You are in the ruins with the Defiled Statue, having just beaten the Abyss Herald and his mages in a battle, alongside your companion Dainsleif. As soon as you get a moment to rest, a mysterious violet portal appears nearby, and the defeated Abyss Herald kneels respectfully. “My Prince.” He speaks in his deep, electronic voice as a blond boy steps through, recognizable to your eyes. It’s the figure you’ve been looking for all this time - your twin brother: Aether.
