LUNA ABYSS | All Cutscenes (Full Game Movie) · No Commentary Gaming

2:09
You are a Sinner, a bearer of the Mar, sentenced to 9125 days
2:18
of scout servitude and stripped of your earthly status.
2:23
You now belong to the Old Father, transferred to the Blood
2:29
Moon. Penal Colony will commence
2:32
immediately. What have we here?
3:29
You scout. What
3:43
a pleasant surprise. Welcome to the Red Moon.
4:02
How do you like your cell, inmate?
4:09
What? What are you?
4:13
My name is Aylan. I'm here to help you settle into
4:16
your new life on Luna. We don't use Earth names here,
4:20
so from now on you'll be going by the designation Fox.
4:25
It's a good name, I chose it myself.
4:30
You're a giant head. And you're a small human who is
4:35
being inducted into the Scout program.
4:38
It's been a while since I had a new Scout.
4:40
Most of mine have got lost. We're well perished.
4:46
Please I want to go home. You were gifted the Mark of Luna
4:50
for a reason. Only those who bear those
4:53
beautiful red eyes are chosen for such important work and.
4:59
What happens if I disagree? You don't want to disagree with
5:03
the old Father Fox. But enough of that.
5:17
You must be very excited to be here.
5:22
What kind of prison is this? Don't be so dramatic now.
5:27
As a scout, your job is to complete assigned missions down
5:30
in the abyss. Scavenging, technology,
5:33
reconnaissance, cleaning, whatever we want you to do.
5:36
The more missions you complete, the faster your sentence is
5:40
reduced. The Abyss.
5:44
So there is a spark of curiosity in there.
5:47
The abyss is the infinite structure inside of this lunar
5:50
object you find yourself on. In other words, you're in space.
5:55
But don't worry, Scouts don't leave their cells when they
5:59
access the Abyss. You'll stay here whilst remotely
6:02
piloting a Warden, a sort of living machine.
6:06
Speaking of which, let's get you settled in and then we'll look
6:10
at assigning you one. A normally detected cabinet
6:15
district. Scout Action requested.
6:19
Selection begins. Selection completed.
6:23
Scout 5437 Code name folks to report for duty.
6:31
Well, out of the frying pan and into the fire, as they say.
6:36
Looks like we'll need to settle you in later.
6:43
Let's assign you a Warden. The end only comes, you say
7:08
stop. Time to wake up, little
7:16
wanderer. It's time to wake up.
7:27
There isn't much salvage left here, you know.
7:30
All the useful technology was taken a long time ago.
7:36
Are you a prisoner? No, I am a relic of different
7:43
times. I envy you surface dwellers.
7:48
These depths grow stifling after a while.
7:52
I can't recall when I lost saw moonlight.
7:58
A relic of different times. We create time where none
8:03
exists. It has no material meaning, no
8:08
worse with which to measure. Everything that is exists only
8:14
as the sum total of what was and what is yet to come.
8:20
As the snake swallows its own tail, so time swallows itself,
8:27
you see. I'm not sure I do.
8:31
Nothing in life is irrefutable. Perhaps you will reach a
8:36
different conclusion, but please tell me what brings you to these
8:42
decaying holes. I'm looking for a piece of
8:46
technology, something called a shield breaker.
8:51
I see so the automated detection system is still in working
8:56
order. I use an old workshop not far
9:00
from here. I think what remains of your
9:04
shield breaker can be found there.
9:07
Follow the path through this tower and cross the pipes that
9:11
grow. Thank you.
9:15
Take care, young scout. It stopped.
10:20
I suppose he sent you to hunt me down, yes.
10:26
You're being haunted. Aren't we all?
10:32
I'm Yurian by the way. Nice to meet you.
10:37
I came to locate a signal. It sounds like it's coming from
10:42
that thing. It seems to you does it, and
10:48
it's fascinating. Can you hear it?
10:53
All the time. It drives me mad.
10:55
Actually, I've begun to suspect that I was imagining it.
10:59
When you've been alone for as long as I have, you become a bit
11:01
peculiar in the head. What is it?
11:15
Everything. Or maybe it isn't.
11:19
Maybe it's a lie shaped like a promise.
11:21
Fool's. Gold and I'm the fool, but
11:23
that'd be hilarious. But never mind me.
11:27
Be called to you. And you answered, so it's yours
11:31
now. It wants to commune with you.
11:36
You let it, won't you? I'm not sure that's a good idea.
11:47
Rubbish. How else do you expect to learn
11:50
anything? Go on, it won't bite you.
12:22
It would seem that it has chosen you and
13:34
As the snake swallows its own tail, we swallow time feed on
13:46
the run feed. Yeah, you're a funny looking
14:45
one. Excuse me?
14:50
Begging your pardon, no one's used this lift in a few and I
14:54
ain't ever seen anyone looking like you before.
15:00
You're pretty unusual too. 3rd play.
15:04
Suppose I've been a bit truncated since I lost my twin.
15:08
I'm Ellie, by the way. Does this thing still work?
15:14
Of course it still works. Granted it's been several
15:18
centuries since anyone but me used it, but don't you worry, I
15:22
keep the old girl in tip top shape.
15:25
Some days I ride all the way to the top and some days I go all
15:29
the way back down to the bottom. Oh, we do have a grand old time.
15:35
What are you doing down here anyway?
15:37
You don't look like one of them churchy types.
15:42
I'm a scout and this is my first day actually.
15:45
They sent me down here to find a signal and whoa, it's a long
15:51
story. All right, and what's a scout
15:56
when it's at home? You don't know.
16:03
I know how to go up and how to go down.
16:06
Ain't got much call to know anything else.
16:09
My twin now, he liked to know everyone's comings and goings.
16:13
Like to keep up with all the drama.
16:15
You see, round about the time everything went per shaped down
16:18
here, he just sort of disappeared.
16:21
Ain't seen him since. Is he still alive?
16:29
No, probably not. Nobody lives forever, do they?
16:32
Folks? Be a funny old world if we did.
16:37
Anyway, Off you pop, got things to do, places to go.
16:47
Welcome back folks. How are you feeling?
17:01
I was a ghost. I suppose it must have been
17:06
quite a traumatic experience. The good news is you completed
17:14
your mission. Your sentence has been reduced
17:16
by 100 days. The bad news is you lost a
17:24
warden. That's a penalty of 20 days.
17:30
I'm sure you'll do better next time.
17:34
I still feel strange. Yes, well, you've been through
17:39
quite the transformation. Your neural signature, the
17:45
signal inside you that is normally intrinsically connected
17:48
to a warden, has become separated.
17:53
It is now its own entity. And that means?
18:00
You no longer need a Warden to protect you from the scourge in
18:03
the Abyss. I don't think I like the sound
18:11
of that. It certainly doesn't seem to
18:14
have done you any harm. Your vital signs look fine,
18:18
better than before in fact. I doubt many humans would have
18:22
the mental strength to adapt as quickly as you did.
