“Crystallis is a living organism. It strives to survive. It is not so different from the Calamity in that it operates on a scale we cannot comprehend. If it sees you as a threat, it will work to see you eliminated.”

Many of you probably want to punch or even kill me, but You know better than to give in to this desire. It knows no such restraint. It is everything you are but that your reject or keep under control. All what you would like to do but think is wrong, all you know to be true but reject, all you would be if you knew no restraints.”

Should the worse happen, your friends might still save you at great risks… But it won’t mean a thing if you do not accept It in the end.”
