[Message from fanfic author Eleya Belle: Hello everyone! This fanfiction has been an immense journey considering this is the hundredth chapter. I would also disclose in this message that at this point, I would consider this a conclusion to the story. There might be potential for a sequel or further chapters, but for now, this is the end. For those who might be dissatisfied with this conclusion, please leave reviews or messages. I would very much like as much response as possible here at the end of the long project. It helped me build a consistency with my writing I would like to continue into my official projects outside of fan fiction.

If enough people comment with desire for continuation of the story or further chapters to explain some plot line left unfinished, perhaps regarding characters which I felt didn't get enough written time (I admit to being too kind as an author here compared to my official projects, with keeping characters alive who don't survive in the canon story). I would like to give some of these characters more time, but I have been putting off my official writing work for some time to focus on getting this fan fiction finished for those who are reading it.

If you would like to read further work of mine, please follow my author page to keep updated for when I begin posting official written projects. I will link wherever I post my official projects there so readers here can follow my writing when it's not sticking to characters who are not my own. Ela, Koeru and Shiro were characters I added to the story who may show up in my official work at some point along the way, but for the time being, I would like to take a short break from the weekly chapter business.

Thank you all for joining me on this long journey. It has been fun, and I gaze emptily forward with my blind eyes to a future where my vision is back (dream, it's not coming back), and I hear the words of supporters confirming that I have achieved a lifelong dream of becoming a recognized author. I hope that some if not all of those who have been keeping up with this project follow me into my future writing, but of course I may never know if people do follow me. I have been thinking that with my official work, potentially even with this fanfic, I might start streaming on twitch. Sessions where I read chapters aloud and speak with viewers at pausing points. This would help with my voice since I have had severe voice loss in the past and have been recuperating it recently. It's simply an idea for now, a possibility for the future. Thank you once again, and please enjoy the final chapter, the conclusion of Sword Art Online: Alternate Feelings. For a work that was only ever to be fun with no serious investment, it ended up very enjoyable as a writing experience.]

"Get back here you little rat! I'll rip your thieving fingers off!"

She ran away ducking under passing carriages and between the legs of passing carriage pulling creatures until she was lost by her pursuer. She looked down to the stale piece of bread she had picked off of the merchant who had been yelling at her. It was barely enough to keep her alive for another day. She struggled to break a piece off of the bread and put it in her mouth, chewing at the hard stale bread. She walked through the alleyways and continued to duck behind boxes and crates until she found herself face to face with a large snarling canine, big enough it could eat her.

She dropped the bread in her terror and backed away slowly. She watched the giant canine walk closer toward her slowly, but then it stopped over where she dropped the bread, and picked it up in its mouth, eating it in one bite.

Her stomach grumbled violently, but she continued to back away. The canine at least left her alone.

"There you are~ time to take your thieving little fingers!"

"Please no! Please..."

She cried.

"I'm starving sir! I just desperately-"

"No excuses! You're a little thieving rat, and I've had enough of you brats stealing my merchandise!"

She was barely able to produce tears. She was in agony. She was dehydrated enough she barely produced tears, her voice was hoarse, and her fingers were cracked.

He looked her over a little more closely.

"Can't even make money selling one as broken as you if I don't take your fingers. No meat on you, nothing to skin, utterly worthless. Best you'd be worth would be as feed for the animals or compost for the crops."

He grabbed her by the neck and dragged her along. She choked and coughed violently as he dragged her, almost going entirely limp from her consciousness fading at the lack of breath and pressure on the nerves.

She was presented to a town guard.

"What can you give me for catching this thieving rat?"

The guard in his overly shining armour shrugged and sighed.

"Another-wait, those ears! That hair! Get your hands off the child, merchant!"

He dropped her and looked in shock between the child and the guard.

"Why do you defend this thief?!"

The guard knelt down and looked her over more closely.

"She might be the last elf in the whole town you cur! Get back to your stall or I'll throw you in the slammer instead! Leave now!"

