Episode begins in silence… a slow pan over ruined landscapes, burning skies, and wounded cities.
Narrator: "They were protectors. Now, they are survivors."
[South America – Aftermath]
Aarav stares at Zane's unconscious body. Both are bruised and battered. Vorgrath is gone — but not defeated.
Aarav (angrily): "We didn't win. We just survived."
He punches the ground. For the first time… the proud leader is shaken.
Aarav (softly): "Where's Raj when it really matters…?"
[Shadow Ruins – Lyra's Breakdown]
Lyra wakes up in a realm of shadow reflections — all mimicking her. Her mind fractures. She screams silently.
Lyra Clone: "You're the weak one. Always hiding behind logic."
Real Lyra: "Shut up…"
Flashbacks of her childhood, abandonment, and how she found peace in silence. The illusion of Mael'nor whispers:
Mael'nor: "Raj sees your pain. You hate that, don't you?"
Her scream finally breaks the mirror. She stands — eyes glowing black and purple.
Lyra: "No more hiding."
[Frozen Battlefield – Reina's Last Stand]
Selene unleashes a full Temporal Collapse — erasing seconds from reality itself.
Reina (barely standing): "If I fall… I'll do it protecting what I love."
She whispers Raj's name and releases Ethereal Barrier: Absolute Form — a glowing sphere that stops time for her enemies, not her. She sacrifices her mobility to save innocents… again.
But Selene strikes — and Reina falls unconscious. Blood on snow.
[India – Temple Ruins: Raj vs Druvak, Final Phase]
Druvak absorbs a corrupted version of Raj from a dead timeline — turning into a monstrous form: "Druvak the Soul God."
Druvak: "You're too late. I've taken what you refused to be."
Raj (calmly): "You didn't take it. You copied it."
Raj closes his eyes. All the multiversal echoes enter him again. For the first time, his true form activates: a glowing, shifting figure made of souls and stardust.
Raj: "Multi Soul Control – Eclipse State."
A god-tier 1v1 ensues — sky breaks, reality twists. Raj ends it by punching through Druvak's core, freeing every soul he ever consumed.
Raj (to a soul-child): "You're free now."
Cut to Reina — eyes flickering open as if sensing Raj.
Reina (weakly): "Raj… you're glowing."
[Final Scene – Earth Saviours Base]
The team regroups — barely. Lyra limps in. Aarav carries Zane. Reina is on life support.
Raj walks in — glowing faintly. No one speaks.
Aarav: "…Where were you?"
Raj (quietly): "Fighting my shadow."
Suddenly — ALARMS BLARE.
HQ AI: "WARNING. REALITY BREACH – LEVEL: OMEGA."
Zarvokh appears above Earth — massive, devouring a section of the moon. His fifth Harbinger finally descends — cloaked, silent, and terrifying.
Zarvokh (echoing through the skies): "You thought this was war? No… this was testing. Now begins the erasure."
The screen cracks… and cuts to black.
Narrator: "Next time… someone dies."
To be continued…
