Panel 1
Close on Vangel standing among the ruins, the burning sun hanging low over a shattered city skyline behind her. She stares into the distance, thoughtful.

Panel 2
Hrunting climbs over rubble with his rifle while Kai walks beside him. Vangel stands behind them on higher ground, suddenly speaking with urgency.
Vangel: “What if we can undo it?”
Kai: “Huh?”
Vangel: “Not just Beln… not just all the people we lost…”
Vangel (continuing): “Everything.”
Vangel (continuing): “The entire Second Revelation.”

Panel 3
Kai turns back toward Vangel, skeptical. Hrunting watches from behind him.
Kai: “The Tree of Life..?”
Hrunting: “You’re crazy.”
Hrunting (continuing): “A lot worse things than Zorn are between us and the tree.”
Hrunting (continuing): “Dunno if you’ve noticed, we’re on our back foot.”

Panel 4
Close on Vangel, determination replacing doubt as she smiles slightly.
Vangel: “Right now, yeah…”
Vangel (continuing): “But with a good plan and some allies…?”
Vangel (continuing): “We could remake the world the way it’s supposed to be instead of just surviving.”

Panel 5
Hrunting glances at her with a rough half-smile while Vangel looks down, thoughtful.
Hrunting: “Hmph… you were a mess back at the sex shop, but now you’re all fired up?”
Vangel: “Yeah.”

Panel 6
Vangel stands at the crest of the rubble overlooking the ruined city. Hrunting kneels nearby while survivors gather below.
Vangel: “…Guess I remembered who I was.”
