"So the story's almost done, granpa?" the girl asked, eyes drooping a bit. "I'm still not tired!"

"Oh, pumpkin, that was just to get daddy off my back," he cautioned, hands raised from his lap. "Of course, I can't tell you when its almost over. That would make the ending boring, wouldn't it?" The girl nodded her head fervently before crouching down into her blankets once more, holding them just over her nose.

"Coming back to Angra Mainyu's great palace, his followers once more claimed certainty in finding one of the secret agents of the Heavens and Netherworld. Once more, a great accusation was leveled by Secura, who was reputed to have narrowly survived an attack the night before. This time, it was pointed at Renata. Renata herself said she witnessed Glyphz stalking the night in an unsavory manner as well. It was tightly contested at first, with both wondering whether it was Glyphz or Renata who presented the true threat. But in the end, a late of surge of support for Secura urged people onwards to voting for Renata. When the sun began to set on the horizon, the bell ringer gave a mighty clang to indicate the time was come for a decision to be made.

'Step forward, Renata and Glyphz,' Mainyu called, standing in front of his golden throne. 'Support for the death of Glyphz?' A relatively small handful of supporters stepped forward. 'Support for the death of Renata?' A much larger group of supporters stepped forward, defiant glares aimed at Renata. 'And so it is. Renata, step forward. Renata aimed a glance at the group, a small raised eyebrow all that indicated displeasure, before advancing before Mainyu. 'Last words?' Renata merely shot a sideways glance once more at the anxious group who had put her forth.

'Fools...'

Mainyu looked displeased at the address, and did not wait for his sword bearer. He raised his hands high, a caustic red lightning filling the air between them. He crashed it down on Renata. On impact, the lightning struck all the way through her, and she disappeared into a fine, crimson mist.

'And on a similar note...' he said, turning back to the crowd. 'Bring me SoulBlade.' He was shuffled forward by a pack of nervous onlookers. 'The glorious future has no place for the idle. You've done not nearly enough to stake your place in my new world.' And so, Mainyu brought down his wrath on SoulBlade, who was likewise vaporized on the spot.

Turning back to his supporters, Mainyu issued them a last farewell for the night. 'Well, fortune on your hunting tonight, my soldiers! I am confident the noose is tightening still!'
