"Beings of the Omni-Dimension, listen." Boruto's voice passed through the Heart Lock and spread across every inch of land, every dimension. "We once gave you eternal peace, but took away your courage to face the darkness. We once erased all pain, but made you lose the foundation of your existence."

Peace is not something that comes easily, but something we protect with our lives. Existence is not a matter of course, but the act of still holding one another's hands amid pain."

Some saw the ordinary days when they held hands with family, stood shoulder to shoulder with companions, and lived in harmony with nature.
Light gradually returned to hollow eyes, tears
