This page originally started as a full video animation before getting reworked into a GIF. It was going to be set to this song from Symphony of the Night.

Frankly, this page sucks. I'm going to retire big animated pages as they take too long to make to be enjoyable, and don't add anything to the story. I've come to hate the GIF format and its limitations; I don't like formatting GIFs for the Prequel fanart booru (which is where most of my readers come from) as that site was never built to allow image sequences without a gross hack, and as far as I know the site doesn't support the less limiting animated WebP format either.

The fire in the background was supposed to be animated. Even though I know I still have the frames somewhere, I'm too lazy to fix it and I'm frankly really tired of working on this page. As a consolation, I can tell you that we won't be in the dark on Sigrid and Katia's places on the celestial board for much longer...