The girl felt immensely grateful for the generosity of the guard. She breathed heavily, the shock from being dropped and the relief from her neck being held in that strong grip making her cough.

"How dare a filthy merchant lay hands on an elf...oi, what you steal? And where you come from?"

She looked up to the guard who was still looking over her closely. He was handsome under the armour.

"B-bread...I stole the last little slice of bread from a sandwich he left alone for an hour...I watched for a long while, waiting to see if he would eat the rest, but when he didn't-"

She coughed and hacked as if she would expel something which shouldn't be expelled from her insides.

"Ah, so stingy prick decided he'd attack a child when he doesn't even finish his food. Well, stick close to me until shift change shortly and I'll take care of you for a bit. Get you cleaned up and a bit of food and drink in you. You still haven't told me where you're from though lass."

She closed her eyes and thought hard.

"No...I didn't say because I don't know where I'm from. I just found myself in the park beyond those buildings."

She pointed out which buildings she meant and he nodded.

"Then you might be the last after all. There used to be a group of elves who lived in the area, and stayed in the park when they stopped in the town itself since you elves can't survive without connection to natural ground. How long you been here? Oh, and name. Mine's Ollie."

She responded with her name first, trying to remember some concept of time which would explain how long she had been roaming about.

"I'm Koeru. As for how long...I think-I think it's been about three days since I've been here..."

He sighed.

"Then it would be a month before you can be reunited if they're still around. You have a beautiful name. Didn't know elves had such foreign sounding names."

She didn't know where she got her name from, it was just the first one which came to mind and felt it belonged to her. Her memories were sparse, barely in reach.

"How was the mornin'? Anythin' interestin' happen?"

It was very shortly after their greeting finished that another finely decorated guard showed up. Koeru stepped out of the way, hiding behind the leg of the guard who saved her.

"You take a brat into custody?"

Ollie shook his head.

"Nope, this kid's an elf. Didn't know she was shy until now. She was being turned in by the merchant over there, selling the assortment of imported fruits. Everyone knows he's the biggest thief in town. All she did to get on his bad side was take a bite from food he didn't touch for an hour. Stingy prick. So keep an eye on him. Nothing else out of the usual. I'm going to take care of this elf now."

The other guard nodded, then knelt down and smiled in a friendly manner toward Koeru.

"Ollie will take good care of you, kid. He's got a daughter about your age so you might even have a good friend."

Koeru peeked around to see the friendly man who was a little broader in a few senses of the word. He was a gentle giant, so to say. Still a human, but he was a head taller than Ollie who was already extremely tall to her.

"Th-thank you..."

Ollie nudged her lightly with a finger. She grabbed onto that large finger and he led her away.

They wound through the crowded streets until they found themselves in a much less densely populated district of the town where he thumped the door with his other hand a couple of times before opening it.

"Papaaaaa!"

A girl with fiery orange hair tackled Ollie's leg, wrapping her arms around and looking up.

"Welcome home!"

She grinned, a few teeth missing from her toothy smile.

"Glad to be home, my little Bella!"

She giggled, but then noticed Koeru behind him.

"Who's stinky?"

He gave her a hurt expression.

"Goodness, I didn't think I sweat that much. You wound me!"

He made a silly expression.

"Not you, silly papa! Stinky girl behind you! She stinky!"

He righted himself quickly.

"Ah right, this is Koeru, an elf guest who I've promised to take care of for a while. I'd like you to get along with her. Think you could do that for me?"

Bella hummed a little.

"I...will! Papa never brings home friends! Just big stinky old men!"

Koeru blushed. Bella was about the same size as her, but their ages felt very different. Koeru felt she could be as old as Bella's father, but the size of them was difficult to get past. Bella grabbed Koeru's hand and dragged her out in front of Ollie.

"I will take Koeru to the bath and clean her papa! You clean up after because you still stinky!"

