"An Aeon of Harmony descended upon Penacony at a time like this... Was it resonance caused by Robin summoning an incarnation of Harmony? Or did she notice my plan and come to stop the dead Ena from reviving? Or perhaps she came for you?" Sunday watched the flustered Celenova, equally uncertain.
"..." Celenova did not answer. She merely stared fixedly at Himeko.
"Ayriniev." Himeko gazed gently at Celenova and called her by the name she had borne as the Infinite Commander, beckoning her home in a soft voice. "The soldiers buried at heaven's edge shall one day return to the honeyed paradise, joining in the feast of this heaven."
"Meaningless! All harmony and disharmony, all perfect and imperfect movements, will ultimately be destroyed by me!! The stars are nothing more than flocks of birds awaiting death!!!" Seeing that Himeko had indeed come for her, Celenova decided to discard the unnecessary prelude and drive the symphony of destruction straight to its climax.
Like a conductor before an orchestra, she raised both hands and began directing the performance.
Every creation of the Anti-Matter Legion that had reached Penacony's starfield—the sky-covering warships, the shrieking Void Thralls, even the massive Doom Beasts—suddenly froze at once.
At that moment, they were no longer individuals. They became notes upon a staff, moving and merging under Celenova's command.
Steel twisted, armor melted, energy surged...
Countless savage war machines seemed to be thrown into an invisible furnace, refining the myriad manifestations of destruction into a purer, more ultimate essence of ruin.
In an instant, the legion that had blotted out the sky vanished without a trace.
In its place stood a harmony named Destruction—a sword of "Same Fate," forged from the wreckage of starships, the wails of billions of Void Thralls, and the unwilling roars of Doom Beasts.
