+**Stelle:** During Oronyx's trial, a shocking truth struck me: I had long been dead. Only by challenging the Hand of Shadow within fifteen Entry Hours could I reclaim the future stolen from me. With the help of the demigod Cipher, Castorice and I journeyed to Styxia, the Dragonbone City.
+**Dan Heng:** Elsewhere, the citizens' assembly drew near. After winning the Council of Elders' trust, Anaxa ascended Dawncloud and sought an audience with Kephale, the Worldbearing Titan. Castorice revived Netherwing Pollux and soared into the nether realm astride its back, returning both the Coreflame of Death and the Trailblazer's stolen future. Thus, Amphoreus's cycle of life and death was restored.
+**Caelus:** With this, Anaxa completed the proof of his hypothesis regarding creation, casting the pivotal vote at the citzens' assembly — ensuring the "Flame-Chase Journey" would continue. After returning Cerces's Coreflame, he too reached his own end. Now, only the Coreflames of Sky and Worldbearing remain. The Chrysos Heir's journey is drawing to its final chapter...

+{{ :external:amphoreus:manuscript3-2_3.jpg?200|}}
+**Anaxa**\\
+<color #efe4B0>Bearer of Cerces's Divine Authority</color>\\
+In the dwindling twilight of his life, Anaxa touched upon the truth of Amphoreus's cycle, fulfilling a lifelong wish and passing the final trial of Reason.
+> A noble blasphemer, and a forerunner who unveiled a shard of the world's truth — may there yet be a day we meet again.
+> — The Trailblazer & Dan Heng
+**Castorice**\\
+<color #efe4B0>Bearer of Thanatos's Divine Authority</color>\\
+At he sea of flowers' end, Castorice was reunited with her Chrysos Heir twin. She became the new demigod of Death, staying in the nether realm to ferry lost souls alone.
+> When a butterfly rests on the bough of Death, all things bloom once more with the flame of life.
+> — The Trailblazer & Dan Heng
+=== From the Future ===
+**Cipher**\\
+<color #efe4B0>Bearer of Zagreus's Divine Authority</color>\\
+Cipher, a thief as nimble as a cat, channeled the divine powers of the Trickery Titan — guiding us to Styxia, a city stranded on the River of Souls.
+> Need a ride? Look for the flying cat.
+> — The Trailblazer
+**Tribbie, Trinnon, and Trianne**\\
+<color #efe4B0>Bearers of Janus's Divine Authority</color>\\
+Tribbie and Trinnon continued to guide us forward, while Trianne prepared a special gift now resting in our hands.
+> Through the long and radiant journey, their presence is ever unwavering.
+> — Dan Heng
+{{ :external:amphoreus:manuscript3-2_4.jpg?200|}}
+**Mydei**\\
+<color #efe4B0>Bearer of Nikador's Divine Authority</color>\\
+Mydei still battled endlessly against all odds. In the lull before rebirth, his soul appeared in the nether realm.
+> For him, the war is not only among the living — and even here, in this realm of death, we march forward together.
+> — The Trailblazer
+**Aglaea**\\
+<color #efe4B0>Bearer of Mnestia's Divine Authority</color>\\
+On the stage of the Demigod Council, Aglaea stepped into the background, guiding Phainon to the mantle of leadership and recommending Cipher as our guide on the River of Souls. Yet her own soul grew faint, ember-thin — on the verge of burning out.
+> None rival her resolve in leading others and keeping the Flame-Chase Journey alight.
+> — Dan Heng
+**Phainon**\\
+<color #efe4B0>Chrysos Heir in Aedes Elysiae</color>\\
+Phainon spoke from the heart, defending all that everyone's built in the Flame-Chase Journey with a speech as sharp as any blade.
+> He has taken up the burden of deliverance, and with every step, grows into the leader we need.
+> — The Trailblazer
+{{ :external:amphoreus:manuscript3-2_5.jpg?200|}}
+**Hyacine**\\
+As a Sky Priest, Hyacine also studies in the sanctum of the Reason Titan.
+> She who looks to the Sky, also walks with grounded steps.
+> — Dan Heng
+**Mem**\\
+Mem and the Trailblazer have together inherited the divine authority of Oronyx. And now, Mem may speak fluently.
+> With memory upon memory gathered, Mem's grown beyond all expectations!
+> — The Trailblazer
+**Dan Heng**\\
+Dan Heng, delving into the vast archives of the Grove, searched for truths on Amphoreus and a way to save the Trailblazer. Instead, he stumbled upon the secret of Anaxa's soul studies.
+**Trailblazer**\\
+I was reborn! I — who had died upon first arriving in Amphoreus — have finally returned to the world of the living, carrying back the vital Coreflame of Death and returning it to the Vortex of Genesis[(The text says 'Chrysos Heir', but that doesn't really make sense because the Trailblazer isn't really returning it to the Chrysos Heirs.)] with my own hands.
