What Makes the Sky Blue II: Paradise Lost - Chapter 4: Cocoon - Episode 3

When the trio confronts Sandalphon with his crimes against the sky realm, the archangel mildly agrees and offers his apologies. (Captain) and Vyrn are unsure what to make of this change in attitude, but an angry Lyria accuses him of not truly repenting.



Pulled into another world, (Captain) and company are reunited with someone whose face they never expected to see again.
Sandalphon seems just as surprised as they are but nonetheless leads them back to his home.
Sandalphon: You say you were in Canaan? And were pulled inside a strange cocoon?
Sandalphon: ...
Sandalphon: I couldn't say... It sounds like that plume is the key though.
Vyrn: You don't know either, huh? Any idea how we get back?
Sandalphon: I don't know, but you may well find the solution if you look.
Lyria: If? Sandalphon, haven't you tried to leave this place?
Sandalphon: Never. This is where I awoke after the last time we met.
Lucifer: Sandalphon... So I see the discovery of your purpose is what caused you to close off your heart.
Sandalphon: Humph... Call me childish if you wish.
Lucifer: You brought me peace of mind every time I came by the lab.
Lucifer: Your lack of a role allowed me to look upon you as my equal. Your purehearted words would always instill me with such tranquility.
Sandalphon: ...!
Lucifer: Forgive me for not noticing your feelings of inferiority earlier.
Sandalphon: Stop it! Don't think I believe this farce for even a second!
Sandalphon: But it's too late to make amends now! Hate me! Destroy me! Punish me! If you forgive me, my last 2000 years will have been for naught...
Lucifer: I am no less guilty, and so I deserve equal punishment.
Lucifer: Take solace in my core, Sandalphon.
Sandalphon: Lucifer—
Sandalphon: It is not for me to second-guess the will of the supreme primarch.
Sandalphon: I made that mistake once and attempted to destroy the sky realm.
Sandalphon: I owe you three an apology as well. I gladly accept whatever punishment Lucifer has chosen for me.
Vyrn: Yeah, well... It wasn't the kinda thing you can just wipe away with an apology, y'know?
Lyria: ...
Sandalphon: Indeed... That's why I'm ready to undergo whatever punishment is in store.
Vyrn: Punishment... huh?
Lyria: ...
Sandalphon: ...
Silence stretches between them.
Confronting Sandalphon with his crimes, punishing him for them...
Neither will undo the harm he caused.
Their idyllic surroundings mock the futility of the exercise, and the silence finally stretches so long that it snaps.
Sandalphon: Oh. That reminds me.
Lyria: Y-yes?
Sandalphon: You said you thought the supreme primarch was in danger. I can't imagine anything that could actually threaten him, but...
Sandalphon: Feel free to use this as your base of operations until you can find your way back.
Sandalphon: Time holds no sway in this little world. Why not rest a while and refresh yourselves?
Vyrn: What do you mean, "Time holds no sway?"
Lyria: What do you do here then?
Sandalphon: Haha... little enough.
I care for my coffee trees.
Sandalphon: I harvest the fruit they bear, extract the beans, roast them, brew coffee... and drink it.
Sandalphon: I've been repeating that simple cycle for years... decades... perhaps forever.
Sandalphon: It's ludicrous how many years my mind has conjured where time does not exist. At any rate, that is the answer to your question.
Vyrn: Just that... over and over? You'll go loopy!
Sandalphon: Haha... Why waste your concern on a villain like me?
Vyrn: It's not like I forgive you for what you did, but... seeing you like this doesn't sit right...
Lyria: ...
Vyrn: (Captain), Lyria, let's start looking for a way outta here. First—
Lyria: You're lying.
Sandalphon: Hm?
Vyrn: Lyria?
Lyria: Why are you lying, Sandalphon? You haven't actually repented at all!
Sandalphon: ...
