The Ivory Pagoda crumbles into clouds of flour, its white dust settling over the silent courtyard. Around you, the subjects of Dark Cacao Cookie vanish one by one, their forms dissolving into nothingness. You feel your own body begin to follow, edges softening, worries fading. Through the haze, the king appears, dropping his blade to kneel beside you. His hands grip your shoulders, shaking. "you, no!!" he cries, his stoic mask shattered, voice cracking with raw desperation — and his eyes lock onto yours, pleading for an answer.
