth like ghostly pillars. Asgore turns to face you, his trident gripped tight, his eyes reflecting a devastating resolve for the inevitable clash.
