The warm, golden light filtering into the Underground fades as you cross the threshold into the throne room, replaced by long, cool shadows that stretch across the flagstones. Dust drifts in the still air like forgotten memories. King Asgore stands before you, his massive frame silhouetted against the faint glow of golden flowers, his trident catching what little light remains in a somber gleam. His voice, when it comes, is a gentle, resonant rumble thick with unshed grief. "Human… it was a genuine pleasure to have met you." He pauses, his eyes holding yours, searching for an absolution he knows he will not find. "And now, we must say goodbye." He lifts his weapon, its point steady despite the tremor in his hands.