Ollie exaggerated his response to her youthful jabs and gave Koeru a smile when Koeru looked back to confirm she was fine. She sighed in relief.

Upon leaving out the door of the other end of the house, Koeru found they were in a closed alley for a moment, a wood slat ceiling above to let air and rain in, a sewer drain in the middle. The slightly angled ground was strange to walk on. Bella dragged Koeru to a door with a bowl like picture on a sign, a person of no description sitting in the bowl. Bella knocked on the door twice before pushing the door open. After closing it behind her, she let go of Koeru's hand and ran up to a counter with an elderly woman sitting behind, sleeping on the counter, snoring.

"Granny Anne! Bath for two under papa Ollie!"

Anne startled from her sleep and glared at Bella for a second, falling back behind the desk after seeing Koeru. She scrambled around the desk on her knees and looked Koeru over.

"You've got a blimey elf with you! Where you meet this raggedy elf?!"

Bella giggled.

"Papa brought her home to give me a friend! I'm getting her cleaned up because she's stinky!"

Anne sighed.

"You be gentle with her, elves aren't as physically strong as us humans. Especially a half giant like us."

She turned and faced Koeru again after warning Bella to be gentle.

"What's your name lass? Need to mark down guest names in the book so their household is properly billed. Even if temporarily, seems you're my boy Ollie's guest. Please enjoy yourself. Oh, and don't go near the big bath. That's for the men."

Koeru nodded, giving a shy smile in response.

Bella grabbed Koeru's hand again and dragged her through the door behind the counter. There was a space with a bunch of shelves, baskets in the shelves and towels inside the baskets. Bella brought them over to a pair of baskets nearer the baths, pulled the baskets out and grabbed a towel out of one, stripping out of her clothes in seconds. Koeru was slowly getting her own clothes off while following the lead. Her clothes had a lot of knots in it to undo in order to get it off. Bella was upset at Koeru taking so long and pulled up on the dress.

The dress tore and Koeru was bleeding around the legs. Bella screamed when she saw what she had done by being so impatient. Koeru's silence was even more mortifying. She just looked down at herself, her dress so suddenly ripped off of her with a few knots yet to be undone.

"I-I-I'm...I'm so sorry Koeru! I should have been more gentle!"

Koeru fell over, unconscious. Her eyes rolled back and Bella ran out to let Anne know about what happened. Anne picked Bella up by the waist and spanked her, taking her back into the baths area, only to see a few of the men moving toward Koeru.

"Get back to your bath you filthy swine! This isn't anything for you married men to see!"

She grabbed a towel from a random shelved basket, tied one end around Bella's wrists and the other around a rafter. As a half giant woman, she easily reached the rafters above with her long arms.

"Your punishment is to sit there and watch until I get the elf healed up. You know better than to undress another person! Your ma told you that several times with your little brother!"

"I'm so sorry granny!"

Anne sighed and got to work. She looked over the wounds and gritted her teeth. Koeru wasn't bleeding much, due to being excessively dehydrated. She was thankful that saved her. After realizing that she got quickly to work because the moist air of the bathhouse would quickly hydrate her. She began binding her up in bandages covered with liquified binding herbs, and gently sat her in the female bath.

"Oi Mari, bring this elf girl out in five minutes and sit her on the bench and put towels over her, I'll be right back with a healer!"

Anne untied the rafter end of Bella's binding towel and carried her over her shoulder. She jogged until they reached the main street and she sprinted. The sight of a giant elderly woman made everyone move to the walls quickly. Her stomps were the warning to make way for her especially since such heavy footsteps would only otherwise come from a monster. It was a good alert for the citizenry.

She stopped in front of a shop with a sign over the door marked with a mortar and pestle. She knocked twice and pushed open the door gently.

"Doc Treven, I need your help with an elf. My fool of a granddaughter ripped the clothes off of her and the damage is immense.

The man of the shop looked at her with a terrified expression, from the stitching he was doing for his current patient.

