CLOVER

[You're in your barn! That doesn't seem so bad--oh, oh wait, you're in the air.

Your barn, and honestly some of your stuff, is just floating on clouds. You can walk on the clouds too if you want, no one's stopping you. You will not, however, be able to return to the ground, far, far below you, no matter what you do.

At least not til the Ritual is complete.

Floating among everything else is your priest, who seems to have fallen into a deep sleep, and the barn's crystal flower.

After a moment, you hear voices resonating from the crystal flower--the holy beasts, their voices and minds melded as one, call out to you.

It asks your Flock 3 simple questions.]

Seriously.

[ ... ]

But, um... Realtalk for a moment? I wouldn't be, like... offended if you chose him over us.

It's not about offending anyone...

Is it so much to ask to no longer have to choose? I'm sick of losing people I care about.

Zenith.

I know we like to play things straight. But... I think it's time to let that be your answer. If that's what you want, then that's what you want.

...I can't break my own rule.

Who says you can't?

It's called character development.

I do.

It's embarrassing.

S'okay, shep. Live for yourself for once.

You don't get to tell me that.

Why not?

Because.

You're not so bad, shep.

No way.

It's never embarrassing to admit you care about people.

Hmph... maybe not for you...

I promise I won't tell anyone if you break your own rules and say what you actually want. You can keep your image.

Fine, whatever. But none of this leaves this stupid room.

Kehehehe! Yer already neck-deep in this shit, boss!

Why do these stupid rituals have to make everything public...

'Cause it's gotta call ya on yer shit one last time.

How irritating. They couldn't just let it go, huh.

[ ???? ???????? ? ]

And what rule is that?

No loopholes.

Oh, that rule.

I mean, normally I'd agree... But maybe we should be more honest with ourselves just this once.

I suppose it's difficult to loophole a question like this, anyway.

If it helps, I don't think we're going to get stabbed for it this time.

Probably.

No, perhaps not... but it feels a little more consequential.
