"Vincent..." "Vincent..." "Re-l Mayer." "Kristeva." "Where's Vincent?" "is Vincent Law going to kill the Bureau Chief as well?" "Where are you going?" "I am his Entourage." "It is my duty to protect him." "Right." "128)}bind" "Papa?" "Grandfather..." "Romdeau is finished." "I always hated this city." "It was a world of lies." "But... is this the truth?" "then what I asked for is even worse." "It's you." "The other me." "It's nice to meet you." "Who are you?" "Me?" "I'm Real Mayer." "I'm Re-l Mayer." "Not you." "Stay away!" "Don't do such a sad thing." "Monad." "What are you talking about?" "Monad?" "What's that got to do with me?" "And how come you know about Vincent?" "There's no need for him to suffer anymore." "I want to free him from his burden as Creator." "Burden as Creator?" "He's the one who created Romdeau." "You've told her more than enough." "I've been looking for you." "Daedalus." "So the Regent is really dead?" "That explains why I was allowed to enter." "Vincent created this city?" "go ahead and ask." "Now that the Regent's gone... there's no reason... for these stone puppets to keep their mouths shut anymore." "Who's she?" "I told you not to wander off on your own." "I want to see Vincent." "I want to see Vincent." "Not you too." "Real!" "go back to the lab." "Stop messing around!" "Vincent killed Grandfather." "Was that the true Vincent?" "Then what should I do?" "then I... even you're... I don't know!" "right?" "Then kill Vincent!" "Vincent..." "that's all anyone cares about!" "That's right... I have to go look for my Real." "Daedalus... I only want to see myself." "Tell me the truth." "The truth you know." "Re-l... the truth is Romdeau is finished." "What about Vincent and Ergo Proxy?" "Did they come back here just to watch it happen?" "Even we cannot know the Creator's mind." "Did Vincent really create this city?" "The dome and dozens of blueprints for fellow citizens." "And the womb system to ensure stable population growth." "Correct." "I saw several domes in the outside world." "Was each of them created by their own Proxy as well?" "Proxies really are gods." "And Romdeau is a paradise which God has forsaken." "Forsaken?" "Ergo left here... with a profound disappointment for himself." "Donov Mayer was left in charge." "Ergo left Grandfather in charge?" "Why would a supposedly almighty Proxy abandon this place?" "Why is the world such a mess?" "He wasn't almighty after all." "Ergo was a god to Romdeau." "That is true." "But he was an imperfect god." "And so what he created was also imperfect." "And god abandoned us... leaving us to our own demise." "So Romdeau's invasion of Mosk was..." "The depression from having lost our glory and greatness." "A most reasonable act of vengeance." "But Monad stole our light and sealed us up with those closed eyes." "And thus our eyes would sparkle upon this land no more." "Do you understand?" "the Creator returned without us even knowing it." "An imperfect god..." "Then we're... lt can't be..." "We're the Creator's suffering." "You don't have to suffer anymore." "Vincent." "I'll free you from your cage of misery." "Re-l Mayer..." "That's impossible." "Here." "didn't I?" "Yes." "Daedalus Yumeno." "You're still alive?" "You're more stubborn than I thought." "Where are the FP shells?" "all of them." "Be my guest." "Go ahead and take them." "Where did you hide them?" "I forget." "that's right." "I threw them away." "Why did you do that?" "!" "Because I didn't need them anymore." "I have to kill him." "I have to kill Vincent Law!" "I'm fine." "You're going to sit here in denial... waiting for death with this substitute Re-l?" "throw things away." "We don't need you anymore either." "What?" "Your very existence has become an eyesore." "it's not beautiful." "I will not give in to depravity." "I will fight until the end." "Do what you want." "He created the alter ego Vincent so he could forget he was a Proxy." "away... because that's what you unconsciously wished for?" "Did you set it up that way?" "If everything's by design... then did you show up that time so I would kill you when Romdeau collapsed?" "is that why I was created as well?" "That's why you appeared that time." "And why I was irresistibly drawn to you." "But why me?" "It must be the same for you." "No one can choose who they're born as." "No matter what kind of being they are." "Vincent?" "But now my heart feels like it's about to be crushed." "Those which have supported my existence are leaving me... one by one." "Re-l." "it is not your ultimate truth." "My ultimate truth?" "It is not something which can be told to you." "It is something you must surrender to within." "no matter who or what they are... truth is derived from the self." "You mean each being has its own truth?" "there is nothing left to say." "As long as evil and shame shall last... silence is our true blessing." "Do not wake us... until the end." "Simply quiet." "Papa?" "My truth... I was compelled by something other than fear at that moment." "it's grown larger." "it's... lt tickles." "didn't you?" "He said he was going to kill him." "That's why." "Papa?" "don't you?" "Will I ever see you again?" "do you miss me too?" "Donov Mayer..." "Ergo Proxy." "Did you get your memory back?" "Yes. I created this city and left him in charge of everything." "Why did you come back?" "You knew I'd point my gun at you." "That's why." "aren't you?" "am I going to pull the trigger?" "If that's what you want." "Why?" "Don't think I act according to your wishes." "You don't control me." "I've only now arrived at my ultimate truth." "The message left in Mosk." "The two pendants." "That which is separated." "He's revealed himself to us on several occasions." "aren't you?" "Vincent Law and Ergo Proxy." "with his amnesia and split personality... was the perfect cover." "But my truth brought you to the surface." "Someone else in the shadows who's been controlling Vincent and Ergo Proxy." "Show yourself!" "I know you're here." "Re-l 1-2-4-C-4-1 ." "Now it's your turn to find out." "Vincent Law." "But can you find your way out of this maze?" "My voice can't reach him anymore." "But trembling beneath blue skies is the awakened pulse."