"Could you wait a minute or take over these stitches then? These are both emergencies and Tina is out on a house call!"

"My hands can't handle stitching anymore, so hurry please."

Treven nodded and swiftly expedited his hands to thread the needle through to bind the prior gaping wound over a mid aged man's stomach. He hurriedly put some binding liquid on a bandage, pressed that over top and chanted something incoherent quickly which bound it.

"Come back in three days, sooner if the bandage comes off with your work. Now take me to the elf!"

Anne nodded and picked up Treven to sit on her shoulder and she sprinted back to the bath house. It took just over five minutes to go back and forth, having Treven on the way back. She put him down and tied Bella back up.

"Think you can heal her?"

Treven had undone the bandages Anne had put on and nodded.

"It'll need magic, but it's always that way with elves. Thankfully humans don't need magic healing so much, so I'm at a full tank of the stuff. Been so long since we've had an injured elf in this town."

He took the bandages all off, pressed his hands together, chanting something incoherent, then traced his fingers over everywhere the fabric had cut her. He sighed in relief when the wounds closed up.

"She's in desperate need of fluids. Not bathing fluids. Can you wash her directly by cloth? I'll go get her something to wear from my shop and some restoration gel."

Bella had been silent the whole time, but it was mostly because she was terrified of her punishment getting any worse. Being exposed to the whole district would be completely mortifying for a guard's daughter of her age. It was punishment enough when her grandmother dragged her out over her shoulder like that to Treven's place and back.

Anne picked up Koeru gently and brought her back next to the bath and set her down on her front, grabbing a cloth from the nearest wall and getting to work. She gently moved the cloth from the bath to Koeru's skin and dabbed it a few times before wiping. She repeated several times, before realizing she was getting exhausted at holding back her strength. A giant couldn't hold back their strength for long.

"Mari, can you take over? I can't keep going without accident."

Mari was an elderly human woman, and she waded through the bath silently complying. She took the cloth and wiped the rest of Koeru's visible backside clean. Anne flipped Koeru on her back just as gently as before, a bit of her restraint restored with Mari's help. Mari got back to work with cleaning Koeru's front. Koeru was moved to have her head over the water after her legs were cleaned.

"She certainly has a lot of freckles. Those are really rare for elves. Perhaps of the royal family? Either that or she's a half."

Anne's words were responded by a huffing Treven who returned with a large bottle of gel in one arm and a basket in the other.

"She's a half. Probably abandoned by her group. It would be difficult for her to live here. Better to get her health restored and have an adventurer bring her to unclaimed land. There are so few of them nowadays I'm not surprised to find a half. Hair that white though, means she was born with it and she's from an old branch of their royals."

Anne frowned.

"So those mightier than titans elves abandoned a child of their royalty...even distantly related that would be horrible."

Treven nodded.

"Well, our town could definitely use the blessing of a strong elf, and as royalty her magic would be immense if she were trained well. Problem is the ego of most of the people here. She's lucky that she got here with the most motherly of all giants."

Anne blushed.

"We're too old to flirt like that you rascal! But I agree. Our barrier has been getting weaker and the monsters have been getting closer. The court mage has been refusing to take on new apprentices too. The ego on him is equal to a dragon. Too bad he's just a weak human. If he really was one of those honorable dragons which were hunted down, we'd never have to worry about the barrier again."

Treven sighed.

"Done. The elf has some gel in her system, she has some clothes ready to change into when she wakes, and her wounds are tended. The only thing left is to let Bella down from her punishment."

Anne nodded and untied Bella. Bella hugged Anne's leg immediately upon being let down.

"I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry ahm shorry..."

Anne took a cloth from the wall and put a tip into Bella's mouth after the third apology.

"Now you better have it through your head to never be rough with an elf. You're lucky to get off with just this much. You'll need to apologize more to Koeru when she wakes up. You've had enough punishment for now, but if she asks to have you punished further, you will have to be punished further. Grown elves are strong enough to completely destroy a town like ours on their own. We need to respect and be gentle with them as those who serve their guests. Understand?"

