[Love Will Have Its Sacrifices opening theme]
I think I'd like to be dead now.
It's all over.
Your quest.
Everyone who's dead is supposed to be dead now. Right?
I think I'd like to be...
She wouldn't have wanted that.
There are no miracles without sacrifice.
And to redeem a fallen god?
Bitter and twisted with loss?
She did the impossible. This girl who changed the story of the world.
Okay.
She's a miracle.
And you're a god again.
So you can bring her back now.
You know that a sacrifice undone is a sacrifice negated.
You would undo all that is.
I don't care.
Don't be as I was, child.
Don't let grief make you hard and cold.
Some god you are.
Go on then.
Go on!
Just evaporate.
Do whatever it is you do.
Just leave us alone.
As you wish.
I cannot return her to you.
But at least I can save you from suffering as I did once.
[a beat]
[another beat]
[beat, beat, beat]
Oh no.
No!
How dare you!
HOW DARE YOU!
You think I want to be mortal NOW?
After all of this?!
Take it back.
Please take it back.
Perr!
Perr?!
LaFontaine!!
I was all alone in the dark, but I knew-- I knew you'd come find me!
Oh! Ohh, it's okay! I'm choosing to see this as an opportunity for a laser eye. You know I've always wanted a laser eye.
You are so strange.
Wait- wait did- did you jab me in the neck with a syringe full of experimental nanobots?
Maybe. Almost none of the test rats’ heads exploded.
What- what- what happened here?
Y’know. Final battle. Big Sacrifices. You were possessed by a god for awhile.
That would explain the--
Poor Laura!
Poor Carmilla!
We should go get some help. Or at the very least a first aid kit.
I think we’re a little beyond first aid here, Perr.
Still...
I missed you weirdo!
Control freak!
Oh, hey Kirsch!
Sorry sweetheart.
She offered and I didn't see another way.
You knew.
You and your boss.
You knew what would happen if she came down here.
Maybe.
Just another regret to take with you when you go then.
Or maybe I’ve done enough.
Maybe I've earned my rest.
Enjoy your life, little Mircalla Karnstein.
My life.
Yes.
My life.
My life. That deal she made.
She came down here and she- she sacrificed her heart as a talisman, in return for my life.
Me, and Betty Crocker-
Carmilla, what--
I have something your Death Goddess wants.
Me.
My death.
A life to gamble for a life.
Don’t be a fool.
Take your borrowed years and live.
Don’t fling yourself into the Long Dark.
The Queen of Blood and Ashes won’t go easy on you.
You aren’t some innocent co-ed out to save the world.
For three hundred years you were death.
You know better than to think the world is like that.
No.
No!
This is NOT how her story ends!
Screw that.
Screw giving up!
Screw just letting go!
Pick any game you want.
Tonight I'll kill a god if I have to.
You cannot see me, touch me, or hear me.
I lie behind the stars and alter waht is real.
Close your eyes and I come near.
I am what you really fear.
What am I?
You said she wasn't going to go easy on me Mattie.
The dark.
The answer to your Death God’s riddle is the dark.
It seems even death can be merciful from time to time.
And you did just stop the end of the world.
See you around, Sis,
[coughing]
Like- like I always wanted to go to Paris. Or London.
Or- or just the world, I just wanted to travel--
Don't take this the wrong way or anything but--
why am I not dead?
And--
Do you have a heartbeat?
