    Summary

    To humanity, the definition of Humanity was complicated. Sometimes they use this word to describe either a persons malice and violent actions, other times it was used to describe the good inside someone.

    But to the Gods, they couldn't care less how the word is defined so long as they're worshipped.

    Brunhilde takes their lack of defining and abuses the shit out of it.

    Welcome to Ragnarok, the Ultimate Battle between God and Mankind! And the champions leading the charge against the deities...

    ...are not quite human themselves.

    Summary

    Shortly after travelling back into the past, Lucina comes upon a rather peculiar young man, with an even stranger sword. Shulk, on the other hand, finds himself alone with the Monado in a bizarre new world, and the distinct feeling that plenty of things that he can't remember happened since he headed out to the Mechon Wreckage Site. And for both of them there is one question: how does changing the future work, anyway?

    Summary

    When the vision came to Shulk, it seemed obvious what he had to do... Dickson leaning out over the edge of the metal flooring and the sudden appearance of the aerial mechon knocking him into the gaping chasm that plunged through the chest of the Mechonis.

    Shulk tries to save Dickson, but in doing so, Shulk and Alvis end up falling through the Mechonis.

    And it’s a long way back up.

    Summary

    Shulk stood between the meeting of two worlds. Something rippled beneath his feet, rumbling deep along the scars of an unsteady reality. The empty above shone blue, then red, then black. One star burned brighter than the rest.

    There was a dead god, some ways away. He was silent. He was still. He would speak, given time to think and grieve.

    But in that short reprieve, one star streaked down from the sky.

    “Good morning,” it said, and suddenly Shulk knew: Alvis. We were friends, once. “We have a great deal of work ahead of us.”

    In which Shulk navigates a world of his own creation, between an end and a beginning.

    Shulk is alone when Zanza makes his offer.

    Summary

    “I...I’m afraid I may not live up to your expectations,” Alvis confessed, twisting a part of his hair behind his ear, “I have witnessed firsthand how life can be cruel, that the decisions you make can lead to life being taken away.”

    “You’re afraid that you’ll hurt people? I was scared of that too, even when I had the Mona - when I had you.” Shulk told him, “But I don’t think you’d need to worry about that at all. Because now you’ll have me.”

    (Shulk has a dream and sees Alvis long after the events of the main story.)
