| The mission continues: As Ain uses his power, the corruption and chaos infested within further corrodes and distorts his body, and the traces of Henir expand and become painfully obvious.
| | Ain carries on with the mission but as he continues to use his power, the chaos and the corruption further corrodes his body. Traces of Henir also emerge and become painfully obvious. He continues to suffer through the agony but only to continue his mission. |
|
| |
|
| Ain suffers through the agony, only to complete the mission. | | Ain heads to Feita to receive answers from the Goddess but upon arrival he was overwhelmed by the presence of demonic energy and the sheer number of demons surrounding the area. Ain is unshaken and charges to battle but comes face to face with the Dark El. He becomes consumed by the fully realized Seed of Chaos. |
|
| |
|
| When Ain arrives at the [[4-5|Nasod Foundry]] with the El Search Party, he witnesses the mass production of human made 'Nasods'; averse to their ancient origins, these beings are created with the sole purpose of catering to the needs of their human creators, only to be destroyed when their needs have been met.
| | ''"The mission is for those who will eventually disappear, and I who was created for nothing more than that mission, mean nothing."'' |
|
| |
|
| Ain projects himself, a being made solely for the mission… that will disappear with its completion. Doubt and despair consume Ain, and he questions his future, his very existence. | | Ain ascends from the chaos completely abandoning and Goddess and the mission. |
| | | He has embraced Henir's chaos and ultimately becomes the Ruler of the Abyss. |
| Ain heads to [[Feita]] to receive answers from the Goddess, but upon arrival, he's staggered by the overwhelming presence of demonic energy and the sheer number of demons that surrounded all of Feita. Even then, Ain's faith is unshaken. He believes that all will be made right; all will be cleansed by the touch of the Goddess.
| |
| Charging upon the center of Feita, Ain finds the Dark El, the twisted revenant, purveyor of dark energy that is worshiped by all demons.
| |
| | |
| Ain only knows the El to only be the perfect creation. A source of power that can only be controlled by the Goddess. In seeing the demons' power creep and writhe through the El, so dark, twisted and corrupt… his faith in the Goddess shatters. Just as his faith in the power that binds him to this plane of existence is torn asunder, Ain is ultimately consumed by the fully realized Seed of Chaos.
| |
| Ain, staring into the vast anima of chaos, he no longer feels uneasy as he himself is consumed by chaos. Standing at the edge of the void, where pandemonium and dissonance sow disorder, Ain realizes that creation, from inception to obliteration… all will eventually return to nothing.
| |
| | |
| The mission is for those who will eventually disappear, and I who was created for nothing more than that mission, mean nothing.
| |
| | |
| Ain ascends from the chaos and composes himself. He abandons the Goddess and the mission, embracing the chaos that has been corroding his very soul, Henir's Chaos. At the center of the chaotic storm, Ain becomes the Ruler of the Abyss that turns everything into the perfect form… nothing.
| |
| | |
| In the center of the storm of chaos, Ain becomes the absolute ruler of the Void who returns everything to its perfect state: nothing.