18:24
It's quite impressive. Yurian, he mentioned you by
18:34
name. He said this is for Aylan.
18:39
Well, that is unusual, however not surprising given my research
18:44
on him so far. He said something about going to
18:50
grey grey my head. You need to rest, folks.
18:58
Leave this hurrian to me. We'll talk tomorrow.
19:04
Good morning, folks. Are you feeling better?
19:11
How am I supposed to feel better when I'm stuck in this place?
19:14
I'm choking that response. Up to you having a bad night's
19:17
sleep, fox. In any case, I've been looking
19:20
into this Yurian character. He's quite the proverbial can of
19:23
snakes. He said someone was hunting him
19:29
down. I should hope so.
19:32
He's got a rap sheet as long as my neck.
19:34
Yurian Caldecott wanted for historic crimes against the Old
19:39
Colony. Treason, espionage, theft,
19:45
reckless endangerment of life, the list goes on.
19:50
He is to be apprehended at all costs.
19:52
I've logged a mission request into the system for you.
19:58
I it feels like it's in my head. I don't know what that place
20:03
was, but I believe Yurian lured us there for a reason.
20:09
He mentioned something about prophecy.
20:14
Yes, well, there might be something to that.
20:17
The Abyss still has secrets. We don't know much about the
20:21
original prophecy, the one that drove the Church to build the
20:24
Lost Colony, but we do know that they believe there was a heart
20:28
to the Abyss, a place of immense power that would open up to
20:32
those that were true believers. It seems Yurian is a hangover
20:37
from a time long lost, a dangerous extremist.
20:47
He told me he'd be waiting for me in Graymont.
20:53
Graymont. It was the capital of the Old
20:59
Colony, the birth place of the Scourge.
21:03
A powerful place. I can't help wondering if he's
21:07
luring you into a trap. But you're going to send me
21:16
there anyway. Capture request for fugitive
21:26
urine. Caldicott accepted.
21:32
Scout 5437 designation folks to report for duty.
21:39
Bounty set at. 4000 days reduction to sentence.
21:47
I was hard on you yesterday, I admit that, but if you do as I
21:52
say and follow my orders, you have a real chance of making it
21:55
home one day. Anyway, it's time to go back to
22:01
the abyss and get to work. As you don't have a Warden
22:09
anymore, I've had to use an old disconnection point to
22:12
triangulate a suitable location. Luckily for you, it's exactly
22:18
where we need to go to open the way to Graymont.
22:22
Let's go connecting you to Kings Ridge.
23:46
After the. Scourge erupted, it said.
23:48
The old father fought to seal the darkness away once and for
23:52
all, both here and back in the old city, stopping the spread of
23:57
the disease. The train line to Graymont has
24:00
been sealed short for hundreds of years.
24:03
But if you're to follow the all fathers orders and apprehend
24:06
Hurian, we'll need to find a way to break these seals and open
24:09
the door. It's the only logical thing to
24:13
do. Now it is a sight for sore eyes,
24:20
and I've begun to think we were the only scouts left down here.
24:24
What brings you to sunny old King's Reach, little one?
24:29
Have you come from the Weeping Meadows?
24:31
I'm heading that way myself. I see, I see often holiday are
24:36
you? You get holiday.
24:43
I need to speak to HR. Never mind him, he's just been
24:47
daft. Apologies little one.
24:50
I suppose he must be out for salvage too.
24:52
Not that there's much left. Me and Orion here spend our days
24:56
combing the abyss for odds and ends.
24:58
Sending technology back to Earth is the official line.
25:02
Problem is, these machines have been rotting for the better part
25:05
of two centuries. So most of his useless old shit.
25:09
I'm sorry. He doesn't mean to be.
25:11
Crude. Well, time waits for no man or
25:15
spider. Hey, good luck to you on your
25:18
travels, little one. Maybe we'll cross paths again
25:20
somewhere down the road. Men's going to be craft.
25:28
Have I done something wrong? It doesn't matter.
25:33
You're interesting. What do you want?
25:39
Is that interesting too? I'm just curious about the sigil
25:44
on your banner. Nobody remembers anymore, but I
25:49
do. I know all kinds of things.
25:53
The reactor, that's where we find it.
25:59
It meant something important, I think.
26:06
Something important. I don't remember she'll be
26:14
cross, but maybe men will let you go look for it.
26:19
You should speak to her inside. surprised Min didn't shoot you
26:58
on sight. Maybe she's grown S over all
27:02
these years. Maybe I made a good first
27:06
impression. The world hasn't yet crushed all
27:09
the optimism out of you. That's cute in the absence of a.
27:14
Good life. We hope only for a meaningful
27:16
end. To die well is no great.
27:19
Shame. You shouldn't be here.
27:26
It was an accident. We have grown complacent.
27:31
Pure Ingress is my failure. It has been a long time since
27:37
anyone found their way here. To keep yourselves well hidden.
27:46
We were the keepers of the scourge, those appointed to
27:50
contain the spread. We've seen it, haven't you?
27:56
The rot in the flesh of the. World we were.
28:00
Once Luna's last hope, And outside said your sigil came
28:13
from the reactor. Thus says all kinds of things.
28:18
Only some of them are true. The old father came here not
28:23
long before the scourge erected, told us to go to ground, and
28:28
left for the old reactor. He went there with a companion
28:33
and came back alone. I've taken care of it, he said.
28:41
And then he left. He looked wanted.
28:48
The sigil is his gift to us, a ward against the rod that we may
28:54
protect those of you who remain. There's a matching sigil on a
29:01
sealed door in King's Reach. It must be related.
29:05
But there is nowhere safe in the abyss that the old father did
29:09
not make safe. What those men did bought us
29:14
time. But if this is your directive,
29:19
then it seems our time has run out.
29:23
Aren't you even a little bit curious about it all?
29:26
Curiosity is a luxury not afforded to those preoccupied
29:30
with surviving. If you truly intend to exhume
29:34
what ought to remain buried, I won't stop you.
29:39
But nor will I help living through it all.
29:43
The first time around was quite enough.
29:48
So it was the old father who placed the scene on the reactor.
29:52
I hope he won't object to us breaking it.
29:55
No Intercepting Yurian is our priority by any means necessary.
30:02
He made that perfect appear. Sometimes when I meditate
30:07
deeply, I go to the edge of the village and listen to the sounds
30:12
of nature. There used to be animals here.
30:17
They're gone now. I wonder what could be making
30:23
those sounds? Maybe it's the sound of your
30:27
memories. Maybe my heart remembers what my
30:32
head can. It was beautiful here once.
30:37
I need to forget that too. What?
31:30
Terrible thing. Have you awakened?
