"There is no need to apologize Lady Sonia. You have done nothing wrong." She smiled.

"The real reason why I came...is because of Lady Orica..." said Sonia

"What do you mean by that, Lady Sonia?" asked Viviana

"...! Don't tell me... Is she going to confess her true self to Orica?" said Celes deep in thought

"I watched everything what happened earlier, including when Lady Orica talked about Lady Eleanora...and what happened at the end there where you wanted to be brave in order to honor her memory... I...I need to be brave too, but not only for me, but for you too, Lady Orica." said Sonia

"Hmm... I think something else is going to happen here... So many surprises in one day..." said Vermillion deep in thought

Sonia then walked towards Orica as she then goes on her knees while also clenching her hands together close to her chest. Orica was confused as to what's going on as she then comes down to her level.

"What's wrong, Sonia?" asked Orica, acting very worried for her

"I'm sorry... I have a secret that you may want to hear this, but I'm scared that you're not going to believe me...and even worse that you'll shun me..." said Sonia

"Sonia...? What do you mean by that? I'm sure what ever secret it is, I won't be mad or shun you... I promise..." said Orica as she then gives Sonia a hug

She smiled at Lady Sonia. "Lady Sonia. We are all your friends. Trust me. We will understand." She said to her.

"I know, but my biggest concern is Lady Orica since this secret will affect her the most..." said Sonia

Sonia closes her eyes for a few minutes, but then opens them back up in full determination.

"But it's like you said, Lady Orica, you want to be strong and brave for everyone and Miss Moon. That touched me so much that I want to be just like you, and tell you this secret...I only hope that you don't hate me, or the other Great Spirits for this since they have a hand in it too..." said Sonia

"The other Great Spirits? Wait, they know your secret except Lady Orica?" asked Viviana, surprised

"We have our reasons... This secret could end up potentially ruining all of Alexcia... All of our hard work... All of our sacrifices... All of it can be gone in one fell swoop, leaving us very vulnerable... We were very scared at what we did, but at the same time we wanted what's best for you ever since Eleanora passed away." said Celes

"No matter what happens Lady Sonia, I will stand by you." She said.

"Moon is right, I too will stand by you, no matter what happens." said Orica

"Lady Orica... Miss Moon..." said Sonia

"Hmhm... I too will stand with you, Lady Orica, as a hero, protector, and friend." said Vermillion

"Master is right, Lady Sonia. We love and care about you like everyone else here in Alexcia." said Viviana

"Lord Vermillion... Mistress Viviana..." said Sonia

Sonia then gets up as she then let's everyone see her calm, but very sincere, smile while also shedding some tears.

"Thank you all... Thank you all so much... I think I can now tell you my secret." said Sonia

Sonia then looks hard at Orica at first, but then closes her eyes and clenches her hands together in front of her chest again.

"The truth is... My name is not Sonia as it's just a stage name me and the other Great Spirits used... My real name is Ena..." said Ena

"Ena, huh? That's a very nice name." said Viviana

"E...na...? Ah! No... Don't tell me..." said Vermillion as he extremely shocked at the realization

"What's wrong, Master? Why are you so surprised by this?" asked Viviana, acting worried

"Don't you get it? The name Ena has a very strong relation to the name Eleanora if you take out all the other letters except for the beginning E, N, and ending A without arranging them." said Vermillion

"Huh!? ...AH! No way!" said Viviana, who now also gets it, and is very shocked by it

"I'm impressed, Lord Vermillion, you were able to catch on to it so fast." said Ena

"I sort had some suspicions, but they were very minor that I didn't even bother paying any attention to them. All I wanted was to look out and protect you, Lady Sonia--er...Lady Ena..." said Vermillion

*Giggles* "It's okay. You can call me which ever name you prefer, Lord Vermillion." said Ena with a smile

"B-But even then..." said Vermillion as he then blushes from embarrassment

Moon is completely shocked by this news... "W-wow..."

"So that means you were...supposed to be..." said Orica as she was the most shocked by the news and realization

"Yes, Lady Orica, I was created in loving memory of your cherished and best friend, Eleanora. Though I'm still a Homunculus, the other Great Spirits grant me additional power, making me more different from the others. I guess you can call my race a 'Transcendent' because I was made to be similar to the Great Spirits, but in a mechanical body. I know with me being here that I can't ever replace your cherished friend, but I wanted you to know that I want to look out and care for you in anyway I can. The other Great Spirits also wanted this as well, so please..." said Ena

Orica makes her face fall down as her lets out a mild expression across her lips.

"Lady Orica? Are you okay?" She asked and looked to her.

