They might grow weaker if something happens to me, but in that case, you can just run from Albion with Casca or whatever." You take your weapons and decide to help Farnese out.
"Bold of you to think I would run. Staying still isn't something I enjoy doing either, so I'll have to pass on whatever you're drawing here." Guts draws his giant sword, ignoring the possibility of them all dying here.
"So you're going after Nina?" Luca asks expecting a good answer.
"No, but I know a few troublemakers who are probably still after her. I'll bring Casca along with me."
"She's safer in the tents, though."
"Every time I let her in someone else's care, it only served for me to run farther away from Casca. I don't care if two marked people draw more enemies than when they're alone, she stays with me." Guts pulls Casca's arm with her as the other girls huddle inside the tents.
"Aaa..." Casca doesn't register why she's being dragged around by Guts, wanting him to let go, something that appears to bring him great sadness.
And off you go, mounting on your horse before feeling a great disturbance in your being once more. The same feeling you got when together with Guts and Casca. Another branded human?
No... This time, you can feel that he's somewhat hostile. Going around and tearing over runes you've made on some tents. Closing your eyes once more, the one responsible for undoing your work finally speaks to you.
<span class="mu-r">"You are undoing their work... Undoing the one event meant to occur in front of such a worthless being such as myself. The ritual shall go on, or else there will be no purpose to all this madness. This is for the love of life. The Perfect World shall be made.</span>
While he definitely has the Od of a sacrificed, he's also too similar to an actual apostle for you to have considered that first. Could someone be both at the same time?
If he really goes through with leaving the enemies ready to harvest more people, none here shall be left alive. How could one consider the end of the world as you know it something positive? Even with your newfound blessings, you're still feeling just as vulnerable as ever in this place. Given how horny the spirits of the orgy cult are, ending up like Casca if you get possessed is definitely a possibility, or worse, doing something akin to Femto to a girl like Farnese.
Farnese... what could she possibly have said to Mozgus to warrant torture to such a devoted martyr of the See?
Getting your weapons, saving Farnese, Hyde and the others, fighting Mozgus, die trying, or lose your mind to the spirits. Which one shall it be?