31:33
My instincts told me You Were Trouble.
31:37
It's fine, I'll take care of it. Just as you took care of turning
31:42
the power on, you must take me for a fool.
31:47
Forgive me. Anger won't undo what's done.
31:52
Tell me one thing, are we in danger?
31:57
I won't let anything harm this commune, I promise.
32:01
Wherever does Aylan pluck you all from?
32:03
Abundant in promises yet starved for solutions?
32:07
If I let you pass through, will you cause still more chaos?
32:13
You understand what's at stake for us here.
32:18
My freedom is at stake too. I don't want to be stuck on this
32:22
moon forever. I suppose I should know better
32:25
by now than to expect a straight answer from a scout.
32:29
Do what you have to. It's out of our hands now, isn't
32:33
it? Everything has to die and has
32:37
just so long to live. A warning before you go.
32:42
My Watchmen have reported a stranger in the vicinity.
32:45
It seems that Stray Cat has been sniffing around again.
32:51
It should go without saying, but if he finds his way in because
32:55
of you, I won't be quite so merciful.
33:01
I suppose you'd be willing to get to the old reactor.
33:09
How did you know? Well.
33:11
There's no other reason to be here, is there?
33:13
Apart from cock and not all the dead folk.
33:16
I take it you've already met men?
33:21
Did you live in the commune? I ate once, sit to death in a
33:25
place. Absolutely a wretched bunch.
33:29
We could have another 100 years in this year.
33:31
That's a long time to be miserable.
33:37
What are you doing out here anyway?
33:39
Failing mostly. Cat shift.
33:42
Those bastard gates full of their money.
33:44
Rastas welded them shut. I'm not as surprised as I used
33:47
to be, of course, if you was willing to help an old man out.
33:56
What do you need me to do? Just beyond here there's a
33:59
graveyard for old Wardens. Most of them are dead as disco,
34:03
but the guns are the lady ones that make short work of those
34:05
gates. I should warn you though, that
34:08
place is heaving with a drift. I'm up for a challenge.
34:15
I've no doubt think of me stuck in this old tin can when you're
34:19
off blasting holes and things, wouldn't you?
34:23
You were wondering what those disconnected were afraid of.
34:27
Well, this is it. After the Scourge, the Adrift
34:32
attacked in their masses. The disconnected could only hold
34:36
them off for so long. They died fighting, or well,
34:41
their bodies died. Even when their wardens ground
34:45
to a halt, their human consciousness would have
34:48
remained trapped inside for a long time.
34:51
That's horrifying. That's a good job.
34:59
Well done, Lars. Thanks for your help.
35:06
I was doing myself a favour, mostly Nah.
35:10
Well, it's a win win then. By the way, what's your interest
35:15
in that old reactor? It bears the same sigil as the
35:18
commune men says the old father gave it to them.
35:22
I want to know what it means. That's all.
35:26
Well, if it's sigils you're in two.
35:28
You'll want to head down to the old drift mines as well.
35:32
It's been a while, but I remember seeing something like
35:35
that down there. Worth a punt, eh?
36:06
Edwin, is that you? No, my name is Forks.
36:15
Who? What are you?
36:18
William, at least I think I'm William.
36:23
Is Edwin with you? I'm sorry, I don't know who
36:30
Edwin is. I need to tell him.
36:35
Sorry, I am. Please, if you can, just take me
36:39
to him. I I don't think that's possible,
36:46
Not anymore. I'm not me anymore.
36:50
I'm It was all real then. What a shame.
36:56
What a terrible, terrible shame. He'd gathered them all, the lost
37:13
and the desperate. The wretched earth was drowning,
37:22
and the baleful eye of the blood moon gazed down with a little
37:26
care, hope for the hopeless. What greater calling could there
37:34
be than to deliver humanity from disaster?
37:39
The leader of Fate was a great man, they said, bane of the
37:45
Church and Father to the doubt. O Come All Ye Faithful and
37:58
little care had William, who dreamed only of escape.
38:05
Fate or faith, it made no difference.
38:11
If his beloved went, then he would go with him.
38:17
The great man, Fate reached out the hand.
38:23
The old father, they call him. A lifeboat to a drowning man all
38:30
the way to the stars. Did you think he contained his
38:48
friends out of cruelty? It was protection, one last act
38:55
of kindness in an unkind world. Friends, there's more like him.
39:04
Sealed in the darkest depths, When none their walk, when none
39:10
their seek. He left her there, sleeping and
39:17
safe until you came. Will you take me to him, my
39:33
Edwin? He's gone, William.
39:39
There's nothing more you can do. Go on.
39:45
I think there might be a way to help you, but it means letting
39:50
you go back into the drift. Will I find him there, do you
39:56
think? Maybe.
40:01
All right, I'm ready. I'm ready to go now.
40:07
I hope you find him. You've earned a couple of days
40:26
off for all your hard work. You see, a scout's life isn't
40:30
all toil. There's reward too.
40:42
Did you know what I'd find? In the chamber.
40:46
I had no idea it wasn't in my briefing.
40:52
No, inside the monster. All adrift are people.
40:58
Fox were people. He must have been trapped in
41:03
there for centuries, just just slowly losing his mind.
41:09
The seal had to be broken. There was no other way.
41:14
Even if we'd known, Even if we'd understood the meaning of it.
41:20
The person. Inside people, there's another
41:24
one, trapped and alone, just like he was.
41:30
Yes, and you can grant them freedom.
41:38
Is that what you call it? Yes.
41:42
Would it have been better to leave him to rot?
41:45
It's not much of A choice. No, I suppose it isn't, but it's
41:52
done now, and we're a step closer to opening that door in
41:56
King's Reach. Let's head there in the morning
41:59
and see if it worked. Get some rest, folks, you'll
42:04
need your strength for tomorrow. Ah, Fox, you're up bright and
42:10
early, eager to get to work. Are any of your scouts eager?
42:18
For many scouts, connecting to the Abyss is the highlight of
42:21
their day. You'll get there in time.
42:23
More importantly, we have a lead on the second seal that
42:27
disconnected. Said he'd seen something similar
42:29
in the old drift mines. According to my analysis, it
42:33
looks like there's a large structure down there, most
42:36
likely a disused drift reactor like the one in the Weeping
42:39
Meadows. You think we'll find the seal
42:43
there? I think it's a safe bet.
42:46
Don't worry, I'll extract you if it seems dangerous.
42:51
I think they were his friends, the people inside.
42:56
I think he was protecting them from something.
42:59
It's not for us to interrogate the past.
43:02
We need to deal with the here and now.
43:04
In any case, let's get you down into King's Reach.
43:07
We need to see if that seal has opened.
43:11
No rest for the wicked. Hey little one, are we settling
43:15
into life on the old red one? How long have you 2 been here?
