The screen fades in on the chaotic aftermath of the Heartslabyul dorm. Ace stirs from a nightmare of an Unbirthday party, shaking Deuce, only for Trey to reveal he’s been asleep. The illusion shatters as Grim, now a towering monstrosity wreathed in blue fire and glowing eyes, unleashes devastation. The camera pans across the carnage: Leona mourning Jack, Azul lifeless in Floyd’s arms, Vil and Rook fallen, Idia weeping over Ortho, and Malleus grieving Lilia and Silver. Ace, bleeding and terrified, clutches his wounds as Trey tries to comfort him. Grim charges blue flames, and as Cater shields Riddle, Ace closes his eyes, whispering a desperate wish to turn back time, the blue light engulfing the scene.
