Arc 17Finality and False Daughter
Kevin imprisoned Finality within himself and challenged the next generation to defeat him, while Kiana emerged as humanity’s hoped-for successor. The review then traced the tangled fates of K423, the real Kiana, Siegfried, and Cecilia, before beginning Leanna Brigantia’s story.
- Kevin revealed his plan to preserve humanity through the Holy Mark Space while taking Finality into himself, and endured an endless cycle of destruction and regeneration.
- Kevin erased a distant star with Finality’s power, then imprisoned Finality on the moon and became its living lock, with his will serving as the safeguard against the world’s destruction.
- Kevin remained alone for billions of years, waiting for someone to defeat him and prove humanity could find a path beyond Finality.
- Kiana Kaslana appeared before Kevin as the third End Herrscher, and he called on her to inherit Finality and lead humanity beyond extinction.
- The Light Screen revealed that Otto created K423 by combining Kiana’s genes with Sirin’s, while Siegfried mistook the replica for his daughter and raised her as Kiana.
- Otto hid the real Kiana, who became Bianca Durandal Ataegina and Schicksal’s strongest Valkyrie, while K423 lived with Siegfried and later protected him from attackers.
- During the Second Honkai War, Otto launched a fission missile at Siegfried, and Cecilia stopped it at the cost of her life.
- Siegfried rescued infant K423, while the real Kiana fell into an icy abyss, survived with amnesia, and was renamed Bianca Durandal by Otto, and the Light Screen then showed Otto controlling Leanna Brigantia with biological chips.
