{Cutscene}

Ikora Rey: A few weeks after the Pyramids fell...

The screen fades in to show the remnants of a now-destroyed Last City, with many Pyramids around it.

Ikora: What was supposed to be a proud day that commemorated our City's glory turned into a massacre the moment The Black Swordsman and The White Angel.

Cross fade to large group of people gathered around as Luther Hargreeves and Rasputin initiate Dawnrise Protocol.

Ikora: But, what traumatized us the most wasn't just the destruction of the Light, but also Zavala's death, and now, what we saw proved to us that no one is safe. Not anymore.

Zoom out to Osiris, arms crossed, standing by Saint-14 carrying a child on his shoulders.

Ikora: We’re deploying Guardians to all corners of the system to find answers and with those answers, we will form a plan.

Pan down to Lucy Heartfilia comforting a child along with many other civilians.

Ikora: In the meantime, we ask that all Lightless civilians remain in the safety of the Sanctuary walls, under the protection of the House of Time.

Pan up to Elisabeth Bray working on an Exo with the Traveler in the background

Ikora: Do not lose hope. Humanity has survived many horrors. We have done so through the strength of our community.

Pan up to Ezra Knightwalker and Gensym Scribe Zhang Chan crafting numerous Vanguard-issued SIVA-fied Häkke and Omolon weapons and Weapons of Sorrow with Failsafe enhancing various Exo Frames

Ikora: Through a steadfast commitment to one another. Stay strong. Be brave.

Cross fade to the Traveler above the Sanctuary

Ikora: The Traveler protected us... and we will protect you. The Guardians will come through. They always do.

The Traveler shifts into an unknown world of Aincrad with corrupted Jumpships, enemy fleets, and Pyramids quickly approaching.

Ikora: Even when dark times like this one are near, you and others like you are living examples of the Light's blazing glory and of what we stand for. We know you'll make the right choice.

Cross fade to Kirito, sitting on his throne with a sinister smile as he holds a Splinter of Darkness.

Ikora: Show these monsters the true powers of the Light.

Fade to black

Gameplay

{Cinematic}

The Guardian look through their scope of their gun as they try to watch the Shadowkeepers' meeting, while the Ghost tries to eavesdrop the Shadows' Conversation through the comms and get it to Eris and Hannah to listen on them. Kirito walks up to the stage while Asuna stands in the background beside Kirito's champions Kotrik, Zharves, Gha'arn, Thu'urg, and Vayeriks, as well as Hydrax floating in the distance as he watches. Crowds of Fallen and Cabal Shadows watch their master as he gives out a speech.

Kirito: My loyal and ambitious subjects, you are here today to finally end your troubles, finally end your griefs over your losses, finally to end your droughts against The Last City's forces...and to finally bring your people's salvation. The wait is finally over, for I, Kirito, Chosen by the Winnower, Champion of the Black Fleet, Bringer to Light's End, will bring you the Salvation and justice that you crave so dearly...

The Audience starts murmuring around the area. Kirito allows them to finish as he speaks again.

Kirito: And to prove my gifts, I will demonstrate the power that none have ever tried...oh Yui?

As he calls out, Kirito's daughter, Yui, teleports a large Crux of Darkness to the arena, Kirito hides a devilish smile as he turn back to the Shadows.

Kirito: WITNESS THE POWER THAT THE WINNOWER HAS BESTOWED TO ME!

He raises his hand to the Crux and he channels his power as he starts to move his hand up in the air as the Crux begins to separate into small pieces, the crowd is full of shock and awe, Asuna forms a smile at Kirito's demonstration as he quickly turns his hand into a fist as the Crux implodes into a large orange bubble. The Crowd start to cheer for Kirito as he then falls to his knees, The Crux would collapse into pieces as he was out of breath from the event. Asuna quickly runs over to him but he has his hand out to stop her.

Kirito: Fine...I'm fine...

He gets up and dusts off his clothing as he looks back to the crowd.

Kirito: As you can see...I have the very power to manipulate even the objects of Darkness. With this, even the Strongest of the Light will fall!

The congregation begins to slowly cheer on for Kirito, as the Guardian continue their aim at Kirito.

Hannah: Kill him now!
Ghost: We're trying to-

Just then, a House of Shadows Marauder would uncloak and intervene with the Guardian, causing them to miss their shot and only grazing Kirito's shoulder. He falls to the ground as he tries to cover the wound. Kotrik and Gha'arn look up to see who did the shot. The Guardian would wrestle against the Marauder and kicks him off the cliff. Kotrik would aim with his Wire Rifle and shoots at the Guardian but misses.