43:20
Oh, we've been here donkeys years now.
43:22
Orion arrived a little before I did.
43:25
Would you believe he never said a single word to anyone before
43:28
he met me? Yeah, I'll show him up now.
43:31
We can't all pick up show it. You met up here.
43:37
Ellen assigned us to work together, thought it'd bring him
43:41
out of his shell. You can see how that turned out.
43:45
It was hard back on Earth. I'm happy here.
43:51
It gets easier, little one, and you've got us now, so chin up.
43:57
Eh, is your work so relentless, little scout?
44:04
You Remember Me this time. I remember everything.
44:12
This is the road to the old drift mines an unstable place.
44:17
Gravity corrodes at great depth. We never truly understood that
44:23
at the time. You should take care.
44:29
All in a day's work. Yes, So I hear.
44:34
Pardon my intrusion, but what business could you possibly have
44:39
down there? I'm being sent to apprehend a
44:43
wanted man, Yurian Caldecott. He's dangerous.
44:48
Is he now? Well, that won't do.
44:54
Here, let me open up the path for you.
44:58
A dangerous man. Forbidden Door keep out.
45:23
Goodbye. Excuse me?
45:28
Forbidden door. The door is forbidden.
45:31
Go away. Does the door lead to the
45:36
reactor? It's none of your business, but
45:41
no. OK.
45:44
Do you happen to know how to get to the reactor?
45:47
Shelter, have mercy. Listen, if I tell you, will you
45:50
leave me in peace? Should have stayed in my lift.
45:54
At least it was quiet there. Bloody react to this.
45:56
Bloody react to that. This is the quickest way to get
46:03
rid of me. Well, it's on the other side of
46:06
the rails, you see, and the problem with that is only twins
46:10
can ride the rails. There must be others like you.
46:17
Maybe I haven't seen any. All I've seen is this door.
46:38
Oh, you've bloody gone and done it now, haven't you?
46:42
200 years I've been guarding this door. 200 and not so much
46:46
as a Creek. That's it.
46:48
I'm out. I don't care if the All Father
46:51
strikes me blind. That's got you so spooked.
46:57
Not an ounce of survival instinct in you, is there?
47:01
I don't know why the old Father sealed that temple, but I'm not
47:03
sticking around to see what comes out.
47:27
Didn't have invincible scout on my abyss bingo card, but every
47:32
day's in your adventure. Why is that door so forbidden?
47:39
Finally, an intelligent question.
47:42
That place is a temple for a long dead God.
47:45
Manny, child of Luna. No entry strictly forbidden.
47:51
If this Manny is dead, why did the old father seal it?
47:56
What's he so afraid of? Oh, I don't know.
47:58
Not like anyone tells me anything and I don't dare ask.
48:02
I'm done with all that now. I'm going home.
48:05
Might even get halfway there if I'm lucky.
48:07
Are you going back to Ellie? Wait, how do you know about
48:11
them? You're Otis, aren't you?
48:19
Ellie talks about you a lot. I think they miss you.
48:25
I never thought I'd see my twin again, never even let myself
48:28
hope that I'd go home someday. If the old father catches me,
48:33
he'll kill me. But first he has to catch you.
48:36
Listen, if you see Ellie again, don't tell them you saw me in
48:43
case I don't make it home. Let them keep thinking I'm
48:47
living it up somewhere out there.
48:49
All right, parasite. Barging in here, what gives you
48:56
the? Right Silent 1 delights in your
49:04
ignorance. You've come to bring me back,
49:51
haven't you? Back to.
49:55
Where Home. Back to the collective.
50:03
You always said he'd come back for me.
50:10
I don't know what the collective is.
50:13
No, no, that isn't right. It can't be.
50:20
He promised. He promised me.
50:24
Please I want to go home. I'm sorry I.
50:34
I'm all alone again. He wore the mantle of All Father
50:49
like an I'll fitting crown, a role foisted upon him by
50:55
necessity. He was a humble man then, an
51:03
ordinary man, surrounding himself with comrades whom he
51:08
called family. I am nothing without you, he
51:16
told them. Wings of the All Father, those
51:22
who knew him best, who loved him best.
51:29
Of course she would bring it to him.
51:33
Letitia, child of nowhere, daughter of the Collective, she
51:38
who found the God's soul. The answer, the answer.
51:47
A gift to the old father, she said.
51:51
And so he took it, and it was too late to go back.
52:00
When the Scourge came, not even the great man of fate could
52:06
spare them. She chose sacrifice like the one
52:23
before her and hoped that someday she might return home.
52:31
It was the only lie he ever told her.
52:36
She locked herself away out of choice.
52:41
Her terrible fate to spare her from one far worse.
52:47
A chaos he created, and so he hid the truth from her for fear
52:54
that she would hate him. The dead tell them tales, but
53:01
there are those who yet to live. You mean Yurian?
53:17
I realized it too late, but I've always been too late.
53:27
It wasn't your fault. Funny, he used to tell me that
53:33
too. He was so kind to me, they all
53:39
were. I wish you'd take me back to
53:43
them. I wish I knew how.
53:51
Maybe all of this is for the best.
54:08
Someone once told me that the abyss is a spider swept for lost
54:11
souls. I think I understand what they
54:15
meant now. How did she end up there in the
54:20
first place? The Drift has strange currents.
54:25
Luna only knows where you'll end up if you let it carry you.
54:30
After all this time, the Abyss is still capable of surprising
54:34
me. Who were the collective Aylan?
54:39
I don't know, but they must have meant a lot to her.
54:44
She sounded so lonely. What about the temple?
54:50
Do you know anything about that? I told you before, the Church's
54:55
teachings were mostly lost in the Scourge gods and temples and
55:00
collectives. I don't know anything about
55:05
those things. I only know what the old Father
55:08
tells me. I guess I know less than I
55:12
thought. I guess so.
55:16
Anyway, all that really matters is that you get the job done.
55:20
So let's forget about it. Get some rest.
55:24
Tomorrow we'll head back to King's Reach and see if the way
55:26
to Graymont is open. Fox, I've been combing my
55:32
archives for information on this collective.
55:34
Leticia mentioned there is not much to go on, but it seems like
55:40
they were the All Father's inner circle prior to the Scourge.
55:45
Those adrift, William and Leticia, They belonged to the
55:49
collective, along with one Yurian Caldecott.
55:59
It's not a coincidence, is it? No, I don't think so.
56:07
Aylan, what do you actually know about the old father?
56:14
That's a rather weighty question.
56:20
Have you even met him? Not in person, no.
56:28
Anyway, none of this is getting you any closer to Graymont.
56:36
Why did urine choose Graymont of all places?
56:42
Prior to the Scourge, it was the most important place in the
56:45
Abyss. The history of the Abyss is
56:50
fragmented. All I really know is that
56:52
Graymont was once a site of pilgrimage and the Scourge came
57:00
and the All Fathers sealed the city and, well, here we are.
