TRANSCRIPT:
panel 1: Tera lights up, really enjoying this excuse to brag about something no one else cares about. Tera: "I am the 20-time reigning champion of the Tenobia "find the manuscript" competition!" Next to Tera is a little drawing of Tera holding a trophy that says '20' on it. Behind her are a stack of similar trophies. Other students look at her with irritation. Chaar nervously tries to match Tera's hype, but she doesn't know what this is. Chaar: "Oh- oh! Wow..?"
panel 2: Tera continues talking (off-screen): "This measly archive will be a walk in the park!" Eithne hunches over a bit more, looking older and more tired, and most of all, concerned for these two. Eithne: "Goddess.. Keep them safe.."
panel 3: We cut to a black void, where Bon is talking to a voice he's hearing. He holds Hana's little teal earring out in front of him, glaring at it. Voice: "You should have tried harder to give it back." Bon: "You think I don't know that?" Voice: "You should have forced him to take it back." Bon: "He- he's too stubborn! He would have just made a big fuss and then-" The voice interjects: "It's your fault for not convincing him to work with her." Bon: "I tried-!" Voice: "He's doomed now."
panel 4: Voice: "Hana won't save himself. Tera's plan will have them recaptured in an instant. Someone has to..." Bon looks to the side with some kind of resolve. Bon: "Someone has to make sure they get out.." Voice (continues): "Do what they won't.." Bon holds out his hand, not holding the earring, and let's it heat up, dripping with lava and exposing his lava bones. Bon: "And that no one here can follow them..." Voice: "Someone has to finish this for good."