"I got a bad feeling about this... Please, Lady Orica..." said Vermillion deep in thought

"You all kept this secret from me all this time... Why...? Why didn't anyone tell me this...?" said Orica

"We're very sorry, but we were afraid that if you didn't accept this that it could've affected you in such a way that 'it' could've happened to you." said Celes

"So you were afraid of me breaking down, so you constructed this imposter so that she can replace her in order to make me feel better?" said Orica giving out a slightly menacing tone at the end

"Uh oh... My bad hunch was right on the money it seems..." said Vermillion deep in thought

"Everyone... I...I... I HATE YOU ALL!!!" shouted Orica

That outburst created a powerful and forceful shockwave that knocks everyone back. Before Ena was knocked back, Vermillion stood behind her to cushion the fall for her. Viviana also did the same for Moon, though barely didn't make it in time, and thus was hurt more than Vermillion. Orica then ran away to the Great Spirit Chambers, acting with all sorts of bad emotions.

~Lady Orica! Please wait!~ She thought to her. She teleported to her and followed her. She stopped right in front of her. She held her by her shoulders. "Look into my eyes." She says as she stares at Lady Orica calmly. "Trust me. I didn't know...She's not here to take Eleanora's place...She's said this already. Calm down." she said to her. She kept her ground firm...She wasn't moving any time soon.

"They kept this secret from me for 20 years! I should know since I was there during her creation. I was wondering why, during many times, that the others have secret meetings without me, and this proves that they were planning this the entire time behind my back without my consent. I hate her! I hate my allies that backstabbed me! I hate everyone!" said Orica

As much as Orica wanted to shake her off, doing so would make her fall as where they were at is high above the Golden Castle. Meanwhile, a small entryway opened behind them as it was Vermillion staring at the two high above.

"Miss Moon, I don't know what you just did to get yourself up there, but please come back down! It's dangerous to be right there without the pathway leading to the Great Spirit Chambers!" shouted Vermillion

"Lady Orica...Look into my eyes...Please...I didn't back stab you...I didn't even know..." She hugged her. She wasn't gonna let go either...

"Let me go, Moon!" shouted Orica

"Listen to me." She said. She pulled back and looked her in the eye. "Listen to me. You need to calm down. I promise I'm not gonna back stab you...I promise...I'll always stand with you..." She said to her. She looked her in the eyes. "I'm not letting go. Not yet. I'm never going to hurt you like that Lady Orica...I promise." She used her warmth and transferred it to help Lady Orica calm down...

"I don't hate you... I know you didn't backstab me, but I hate my so called 'friends' from hiding this secret away from me, thinking that they can replace my cherished friend with that fake. Now please... Let me go, or else I'll ram right through the barrier of the Great Spirit Chamber." said Orica

"...! Did I hear Lady Orica said that she's going to ram right through the Great Spirit Chamber? If she does that, Moon is going to fall since she can't go through it. I need to activate the bridge!" said Vermillion deep in thought

Vermillion then starts to create the bridge that connects the back of the Cathedral and the Great Spirit Chamber, however the process is slow as bridge builds itself slowly from one end to the other, and at this rate Moon will fall before the bridge is fully completed.

"No. I'm not letting go." She said. "Listen to me...I know what they did was wrong...They should've told you, but they didn't because they were afraid of what would happen...They were afraid something like this would happen...I'm not letting go. If you do decide to ram through the barrier, let me just say that I am your friend. I will never lie or keep secrets from you. No matter what happens. I will always be your friend." She stood her ground and continued to hold onto Lady Orica.

"You're so nice... Unlike those 'friends' back there... Then in that case, we don't we two have a chat just the two of us." said Orica

Orica then flies straight ahead at the long tower which is essentially the Great Spirit Chamber. As they were about to collide at the barrier, Vermillion calls out to Moon's name.

"MOON!!!" shouted Vermillion

Both Orica and Moon phased right through the barrier as they entered the Great Spirit Chambers together.

"What!? M-Moon...how...? It must be Lady Orica's doing. No one cannot pass through the magical barrier that we and the Great Spirits have setted up here unless if the Great Spirits specifically requested the person or people's presence. I hate to say this, but I looks like it's up to Moon to calm down her rage at this point... Heh... Relying on a friend not native here in order to save Alexcia... Oh well... I got other more important things to attend too right now, and I'm going to need some extra help..." said Vermillion

Orica stopped once they entered inside the Great Spirit Chamber

"It's okay to let go of me now... I thought that we can talk here alone, and without the need of you falling since you can't pass through the magical barrier we created." said Orica

She let go. "Lady Orica...I only wished to calm you down. I didn't mean to make you shout at me. I am truly sorry." She said and bowed.

"It's fine...unlike those people...I trust you..." said Orica

Just then, the empty space realize itself to be a very large flower field with numerous amount of different flowers, a few trees, and a beautiful crystal clear lake under a beautiful sunset background.

"Welcome to the Great Spirit Chamber, or at least a section of it. We're in a special kind of magical space that is a compressed sphere on the outside, but it's very big and spacious in the inside. We have complete control of this space able to anything inside of it to anything that we so desire within our minds. A space of perfect tranquilly..." said Orica
