[The doors slam shut behind you; the corridor lights up, showing the jewel encrusted cave walls again. There are no iron gates this time, but the giant pearls seem to have something moving inside. Images that can barely be made out through a fog; on one side is Grace, so much younger and playing happily with her parents. On the other side, a scene of carnage. Grace is telling the story to a girl with red hair, but you can’t make out the voices easily.]

	[The next part of the path lights up, Grace and the same red haired girl fighting a witch together, training together, coming to each others houses for dinner - on the other side, the girl yelling at her, attacking her, Grace isn’t willing to fight seriously or use her guns and ends up losing, crying alone on the ground as the girl walks off.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

[A woman jumps off a building, two girls behind Grace scream and can’t move, but she leaps into action, transforming and catching the woman with ribbons. They run inside a barrier, fighting familiars until they come to the witch. Grace fights, the girls cheering for her; it’s her victory. On the other side, much younger, much less confident, much more scared, she’s on a rooftop confronting a crowd of people trying to throw themselves off. Her words don’t reach them, they fall and she desperately tries to catch them all, crying with relief when she makes it. Then the witch is behind her, furious and huge and terrifying. It takes everything she has to defeat it, to protect those people and get them to safety, and then she goes home alone and injured and cries herself to sleep.]

[She's crying again, but this time it's not alone. Orion and Cetus are around her, Parrot too, trying to calm her down from her frenzy after that. Scenes of them letting her cry on them, of Crown promising that Orion wouldn't leave her. And then it's the night they left for Mirror's shenanigans, Grace is clutching the note they left her tight in her hand and searching around the house for Star, looking for someone. She tries to stay calm, cooks herself dinner alone, at some point she decides to take her memories. Memories of her parents dying and her only friend betraying her and fighting to save a group of suicidal people. She's crying alone to herself again.

Suddenly the pearls turn blood red, tainting the images inside. Something drops onto the floor beside you, water? Look up and you'll see the familiars, high above, watching you and laughing and... Crying? The stone underneath you takes hold, pulling you down.]