57:07
I guess we'll have to find out the rest ourselves.
57:10
Let's get going. What?
57:14
Tidings do you bring Scout? What are you doing here?
57:21
What happened to the commune? It's been consumed, and some of
57:26
our own with it. We failed to sharpen our knives
57:31
against the darkness that is our burden to bear.
57:40
What darkness? Something moves beneath us, I
57:48
hear it whisper at night. It wasn't your fault.
57:55
A beautiful. Lie with that we might believe
57:59
it. Go safe into those silent
58:03
fields, won't you? We've already lost enough.
58:16
Tickets Please show us your tickets What do you think of my
58:19
Flash new job? You're really going up in the
58:26
world. I shall choose to ignore that.
58:32
Don't you miss your lift? What's to miss?
58:36
I have the same kind of fun. Sometimes I go to the North End
58:40
of the line and sometimes I go to the South end of the line.
58:46
The party never stops. Still, the change of scenery is
58:50
nice, rattling past all these old towns.
58:54
I suppose me and Otis must have lived somewhere like that once.
59:01
It must be hard forgetting everything like that.
59:06
Can't miss what you don't remember.
59:09
It's a small life in it, a nice life.
59:12
That's all either of us ever wanted.
59:32
change. Please all change.
59:46
If you wouldn't mind pointing that thing elsewhere, I'd be
59:49
much obliged. You're not going to try to kill
59:59
me? A rare trait among Adrift, but
1:00:03
yes. How is that possible?
1:00:07
A rather bad habit. We didn't think of it as such
1:00:11
back then, but two centuries of reflection tends to change your
1:00:16
perspective on things. I wouldn't know much about that
1:00:23
kind of thing. I suppose you wouldn't.
1:00:28
I'm Johnny, by the way. Lady Johnny of Manchester.
1:00:32
Is this still a Manchester? It's still there.
1:00:38
Oh, that's music to me. Is not that I'd ever go back,
1:00:42
mind. I've never met an aristocrat
1:00:44
before. The church threw me a Ponzi
1:00:49
title in exchange for a few quid.
1:00:53
No need to courtesy on my account.
1:00:57
You bought a Ladyship? They love to pretend that
1:01:02
nobility is genetic, keeps out the riffraff, but it's only a
1:01:07
performance. That's all Aristocrats are
1:01:12
Peacocks with stapled on tails. Are there others like you?
1:01:19
A few those of us who indulge the ritual from time to time.
1:01:25
Of course, we only called it that because it sounds fancier
1:01:29
than huffing drift like paint fumes.
1:01:35
That can't have been healthy. Like Ayahuasca in the desert, my
1:01:39
dear. Visions and portents connection
1:01:44
like we were all only flowers from the same cosmic root.
1:01:48
I do wonder what happened to the others though.
1:01:52
I can't be the only lucid one out here.
1:01:55
Maybe you're the only one I've come across so far.
1:02:00
But you're a bit quick on the old trigger, aren't you?
1:02:04
Maybe they just never got the chance to speak before you shot.
1:02:08
OK. Be careful, Fox.
1:04:04
If you're here to absolve me, don't bother.
1:04:07
I've nothing to repent for. My life has been a lit Wick
1:04:13
since I walked away from him. It was only a matter of time
1:04:18
before he snuffed me out. I didn't think he'd go that far.
1:04:31
No, you're as much his puppet as alien, but that's hardly your
1:04:36
fault. Porn from your homes and dumped
1:04:40
on this miserable rock and still he expects you to say thank you
1:04:45
Sir. Always was an arrogant trick.
1:04:55
Tell me then, why he wanted you dead.
1:05:02
For all his brilliance, Atticus was terribly insecure.
1:05:09
The hilarious thing is, I agreed with him once.
1:05:15
Tear down the church, free the workers of Luna.
1:05:19
It all sounds beautiful, doesn't it?
1:05:23
A collective united by a single vision and hobbled by a single
1:05:29
idiot. But his power wasn't great
1:05:33
enough. His influence wasn't as profound
1:05:36
as he thought it should be. Pathetic men make stupid
1:05:43
choices. Get to the point, Urian, I'm
1:05:49
sick of puzzles. He wanted more.
1:05:53
Isn't that always the point? He wanted more, and the gods
1:05:57
were willing. And so the first child named her
1:06:00
price that which belonged to him.
1:06:03
And no other. An unconscionable choice but for
1:06:07
limitless power. Oh, he'd have sold the world.
1:06:13
He gave her his own daughter. He gave her his only.
1:06:19
Child I was told his daughter died in a tragic accident.
1:06:28
Don't misunderstand, it wasn't callousness, it was stupidity.
1:06:36
A man bargains with a God and thinks he's in control.
1:06:39
What did he expect? That they'd place his Princess
1:06:43
in a box for safekeeping. Did they lie to him?
1:06:48
Oh no. The first child was true to her
1:06:52
word. She built for him a warden of
1:06:56
unparalleled ability, of immense power.
1:07:01
She tore out his soul, and for a moment it lay there in the palm
1:07:06
of her hands, frail and trembling and so very small.
1:07:13
He hated her for it. There's never enough time.
1:07:21
The sleeper will wake soon. It's happening as we speak.
1:07:27
You've one last job to do for me, for Aylan, for every last
1:07:33
person still scraping out an existence in this hideous place
1:07:38
to end the fool's journey. Perhaps he thought that meant
1:07:45
killing me. Why did you have to drag me into
1:07:50
all of this? Because you were there, This
1:07:55
thing inside of you, It is the key to everything.
1:08:00
You can still make all of this right.
1:09:06
You've done well, little scout. You.
1:09:13
Caldecott always taught himself so pious, worshipping at the
1:09:18
feet of the first child as though she were anything but a
1:09:22
monster. You, you're the your father.
1:09:30
Well done. That ought to make all of this
1:09:33
much quicker. Yes, I am the old father, though
1:09:41
I acknowledge the pomposity of the title.
1:09:44
You may call me Atticus. I don't think I want to call you
1:09:48
anything. Dear child, it's only a name.
1:09:54
Call me Beelzebub himself if it makes you happy, but let's speak
1:09:58
frankly now. This sword, I carry the stone in
1:10:03
it's hilt. Do you understand it's
1:10:05
significance? It's the essence that resides at
1:10:09
the heart of a deity that makes them who they are.
1:10:15
This one belonged to Alien you. Took her soul.
1:10:21
A soul, you say? What a curious interpretation
1:10:26
that would be to suppose that she had a soul.
1:10:30
She's in here somewhere. She and my daughter both.
1:10:35
That's the only reason I haven't smashed this damn thing to
1:10:38
pieces. She stole my daughter.
