Nothing in the hub sets this scene off, and nothing in the game changes when it ends. It runs from the story itself.

No act list names this scene, so a run does not place it in an act. The scene number above is its slot in the full story list, not the order you meet it in a run.

The scene

Odds
And that was that. Final sigil drawn up as it was planned, designed and foretold.
Odds
Damned Circle locked itself away til the next forever. Protected from the tide.
Odds
As for the rest of ‘em…
Odds
Folks just headed back to whatever was left of home.
Odds
Coffee was frankly offended when he returned to find a bustling mill that seemed only to hasten its production in his absence.
Odds
Barging his way through the factory straight into the head office, the alchemist was greeted by Latte, his now elderly niece, sitting behind the mahogany desk.
Odds
After a spirited debate over the subject of succession, the two reached an accord of sorts.
Odds
Coffee agreed to take on a promising protege whilst Latte agreed to hire a new intern.
Odds
Keeping his promise, Rum saddled up with Chicha and the two set sail for the Everwilds, ready for a fight.
Odds
What greeted them was a whole lot of concrete and hardly any jungle.
Odds
The Capital hadn’t just pillaged the Everwilds, it had subsumed it, entombing the brush in an industrial sprawl.
Odds
The Floral Folk had given up their homeland in exchange for recognition as citizens.
Odds
Second class citizens, but at least they were recognized.
Odds
Chicha was none too pleased ‘bout the state of things, and Rum concurred.
Odds
Didn’t take long for the dynamic duo to realize that more industry meant more tech.
Odds
And more tech in the hands of a certain budding star… well, things were about to get a whole lot louder in the Capital.
Odds
Matcha headed back to the crumbling spires he knew awaited him.
Odds
Poor buck struggled without mana, without the power he needed to help the vulnerable.
Odds
Kid was so damn useless, not even the tide wanted anything to do with him.
Odds
Then it clicked.
Odds
Without no mana, Matcha was nothing to the tide. A ghost. Meaning he could go where his fellow mages could not.
Odds
So whilst the rest of academia raged against the swelling tide, Matcha slipped between the waves, gunning it through the rubble and recovering whatever he could carry.
Odds
Tomes, scrolls, scraps of parchment, anything that seemed halfway legible was rescued and returned to Matcha’s people.
Odds
He might not be able to save his home, but he was sure as hell gonna save what it stood for.
Odds
For posterity, of course.
Odds
Then there was the enchantress… and the kid. Still just… holding out hope.