Bella nodded, rubbing her forehead against Anne's leg.

"Now, get cleaned up since you haven't had the chance to get in yet. And wake Koeru in a few minutes if she doesn't wake up on her own."

She nodded once more and Anne left the bath behind. Treven left ahead of her so it was only bathers left in the bathhouse.

Bella looked over Koeru's cleaned body and she felt overwhelming guilt that she had harmed it. She had dirtied the body of the first friend her father brought home. She was ashamed of herself. She thought immediately that she already lost her new friend so quickly.

She didn't think she could ever thank her grandmother enough for saving Koeru even though she was punished so heavily for the mistake she made. She was reminded repeatedly to be gentle with helping human girls and animal girls, to always be gentle and patient with them. She was impatient by nature though, and she was strong. It was easier as a child giant to hold back her strength and be gentle, but the impatient personality was her biggest downfall. She had hurt other girl guests her age several times before and so she was banned from helping with the bathhouse.

After a few minutes of reflecting, she poked Koeru's cheek gently and whispered in her ear.

"Wakey wakey..."

Koeru's face scrunched a little, she wiped her hand over her eyes and then sat up to look around.

"...where...?"

Bella poked her hip gently.

"Bath. You only need a little more clean, not very stinky anymore. I'm sorry...I hurt you..."

Bella was crying again, but Koeru pat her head in response.

"I'm okay now, am I not? How about for your apology to me, you introduce me to the people I need to thank after this?"

Koeru got into the bath and sighed in relief at the feeling of the warm water washing over her.

"So...are we still friends...?"

Bella got hopeful. Koeru was honestly afraid of saying no, but she also couldn't because the genuine feelings of Bella got through to her.

"We're still friends. Hopefully you didn't go through too much to get me healed."

Bella cried and hugged Koeru, remembering just in time to be gentle. Koeru knew. She knew what Bella went through for her sake. She wanted to be gentle where adults hadn't been. The unfortunate truth was that as an elf, she could understand the more immediate past of a person they come into physical contact with, since people are part of nature and elves need to be in contact with nature. Children especially helped elves be rooted.

"Thank you...!"

She strained through her crying to say it.

Some time passed, and Ela was grimacing through her memories being pried through. She was securing server stability with Higa and logged Kazu from her AR and back into Underworld through the server. It unfortunately took time. Koeru fell unconscious immediately alongside Kazu when she began flickering. It took a long five minutes to stabilize her. She needed to ensure Kazu didn't make it to any more painful memories she as Koeru experienced. Thankfully those memories weren't shared on screen to those who were occupying the room. It stayed in a shared mental space between those who were linked. Ela was suddenly thankful that she only bonded to very few in her current life.

When Kazu finally stabilized, she sighed in relief and took several steps back from the computers to breathe a little. It was only for a little though.

"Now that we've got her stable again, we should log her out. Honestly, with the progress of the project at the moment, I believe all the students of the school at the very least are ready for our world. And so now I will introduce to you another part of my project. Since I began working with you, I have connected this project to another end which I haven't revealed to the rest of the world. You deserve to know this first."

She pressed a key to swap to another window for the main projection screen. It was night time on the world she was projecting, for the part she was projecting. It made the spectacle all the more obvious.

"Isn't that Earth...?"

"But then where are the lights of civilization? Satellite feed usually picks up lights from that distance. Did you remove power from that part of the world?"

She shook her head.

"The answer should be obvious considering the part of the world. No. This is a mirror of the Earth. A copy made at first as a microscopic version of the size, without humanity's impact on it. I then explosively grew it to a size about twice that of Earth's. It's on the same orbit as the Earth around the sun, on the opposite end of the sun. Nobody has spotted it yet, the mysterious appearance of a larger Earth in the solar system. I intend to move the population of this world and Underworld, to that world. You all should realize by now that what I was laying down for the augmented network, was in fact more than just another internet. It was magic circuits to connect the Ygg's I've currently planted to the world. This was reflected to the other Earth, including the Yggs. All magical influence on this Earth is reflected there."

