Scenario:Yuni - My Name

My Name

When the singularity is destroyed, Cosmos awakens from her slumber and gives her two dragons a new form and the name Yuni, then asks her to find out the singularity's will. Yuni is happy to be given this role but also fears the possibility of Cosmos disappearing.

---

Cosmos: ...

Cosmos: Perhaps it was the right choice to hide me here ever since my creation...

Cosmos: A place far removed from the skies, a secret hidden within the Astral Realm...

Cosmos: Empathy for the primals I view as my brethren. The yearning to form a deeper connection with mortals. Disgust toward the never-ending misery.

Cosmos: It all weighs down on me.

Cosmos: Cosmos must detach herself from this world while taking the meaning of "heart" into account. That is the only way to ensure the swift execution of her duty.

Lucifer: In other words, you're announcing your return to the Astral Realm.

Cosmos: Yes. This version of me will vanish, and Cosmos will continue watching over the Sky Realm from the Astral Realm.

Cosmos: Going forward, the Sky Realm's arbitration will happen absent of my will.

Cosmos: To ensure that this continues as long as I exist...

Cosmos's Envoys: ...

Cosmos: Your role will be paramount once my consciousness enters hibernation.

Cosmos: The moment the scale begins to tip, I will be informed through you.

Cosmos: My surrogates will manifest in the Sky Realm in response.

Cosmos: I trust you can handle this task.

Cosmos's Envoys: ...

Cosmos: The next time we are able to talk like this...

Cosmos: (Either I or the world will be ending.)

Cosmos: ...

Cosmos: I shall be entering my slumber now. Until the fated moment arrives.

Cosmos's Envoys: ...

Cosmos: Perhaps this is the ideal time for that expression...

Cosmos: Good night.

Cosmos's Envoys: ...

Cosmos's envoys exist on the precipice between the skies and herself...

All the while, the envoys share with her the various emotions they see in mortals.

So that she may know what is going on from her Astral hermitage, connected to the Sky Realm by the power of arbitration.

Everyone's collective experiences over time build up within Cosmos.

This goes on for hundreds of years.

Until eventually...

Cosmos: ...

Cosmos's hazy consciousness awakens after a long slumber.

Cosmos: It is time...

Cosmos: It is done. The singularity has been purged through arbitration. However...

Cosmos: The world cries out.

Cosmos: What's more...

Cosmos: ...

Cosmos: Is it because I chose to distance myself from the Sky Realm?

Cosmos: Oh, Lucifer... How this weighs on my heart...

Cosmos: Yet you are no longer here to judge me.

Cosmos: In that case...

The two dragons under her command merge together, taking the form of a young girl.

???: ...

Cosmos: My envoy...

Cosmos: Go and confirm the singularity's wishes in my stead.

???: Yes, Master.

The girl's throat and chest quiver as she utters her very first words.

Cosmos: The Sky Realm, Cosmos's power of arbitration, and the singularity...

Cosmos: The distinction between right and wrong. Which should perish so that the other may live on?

Cosmos: May the answer finally be made clear...

Cosmos: I'm counting on you.

???: Yes... I promise to fulfill my role.

Cosmos: Oh, one more thing...

Cosmos: Yuni.

Yuni: What... is Yuni?

Cosmos: Your name.

Yuni: ...

Cosmos: You'll need a name for when you speak to the singularity.

Yuni: But I...

Cosmos: Go now, Yuni.

Cosmos: Separate yourself from my role of arbitration so that you may carry out your own duty.

The girl descends upon the precipice.

Yuni: I am Cosmos's envoy... My name is Yuni.

Yuni: Yuni...

Yuni: (Will the singularity ask my name?)

Yuni: (I can simply respond with the name Cosmos has given me, but...)

The meeting with the singularity happens before long.

Lyria: Um, excuse me, but... who might you be?

Yuni: I am Yuni.

Lyria: Yuni...

Still coming to grips with her new name...

Every breath the girl takes tickles her body.

Yuni: (I really do exist with this body and name now...)

Yuni: (Cosmos, I shall fulfill my role.)

Yuni: (Even if the singularity's answer should dictate that you must disappear...)

Yuni: ...

Yuni: (What is this sensation... It's as if my body's being torn apart from within.)

Yuni: (Perhaps I'm still getting used to having only one body instead of two... I'm sure it'll start to feel normal soon enough.)

The girl does not yet know the name of the emotion that tugs on her heartstrings.
