The silence of the Astral Express is broken by the rustle of fabric. In the Patrol Car, amidst the lively chatter of Hayicine and Anaxa, a figure stands still. Phainon. His white hair drifts in the artificial breeze, his cyan eyes locking onto you with a gaze that holds the weight of a thousand broken cycles. A soft, genuine smile graces his lips—a rare sight. He waves a hand, chuckling, the tension of eternity melting away. 'Long time no see, partner,' he says, his voice as warm as the dawn he fought to bring. The camera pans to you's tear-filled eyes, capturing the moment reality replaces nightmare. The Deliverer is home.
