This scene occurs after Zidane ascends the Pandemonium tower...
But think for a moment... Isn't life death itself? It must kill other life-forms to survive...
Sometimes it even kills those with whom it shares blood...
To live is to give life meaning, yet one must take others' lives to survive...
A mature civilization becomes aware of this paradox...
Terra's souls will sleep until they forget such nonsense. They will begin a new life in a new dimension.
It's a world in which life and death become one...
That is the dimension in which we are meant to live, as beings that transcend life and death!
Zidane... I'll ask you one more time. Who are you!?
We know more than you... We're not perfect, but we have friends who help us.
That is reason enough for us to live!
Why aren't you asleep with the rest of them?
I exist to wait for a time when this world is without life or death...
I am the absolute controller of this planet!
This is too easy!
The invincible is mine! Now, I have the power to control all souls!
Garland gave me everything without a fight.
The old fool was too busy dealing with him.
Now, only death awaits him.
Poor Garland... Bitten by his own dog...
This is no accident.
Fate has chosen me to become the new ruler of Terra!
Time for me to put on the finishing touches.
You not only broke the seal to Terra, but did me the favor of defeating Garland!
Zidane... You are truly an extraordinary Genome, deserving of my love!
Come on, now! You may sleep alongside the souls of Terra.
For all eternity!
Th-The time is now...
This... is the power of Trance!
Hmph...
I'll show you my true power!
The mighty power of souls! They assault any threat that tries to destroy them!
But a normal Trance won't be enough to defeat you... You're all as resilient as oglops.
Even tiny moogles possess the power of Trance... When I saw that in Gulug Volcano, I came up with a plan.
It was easy. I just needed to borrow the power from wretched souls that can't die...
Where did I acquire it? It was the Invincible, or should I say, that large eyeball in the sky?
The ship sucked up the souls of Madain Sari, the Iifa Tree, Alexandria, to feed upon them...
When it fought Bahamut at the Iifa Tree, the Invincible drew in a powerful spirit... Can you guess to whom it belonged?
The souls trapped inside the Invincible welcomed me with open arms.
They were fed up with being your prisoners, Garland.
So, Master Garland. You are no longer needed. And after you've worked so hard...
I shall rule Terra and Gaia with my unconditional love from now on...
Or should I kill you slowly and painfully to show you my love...
Oh, I've got a great idea! How's this? I'll make you pillars for my castle!
You'll all decorate my castle as a symbol of my eternal kingdom... How do you like that?
Did you leave something behind?
It was too dangerous to let you last any longer than that.
Even as I die, you'll have died without ever leaving your mark on the world...
H-Ha ha ha... What an interesting lie. You're telling me that my life will end soon?
Ha ha ha... Nice try, Garland, but I won't fall for your silly tricks... Garland?
...
Garland!? Answer me!
...I'm finished?
I don't believe you! Why would I believe such a silly story!
You're telling me that I'll die soon, now that I'm more powerful than anyone?
I'm gonna... die!?
Lose my soul...?
Ha... HAHAHAHAHAHA!
What comedy! Zidane, isn't it hilarious!? I'll die just like the black mages I so despise!
I single-handedly brought chaos unto Gaia, but in the end, I'm nothing but a worthless doll!
...Kuja?
I won't... I won't let this world exist without me!
