Act 3 Scene 5:
(Captain Seleene Star-Caster, furious and armed with an Æther handgun, enters the scene, pointing the weapon at Earl Preen)

Captain Seleene Star-Caster: You, Preen, have condemned Narciss to mediocrity and submission. The dreams of dominance shattered, and I swear by the skies, I will avenge Earl Bigot's vision with the flames of retribution!
Captain Seleene Star-Caster: It's not too late, Preen. I'll kill you, assume my rightful place as Countess, and unleash the Ætheric Storm upon the ÆDF fleet. Narciss will still taste victory.
260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSk8O67J5Cq
Protagonist: You’re insane! Dooming hundreds of thousands to die in conflict and countless more to æther sickness in the future. What kind of victory is that?
260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoeOMtLDfDU
Captain Seleene Star-Caster: Victory is never without sacrifice. Sacrifice for Narcissian glory, for dominance. This realm deserves to be reshaped under the rule of Narciss.
260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMWVRnEaIe4
Aeroadmiral Noble: You have no right to the title of Countess, and in the absence of an heir or chosen successor, the High-Exarchs would determine the interim ruler until a proper replacement is chosen.
260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQN9CLFNKbr
Captain Seleene Star-Caster: Don't think the ÆDF can save you. The Adapetus Æther is missing or dead. Your allies will be obliterated soon, and no one is coming to help you.
260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0yC3woUbcC
Captain Seleene Star-Caster: And you, Admiral, meddling in Narcissian affairs? Your reckoning comes sooner than you think.
260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWtOad5eMVj
Captain Seleene Star-Caster: A false Earl, a usurper. The only fitting end is a bullet.
260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOFmEOAQkEk
(The lights black out, there is a sound effect of gun fire accompanied by a scream)
260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHbAUMk983q
(The lights turn back on, Captain Star-Caster falls to the ground, her back is covered in blood)
260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzDqBvAwnke
(The Adapetus Æther, a withered figure, frail and ghastly, steps forward, revealing the effects of the Æther sickness. He is holding an Æther handgun. Beside him, High-Exarch Onyx holds a gun pointed at Exarchs Worce and Lux, who are now captives)
260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡljXOTJwk9G
Adapetus Æther: Good riddance to the chaos. Perhaps now we can restore order.
260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡatSo23XXhH
High-Exarch Onyx: Earl Preen, Exarch Cha met his end at the hands of his own underlings. Chalcrystis is now ruled by Stratocrat Gaml.
260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMIb7KWkwCE
(Exarch Worce, a frail and elderly man in dignified robes of office, begins to protest)
260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0RFVZvoktC
High-Exarch Worce: (reedy voice) I have done nothing wrong! Release me at once!
260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmkomxfa4yI
High-Exarch Onyx: You are too old, Exarch Worce. Your time has come to retire quietly. Your successor will lead Worcestershire into a new era of fast and efficient administration.
260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeyvSzGwkum
(High-Exarch Lux is a small middle-aged man with a rather nasty little moustache)
260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUWazU0uWQX
High-Exarch Lux: (Shouting) Onyx, you useless fool! Release me at once!
260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh7eeRmSWXj
High-Exarch Onyx (Holding the gun steady) You are being held accountable for your unethical experimentation. Prison awaits you, Lux.
260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz7nVDi75yz
(The two men from earlier appear)
260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRiKnkOkSFw
High-Exarch Onyx: Escort former exarch Worce to his country home, and throw Lux into the brig for the time being.
260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEpS3KV2lRl
(Worce and Lux are taken away by the men, who do not return)
260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzBs1ZUPTGT
Adapetus Æther: (Gasps for breath, coughing intermittently) Within the confines of the laboratory, chaos unfolded. The Adapetus Biomechanical, driven by madness, sought to unleash those accursed creatures upon the world. In a desperate act, I wielded an Ætheric Energy Lance, ending her deranged ambitions. (Struggling for breath) However, the toll it took on me was severe, and the Ætheric sickness now courses through my weakened veins, (coughs) a consequence of thwarting the impending catastrophe.
260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrx8rUQKUWV
Adapetus Æther: (Collapses to the ground) Ah, the irony of fate... (coughs weakly) The Ætheric sickness, a relentless executioner of its own architects. My past... filled with the whims of my mentor, the Adapetus Mechanical. (Laughs maniacally) How amusing that I now face the same fate, (gasps for breath) trapped in the cruel jest of destiny. (Laughs again, increasingly erratic) The laughter of cosmic irony echoes through the ages... (Gasps for one final breath and falls silent)
260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Lmlbg7C9U
Protagonist: No... not again...
260Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIeNcj1FyRU
Earl Preen: (Smirking) Well, it seems the Adapeti have a knack for leaving this world with a touch of dark humour.
