So the enemies have finally made it most of the way to the palace.
Selvia
It's almost time, now.
Sirius... Looks like he didn't make it back.
Feleen
We'll just be wasting time if we wait any longer. I'll go on ahead.
Selvia
Sirius. You're late.
I heard rumors that Father had vanished. Surely he's not gone already?!
Selvia
No, you needn't worry. Father is still in the palace.
Sirius
He is? I'm so glad I made it back in time.
Selvia
To be honest, I spread that rumor myself.
Selvia
I did it to force you to make a decision.
Selvia
So, surely you've had enough time now. Let's have your answer.
Selvia
You're concerned for the people?
Selvia
If it were possible, I would like to save them too!
Selvia
But the circumstances will not allow it!
Selvia
We are the Imperial Family! If we don't defend our nation, then what is left for us to protect?!
Selvia
We aren't choosing to turn our backs on the people.
Selvia
We're choosing the best option left to us...
Selvia
...in order to secure a future for the same Bariura Empire that our forefathers gave their lives to defend.
Selvia
No matter what, we will return in order to annihilate the loathsome God Army.
Selvia
And after we return, we will restore the Empire to its former glory!
Sirius
I...will go with Father, and with you, Selvia.
Selvia
Oh good, so you are coming with us.
Selvia
We don't have much time left. We leave at once.
Sirius
I'm sorry, my beloved people of Bariura...
Sirius
Regardless of how it came to this, I'm still leaving you all to die.
Sirius
But, I swear that I will move forward, and honor your dying wishes...
Sirius
...no matter how long it takes.
Sirius... I'm so glad I made it in time.
Sirius
Myuze? Why are you here?!
Myuze
I saw you go into the palace.
Myuze
You're going, aren't you? Somewhere far away...
Myuze
I don't know the details.
Myuze
But I know you all well enough to see something's going on.
Sirius
The capital will fall soon.
Sirius
Myuze, you should come with us.
Myuze
Will you promise me? Promise that you'll be back?
Sirius
Yes, Myuze. I promise.
Myuze
Sirius, thank you...
Sareas
How is this possible? How are these God Army scum so tough?
Dure
I'm...fine. I'm not going to die here.
Sareas
But, with that wound...!
Dure
Fight, Sareas! Our missions aren't over yet!
More and more of them keep showing up. I can't hold out like this!
Berdette, are you all right?!
Berdette
Yes... Even if just to protect the people, I can't let myself fall here.
Radia
Huh? What is that?!
Berdette
Oh, this? It's a family relic, the Imperial Savior band.
Berdette
Selvia sent Feleen with it...
Berdette
...to make sure I'd have it.
Berdette
I don't know why she decided to give it to me now, though.
Radia
Oh, I see. So that's what happened.
Radia
Um, Selvia actually told me a few things about that armband.
Radia
Berdette! I'll distract the enemies here!
Radia
Use that opening to break through their ranks, then lead the people out of the city!
Berdette
Where did this idea come from?
Radia
As it stands now, we're just going to end up completely surrounded by the God Army.
Radia
This is our last chance!
Berdette
Don't be ridiculous! I can't leave you behind!
Radia
Please don't misunderstand me.
Radia
I'm proposing this in order to keep the people safe!
Radia
Berdette, what are you fighting to protect right now?!
Radia
Berdette, please, lead the citizens somewhere safe.
Berdette
But...you have to come, too!
Radia
I don't intend to stand by meekly and let the God Army kill me.
Radia
Once I break through their defenses, I'll go to join you.
Berdette
Radia, forgive me.
Radia
Isn't it strange, Berdette?
Radia
Up until now, all the Imperial heirs did was clash with each other.
Radia
But now, we're all working together toward a common goal: saving our people.
Radia
And just like Dure, I've chosen to become a sacrificial pawn.
Radia
But it feels like the decent choice. I'm sure Dure felt the same way...
Radia
I'm not going to let you lay a single finger on Berdette, or on the people of Bariura!
Radia
Even if I have to use this evil stone that Father was studying!
Myuze
Sirius...our nation dies today.
Myuze
So I...all of us...will spend our final moments with the nation's people...
Several hours later, the Imperial Capital of Bariura fell to the God Army and the Bariura Empire vanished from Grand Gaia.
Third-born princess Berdette broke through the God Army's siege, leading the surviving citizens as she fled.The stories tell us that afterwards, she disguised herself as a commoner and joined a group on its way to a new promised land.
The Emperor of Bariura traveled to another world alongside Crown Prince Sirius, and their group challenged a divine beast to combat in order to secure power with which to challenge the God Army.
However, their attempt ended in failure. The Emperor of Bariura was gravely wounded, and did not survive.
Later, Sirius would elect to coexist with the divine beast in its world.The tales tell us that he was never able to make good on his promise to Myuze, the fourth-born princess of Bariura. Sirius would never again return to Grand Gaia.