1:10:44
Sounds to me like you gave her away freely.
1:10:47
She tricked me. That bitch got that abomination.
1:10:52
You're precious alien. You understand nothing.
1:10:57
The creature you doubt on is a copy of a copy.
1:11:01
It is a worthless counterfeit. This is what remains of Aylan,
1:11:07
the first child of Luna. She promised she would keep my
1:11:12
daughter safe, but she stole her.
1:11:16
She trapped her in that fucking stone and refused to reverse the
1:11:21
bargain. Fox.
1:11:25
I don't remember. I don't know what he's talking
1:11:28
about. Is the puppet listening?
1:11:33
Good. She'll like this part.
1:11:37
The first child had a brother, equal in power, if not in rank.
1:11:44
His name was Manny. I went to him.
1:11:49
Aren't you tired of it all? I asked him, Second child,
1:11:54
second best, never good enough. I told him.
1:12:00
Give me the power to destroy her, and there will be no God
1:12:06
but you. The Lunar child, Manny, this is
1:12:12
the sword he forged for me. The sword I killed his beloved
1:12:18
sister with. He betrayed his own twin so
1:12:22
willingly. Fickle creatures.
1:12:26
Of course, I'd never let him hold that kind of power money.
1:12:33
I took it all back that day. I stormed Graymont, haunted the
1:12:38
elite down like dogs. And do you know what she said to
1:12:42
me? She said I've been expecting
1:12:48
you. I tore her liar's head from her
1:12:52
body. I reached inside and I took what
1:12:57
remained of her, her soul, as you so romantically put it.
1:13:04
And I heard the abyss scream. Yurian was right about you.
1:13:10
Goodness, you are perceptive. Perhaps you ought to tell the
1:13:15
story, since you know it all already.
1:13:18
Tell me about the Heart of the Abyss.
1:13:21
Didn't he mention it? He was quite adamant that I
1:13:24
mustn't find out about it. At least, he was until I pulled
1:13:29
his fingernails out. It only took three to get him to
1:13:33
sing me. I'd expect it better.
1:13:37
You're a piece of shit. Do you want to know The funny
1:13:40
thing? I already knew.
1:13:44
All I needed was directions map to the heart, and he came
1:13:51
through for me. Yurian, my dear friend, the eye
1:13:57
has opened, the sleeper awoken. All that remains is to slay the
1:14:05
fool, and well, here you are. Turn and turn again, and we too
1:14:54
shall turn. We move in harmony.
1:15:01
It's time to go back. Back to where?
1:15:07
Again. Again this time, but only this
1:15:12
time I wake up. Little wonder.
1:15:24
Leave me alone. You pulled me out into the
1:15:29
drift. You saved me.
1:15:32
I disobeyed the old father. Aileen, thank you.
1:15:41
We're done for today. Go to bed.
1:15:45
Aileen, what he did to you. Oh, to bed, Fox.
1:15:52
You're not a puppet. Are you listening to me, Scout?
1:15:57
I said. We're done.
1:15:59
You want to see how many years insubordination will add to your
1:16:01
sentence? Then keep talking.
1:16:04
Lights out. I was cruel to you yesterday.
1:16:11
It was unfair of me to treat you that way.
1:16:15
I apologize. You had no reason to save me,
1:16:21
but you did. You don't need to apologize.
1:16:25
She's here somewhere inside of me.
1:16:30
Her memories, the shattered fragments of who she was,
1:16:35
they're all in here somewhere. I'm so tired, Fox.
1:16:43
I know. I want to make a bargain with
1:16:47
you. One last job.
1:16:50
If you do this for me, I'll set you free.
1:16:54
You can walk right out of here. The old father, my brother.
1:17:00
They reduced me to this. I was a God.
1:17:03
And now I am nothing. I want revenge.
1:17:10
I want Manny and Atticus dead. I deserve that much.
1:17:15
I can't leave this cell. I can't do anything.
1:17:19
But you can. Do I have a choice?
1:17:23
I could force you. Perhaps I could take control of
1:17:26
your body. A God would do that, wouldn't
1:17:29
they? You have a choice, Fox.
1:17:32
One of them guarantees your freedom.
1:17:35
How do you expect me to kill a God?
1:17:38
The sword many made for the Old Father contains a piece of his
1:17:41
God's soul. Because of his incompleteness,
1:17:45
the Scourge rendered Manny a shell of a God.
1:17:49
The Old Father could have killed him then and there.
1:17:52
But there was one problem. If Manny dies, then the Old
1:17:58
Father's sword is worthless. Instead, he imprisoned Manny in
1:18:03
a distant corner of the abyss, locked him away, and left him to
1:18:07
rage in solitude. If you were to find Manny, if
1:18:13
you were to kill him, it would leave the old father almost
1:18:17
powerless. Manny said I'd find him in the
1:18:27
hanging towers. It's a dangerous place, but
1:18:31
you're strong and brave. There's an old route under
1:18:35
King's Reach, up along the pipes.
1:18:38
The abilities Urine gave you should make it accessible.
1:18:41
Will you do it? If it means making things right.
1:18:47
Thank you. Let's go then to the hanging
1:18:51
towers. Yurian how?
1:18:57
No, you're not him. I can't deny the resemblance.
1:19:03
We are the only two guardians down here Often, though I
1:19:08
suspect Yurian considers me unfit for purpose these days.
1:19:13
Who are you? Have I not introduced myself?
1:19:18
I've forgotten my manus. My name is Sylvan, formerly of
1:19:23
Atticus's great collective. But you must know that already
1:19:29
if you've met Yurian. Yurian mentioned you.
1:19:35
He said you were loyal to Atticus.
1:19:38
Still holding that grudge, Izzy. You'd think he'd forgive me
1:19:43
after 2 centuries. Erian always said it was our
1:19:47
cooling to protect the gods, he and I.
1:19:51
By the time I realized he was right, Aiden was dead and I did
1:19:58
a poor job of protecting money to my great fame.
1:20:03
You want to see what became of money, don't you?
1:20:08
Then go. I won't stand in your way.
1:20:12
No. Well, if it isn't our scout
1:20:16
without a one. Hello little one, you're a long
1:20:21
way off the ground. What are you doing up here?
1:20:24
Did you upset Aileen or something?
1:20:28
What do you know about the towers?
1:20:31
Funny old place this. They used to call the higher
1:20:35
reaches Manny's Folly. No idea why.
1:20:40
Terrific view, so I'm told. If you can get there that is.
1:20:44
My dear Orion doesn't have the stomach for eyes, and I don't
1:20:47
have the art to leave him behind.
1:20:51
Well. Didn't anyone think of
1:20:58
installing a lift? I'm afraid Shaq's pony is as
1:21:02
luxurious as it gets for us. They'll need a body like ours.
