00:00We've arrived at the final phase. The winner of this match will take the final spot among
00:09the victors. Give it up for a long-time contender and first-time finalist.
00:17From this point forward, everything we know about the real world no longer applies. Anything
00:22can happen here. There's something in the depths of this place that feels familiar,
00:27yet also foreign.
00:30The Pilgrimage is not merely a trial to determine the strongest among us, but also a stage upon
00:37which to showcase your individual growth.
00:41The purpose of the Pilgrimage is not only to select strong warriors, but also to collect
00:46contending fire from the battles.
00:49Natlan is only safe from the invasion of the Abyss, while the Sacred Flame burns eternal.
00:59I guess I'll have to wait until the next Pilgrimage. I'm still not sure why our way up chose me
01:19of all people.
01:23It took the combined efforts of the then-Pyro Archon and heroes from every tribe to finally
01:28repel the Abyss. Even so, the effects of the invasion lingered for hundreds of years, only
01:34able to be reversed little by little.
01:37Our current Archon achieved an overwhelming victory. The result was obvious from the beginning.
01:43I... I really want to win this time and become a true warrior!
01:49But through our long history of fighting the Abyss, we've realized things aren't quite so
01:54simple. The Abyss has invaded the Night Kingdom, and has the capacity to read the memories of this
01:59land at any given moment.
02:02Going there? The Night Kingdom?
02:04Only those who triumph over the Abyss earn the right to be revived. Defeat not only means
02:09death, but also the destruction of your ancient name, preventing it from ever being inherited
02:14again.
02:15You heard something from here, didn't you?
02:18Kineet! What is the meaning of this?
02:20Only one way to awaken you all from your willful blindness. More sacrifices must be made.
02:27You'll die if you try to make your way forward. Why don't you just give up?
02:30You want to know why I won't give up?
02:32I should have died five years ago.
02:34Take me as your next sacrifice!
02:40Natlan is on the verge of destruction. It's very possible our nation has less than a year before
02:45total devastation.
02:47Once your ancient name disappears, there's no coming back.
02:55No! Why can't I find him? Why?
02:59Every great display of power comes at a price.
03:03We'll never make it!
03:06That is the tragedy of your short lives. You understand nothing of all-encompassing power.
03:13We shall unite the tribes and save Natlan from its impending doom.
03:23What use is the Gnosis in your hands?
03:29I don't know what you mean, but it sounds like this is about more than the Tereza.
03:35Your plan has reached an impasse, and now it falls to me to create new rules for Natlan.
03:43People like us?
03:45Let our blades do the talking!
