What Makes the Sky Blue II: Paradise Lost - Chapter 5: Remains - Episode 3

Sandalphon clutches Lucifer to his chest as Lucifer breathes his last, unable to see or hear anything around him. He passes the mantle of supreme primarch to the shocked Sandalphon, entrusting him with the protection of the skies.



Sandalphon's feet move forward without his volition, until his strength fails him and he sinks to his knees before Lucifer.
Instinctively he reaches out, clasping what's left of the supreme primarch to his chest.
Sandalphon: How...
What the hell happened!
Lucifer: (Is someone... there?)
Sandalphon: Lucifer! It's me, Sandalphon!
Lucifer: (I've lost all five of my senses... I can neither see nor hear you... if you're even there... So I haven't the luxury of choice.)
Sandalphon: What are you... Who did this? Can't you restore yourself?
Lucifer: (You who reached the unreachable land of Canaan. Whether you be one or many, I must beg a favor.)
Lucifer: (Please. I have a message for the ears of one named Sandalphon. Tell him...)
Lucifer: (Sandalphon, I leave my power and the position of supreme primarch to you.)
Sandalphon: ...!
Lucifer: (We must both atone for the cataclysm which struck the skies.)
Lucifer: (My penance is death. Yours is to live on as protector of this realm.)
Lucifer: (And one day... you must carry out what I could not—)
Lucifer: (The destruction of Lucilius's legacy.)
Sandalphon: What... are you saying?
Sandalphon: Deciding everything on your own...
Sandalphon: Shouldering all the blame, and now...
Sandalphon: Don't do this to me!
Lucifer: (Lucilius's legacy is one of evil. It represents the greatest peril ever to cast its shadow over the sky realm.)
Lucifer: (I stole it from him and sealed it away, but with my death, its revival cannot be far behind. So I beg of you...)
Lucifer: (When all of this is past, I want you to choose your purpose for yourself.)
Lucifer: (The skies are constantly evolving... Nature will take over our roles, and we primarchs can retire... and simply live.)
Sandalphon: The skies, the skies, the skies! All you ever talk about is this worthless realm!
Sandalphon: Go on! Give your powers to me and see what I do with them! I'll send it all down to the Crimson Horizon in flames!
Sandalphon: If you want to stop me, you'll have to—
Lucifer: (Ngh...)
Sandalphon: H-hey! Lucifer!
Lucifer: (I don't... have much time...)
Sandalphon: ...!
Sandalphon: Are you going... to deny yourself down to your final breath?
Sandalphon: Don't you have anything to say, not for the world, but just for yourself!
Lucifer: (That's the end of my message. I'm depending on you.)
Sandalphon: ...
Lucifer: (Ahh...)
Lucifer: (What...
What makes the sky blue?)
Sandalphon: What?
Lucifer: (For thousands of years, people have wondered... And even once they grasped the science, they continued to ask...)
Lucifer: (It struck me... Perhaps a question is really just a wish...)
Lucifer: (Longing for something... yearning for someone... Feeling elation when that desire is realized... pain when denied...)
Lucifer: (Wondering why, how, what to do...
That eternal questioning—wishing—seems to be where evolution leads...)
Sandalphon: Questioning... wishing...
Lucifer: (If I could be granted one request... I'd like to share one more cup of coffee with you... in that shaded garden...)
Lucifer: (Sandal... phon...)
Sandalphon: ...!
Sandalphon: No...
Please, no...
Sandalphon: You're our shining example... Our guiding light...
Sandalphon: This can't happen to you...
Sandalphon: ...
Sandalphon: These pure white wings... don't belong on my back...
Sandalphon: Lucifer...