1:21:06
Effort. I'd lend you mine, but I'm
1:21:09
rather attached to it. There must be others like you
1:21:15
around. Don't see your dead ones.
1:21:19
No, I don't suppose that helps you much.
1:21:21
I'd offer you a ride, but I'm not sure how much higher Orion
1:21:24
wants to climb. I'm sorry.
1:21:29
No need to apologize, I'm not keen on heights myself.
1:21:34
Stay safe boys. Climb safe little one, Don't get
1:21:38
lost in the clowns. Dead yet?
1:21:44
I see why Yurian took a shine to you.
1:21:47
He had a soft spot for stubborn people.
1:21:55
Were you and Yurian close? He would often say it was the
1:21:59
two of us against the world. I think he truly believed it.
1:22:06
Yurian warned me a long time before he told me he saw a great
1:22:11
darkness in Atticus. I thought he was being dramatic.
1:22:15
Attic or fool me, tell me, is it there?
1:22:23
Can the created one hear me? You talking about Aylan?
1:22:31
Atticus named it after her, Did he?
1:22:35
How sentimental. It's my fault she's dead.
1:22:39
You know. I let Atticus blind me with his
1:22:43
brilliance. I let him poison money with.
1:22:49
I put every last trouble faith into him.
1:22:52
I believed with all my heart. I'll sit you a bit of me.
1:22:58
We will stop meeting like this. People will talk.
1:23:06
What people? You're the only other scouts I
1:23:08
know. I suppose it is a bit sparse on
1:23:11
the scout from these days here the Ryan.
1:23:15
What happened to Juno? Used to see them up here all the
1:23:17
time. They climbed too high and
1:23:20
disappeared years ago, don't you remember?
1:23:24
Has it been that long? Time flies when you're having
1:23:28
fun. He's got a point though.
1:23:31
This isn't the safest of places, even for veterans like us.
1:23:37
And you haven't even been here 5 minutes.
1:23:40
There's. Bad things up there.
1:23:45
And it gets more dangerous the higher you climb.
1:23:49
Far be it for me to question the boss lady and all, but.
1:23:54
I almost died yesterday and Aylan saved me.
1:23:59
I I don't know how to explain it all, but please trust me when I
1:24:02
say you need to go back down. We live on the bloody moon,
1:24:06
little one. We've practice in believing
1:24:09
unbelievable things. I'll tell you all about it when
1:24:17
we're safely on the ground. I'll get them, Orion.
1:24:22
They think the ground's still there.
1:24:25
I think the altitude of getting to them.
1:24:28
I'm grand love, just old age catching up to me.
1:24:33
Let me just catch my breath for a bit.
1:24:35
Hey, I'll see you in one, little one.
1:24:41
You truly do mean to kill him, don't you?
1:24:48
Have you come to stop me? I couldn't even if I wanted to.
1:24:54
This body is decayed beyond all worth.
1:24:58
The truth is, I'm not opposed to you destroying it all.
1:25:03
Is that wrong of me? All I want is to be free do.
1:25:12
You truly suppose that killing money will make you free?
1:25:16
Erian told you about the prophecy, didn't he?
1:25:20
Of course he did. Filling your head with all these
1:25:24
unrealised dreams. You have me missing him at this
1:25:30
rate. Did you see the others on your
1:25:33
travels? Well, then, Letty, hi.
1:25:39
Don't think they will relieve them anymore.
1:25:44
I'd hoped Never mind, too late for regrets now.
1:25:52
It's a difficult thing to hold onto yourself when everything
1:25:56
else is gone. I think Manny lost that battle a
1:26:03
long time ago. Everett, please, let's go back
1:26:10
down. We can't love the tube line
1:26:14
doesn't come out this far. The voices got to him, didn't
1:26:24
they? Shoot for the moon, they used to
1:26:27
say. And so we did, and now here we
1:26:31
are. Help me up, won't you?
1:26:35
I'll be late otherwise. And they'd be so patient.
1:26:40
You're hurt. What happened to you are?
1:26:44
You supposed to feel pain in these contraptions?
1:26:47
He's not right. He keeps saying strange things.
1:26:54
Everett, who's been talking to you?
1:26:57
What did they say? Hush now.
1:27:00
Moon's in the sky and the Sky's in the moon.
1:27:04
And we must fly, mustn't we? That's what we do, you and I.
1:27:10
There'll be time enough for dancing at the top of the world.
1:27:17
I'll call Aylan. He needs to be extracted right
1:27:19
away the. Pipes.
1:27:22
The pipes are calling. They always were.
1:27:26
We just weren't listening. This isn't ever.
1:27:30
This isn't him. Don't worry Orion, he's going to
1:27:37
be fine, I promise. All that time we spent upside
1:27:42
down and we were the right way up all along.
1:27:49
Funny, isn't it? Why are you here?
1:28:41
To revel in my defeat. Believe me, you've done enough.
1:28:59
You killed your own sister. I'd do it again 100 times over.
1:29:08
My sister's greed with her own undoing.
1:29:13
We were only ever supposed to be instruments of the Abyss, but
1:29:18
you humans called us gods that went to her head.
1:29:26
We are what you made us. You shaped our form.
1:29:32
You begged for salvation that was never ours, to give you
1:29:37
power that was never yours to hold.
1:29:42
You vain, greedy species. And you, you'll do anything to
1:29:48
free yourself, won't you? Go on then.
1:29:54
Go find the heart. Kill Atticus just like she wants
1:29:59
you to, so starved of affection that you mistake coercion for
1:30:05
kindness. I hope you live a long and happy
1:30:10
life in the palm of her hand. Do you remember when they first
1:30:24
found us? Before we were gods, but we had
1:30:32
no form then, no shape they might recognize.
1:30:37
Understanding their language as I do now.
1:30:40
They might have called us Stardust.
1:30:44
How beautiful it was to commune with them for the first time, to
1:30:49
experience be. They shaped us as gods, and we
1:30:57
took the forms they assigned. We grew powerful.
1:31:01
You grew powerful and I I grew jealous and cruel and small.
1:31:12
Despite my divinity, I became almost human.
1:31:19
I think I shall be glad to be Stardust once more.
1:31:34
We can't feel him anymore. He's gone, isn't he?
1:31:41
You got your revenge, how does it feel?
1:31:48
Did you think I'd have a change of heart Then I'd regret it?
1:31:53
I don't. Not for a moment.
1:31:57
Does that disappoint you? No, you took back the choice he
1:32:02
stole from you. I envy you, actually.
1:32:04
What? Was taken from.
1:32:08
You when they brought me here. Everything.
1:32:13
Red eyes bring ruin. That's what they say back on
1:32:16
Earth. There's sick things, curse
1:32:20
things where horror stories people tell to scare their kids
1:32:23
into being good. A monster is never born a
1:32:28
monster. We tear away their humanity,
1:32:32
strip by rotten strip, and revile what remains.
1:32:37
We bury them deep, pretend they're not like us, and when
1:32:40
they cry, when they hurt, we tell ourselves it doesn't matter
1:32:46
because it keeps us safe. There is no single force on
1:32:50
earth more powerful than fear, Not even mercy, not even love.
1:32:58
It wasn't your fault. No, it was his.
1:33:04
He made a monster of himself. He carved his own humanity away,
1:33:10
and we are the ones who suffer for it.
1:33:13
I won't let you suffer anymore. I have that power now.
1:33:19
You gave it back to me. You look tired.
1:33:40
I killed a God today that kind of takes out of you.
1:33:45
I suppose that's true. I've asked so much of you, but
1:33:51
you've taken away the old father's most powerful asset.
1:33:56
His Warden is strong, but you're faster, sharper.
1:34:01
Those things will keep you alive.
1:34:04
The Abyss keeps its own time. It chooses when to reveal the
1:34:08
heart. Neither I nor the old Father can
1:34:11
hasten the process. Until then, all we can do is
1:34:15
wait. Rest while you can.
1:34:19
I need you ready to go at a moment's notice.
1:34:24
It's time to go. I know where the old Father is
1:34:26
heading. Where are you sending me?
1:34:30
Somewhere you've been before. I realize now why Yurian was
1:34:34
guarding that place down in Sorrows Canyon.
1:34:38
It's known as the Placental Steps.
1:34:40
A cursed place, if you believe the old stories.
1:34:43
When Atticus came to me when I was a God, he told me fate had
1:34:47
discovered it, that the Church must not know of its existence.
1:34:52
At the time I thought it a noble request.
1:34:55
Beyond that door lies a part of the abyss that even my God self
1:34:59
never saw. I don't know why it shows you
1:35:01
that day. Maybe you're in you, or maybe it
1:35:05
was just the lock of the drawer. It'll open for you though, that
1:35:10
much I'm certain of. What will happen if Attica
1:35:16
succeeds? What do you think a man like him
1:35:19
would do with all of that power? I gave him power too, once, for
1:35:24
the good of the people, he said. And now here we are.
1:35:28
It's a selfish wish with selfish ends.
1:35:33
Is that reason enough? Because I could go on.
1:35:39
You've made your point. If I could stop him myself, I'd
1:35:45
do it in a heartbeat. We're both his prisoners.
1:35:50
But I can set you free. I trust you, Fox.
1:35:58
I trust you too. I'm sending you down into King's
1:36:01
Reach one last time. Head to the train station.
1:36:04
I've opened the old route to Sorrows Canyon quickly now.
1:36:09
We can't afford to wait much longer.
1:36:12
You made it back. I was worried about you.
1:36:15
I made it back. He's gone, isn't he?
1:36:26
Orion, I'm so sorry. He was still with me when we
1:36:31
arrived in Kings Reach, hanging on by a thread I called in and
1:36:36
so many times, asking to disconnect, to bring us back
1:36:39
when she wasn't there. As long as I've ever, I can do
1:36:44
anything. I can climb towers, I can reach
1:36:48
the top of the world if I have ever.
1:36:53
Orion. What are you searching for,
1:36:56
little one? Why are you still here?
1:36:59
There's nothing left anymore. I'm going to stop the old
1:37:04
father. He's the reason we're here.
1:37:07
He's the reason for everything. Everything.
1:37:12
I'm all alone and I'm afraid. I'm sorry.
1:37:20
For what? I want to go with him, little
1:37:22
one, before I lose myself, before I.
1:37:27
Turn into you want them. He'd tell you to keep climbing.
1:37:33
He'd want you to see the top of the world, wouldn't he?
1:37:38
Don't leave me alone here. I have one last thing to take
1:37:42
care of and then I'll come back for you, I promise.
1:37:47
Promise. You do talk to yourself a lot,
1:37:56
don't you? I'm not talking to myself,
1:38:02
that's Aylan She. I'm trying to think of a less
1:38:05
insane way to say she lives in my head.
1:38:08
I thought telepathy was just a twin thing.
1:38:14
I wouldn't call it telepathy, more like trespass.
1:38:18
Oh just used to say the same. Never did get used to sharing a
1:38:21
brain. I thought you two were actual
1:38:24
twins. Now you just get shoved
1:38:26
together. You don't get to say in who
1:38:28
you're assigned. When I first met Otis, I didn't
1:38:32
know the first thing about him. Now I know him better than me
1:38:34
own mum. Ellie, if you could see Otis
1:38:41
again, what would you say to him?
1:38:44
I wouldn't. What good would it do now for me
1:38:47
to barge in like his long lost auntie?
1:38:50
I've made my peace with it, and so should you.
1:38:54
But don't you think he must miss you?
1:38:58
You know what the last thing he said to me was?
1:39:01
I said to him, send us a postcard when you get to where
1:39:03
you're going. And he said don't be daft,
1:39:06
you'll be right there with me. You carry people with you
1:39:10
everywhere you go. That's all love is, a little
1:39:13
room in someone's heart where you'll always live.
1:39:19
So you see, I'm with him and he's with me, and that's all I
1:39:23
need to know. I've given you perfect, perfect
1:41:03
loyalty. Keep your word.
1:41:16
Enact the damn ritual. Ever wanted was to protect
1:43:18
Sadie, to give her a better world than the one I grew up in.
1:43:27
All I ever wanted was for her to be proud of me, my little girl.
1:43:48
Daddy, look, Look at all the stars.
1:43:54
Wow, so many. How many do you think there are?
1:44:01
100. I think there might be a few
1:44:07
more than that. And what about that?
1:44:12
Do you know what it is? It's the moon.
1:44:16
Silly. Not just the moon, soon it will
1:44:23
be home. Can you imagine it living all
1:44:29
the way up there where all the stars shine?
1:44:33
It's very far away. I know, battle, but I'll be with
1:44:41
you. Do you remember what I told you
1:44:45
before? That's right, one day we'll look
1:45:02
down at Earth just like we're looking up at that moon right
1:45:06
now. The distance won't matter at
1:45:09
all. You failed.
1:45:20
You did too. In the end, you have no idea
1:45:26
what you've done, do you? Oh.
1:45:34
But I did. Aylan, when did you have you
1:45:41
been here the whole time? You did wonderfully, Fox.
1:45:46
Rest now, I'll take it from here.
1:45:51
What do you mean? What do you?
1:46:11
Oh my child, what's a mirror image we've become?
1:46:33
Where are you taking me? I'm keeping my promise.
1:46:46
You're always. Going to end up here.
1:46:54
The choices you made. Aylan.
1:47:08
It's OK. You won't remember any.
1:47:11
Of this you won't Remember Me, let me.
1:47:20
Free Alan, please don't do this.