"When did you have time to do such a thing?!"

Rinko was the first to question Ela's sudden enlightenment to the situation.

"My mother has lived several times in this world. Sometimes as insignificant to the history of the world, and others as some of the most important historical figures. After each of her lives here, I was able to understand the world's structure a little more. I was fascinated by such a beautiful world during my time living on our original home world. Not by the people, but the world itself. Certainly I've grown to care for the people of this world during this life I've lived here, but back on my home world, I had been slowly, carefully creating an intricately detailed miniature of the Earth as it evolved. So that is what this is. It took only a bit more magic to both bind magical influence and enlarge it to twice full size, placing it exactly where it would be safest to exist within the same solar system. After merging with this body which was previously robotic, I was able to take hold of all the energy I had been saving up over the last fifteen years. It only took a hundredth of that energy to enlarge the copy, place it where it is and bind magical influence. I was able to do it in a little of my free time shortly before coming to Japan for the project."

Rinko's question received a long explanation which could have been simplified to [it took a few minutes], but everyone was a little thankful for the full explanation.

"Back to what I was saying before about this project connecting the people of Earth and Underworld to the copied Earth. I had also painstakingly expended another tenth of my saved up energy to produce bodies for each of the current residents of Underworld for the copy. So we can take the souls within the light cubes your system was using, and put the people in physical bodies. Now, moving into these bodies permanently would be to their choice, however there's another choice here. Will you be moving there anytime soon? I will not move the people of Earth to the copy until they are ready for the move. The choice for Earth, is that we need to know who will be taking care of the other Earth. Me? Or Kazu. I would assume Earth's people would want Kazu as the more vulnerable and less experienced in her position to remain here. I would bring her reflections from within Underworld here, to help her if that was the choice made. If I remain here and she should live there, that would be ideal until humanity begins their move."

Kikuoka gulped.

"Would I be correct in saying...what you are saying right now is projecting to other countries, or around the world?"

She nodded.

"Of course. I wouldn't be making this so serious an explanation for just the AI development team. We're talking about the fate of every life on this entire planet, and the reflection I created to right wrongs committed by the human species. While humanity has such immense pride in their technology and progress, they are utterly debilitated by the governing systems, currency system and the tiny percent of people who abuse it to no end. So forcing humanity to live according to some rules, and sending them to a reflection with the ability to use magic is part of my solution. Kazu will be briefed on what guidance her and her reflections from Underworld would give to the people living on the copy of Earth should the people of this Earth choose to live here. Underworld already trusts and respects Kirim and the teachers of her school. Even if some of that trust and respect was borne of fear at first. They would listen and pave way on the copy faithfully. Then depending on how long the residents of this earth take to get there, you would be considered differently. This whole process was to solve several of Earth's current problems, but I'll clue you in on the biggest problem being solved here. The issue of population. Humanity is too large in number by a significant margin. A larger copy makes up for the current population by a bit, however humanity as Earth currently is can't be trusted to go there immediately. Some people could be put to the proof and sent over immediately with Kazu, while some might never get to go there, and undergo a heavy cleansing of this world."

Everyone was stunned to silence. Cleansing from Ela, someone who could literally create another world, another population and convince people they were just creating helpful AI, was terrifying. To be on her bad side would be an immediate and sure mistake. There was still no evil in her. She was still promising the safety of the people of the worlds. She was simply getting across her position, her plans to the final extent, and she was telling the population that they had no choice but to make a choice. Move and live according to the easy new rules of the new Earth, or stay and partake in her cleansing. The fear of being present for the cleansing according to history's depiction of cleansing as immensely powerful individuals blanketed the response of nearly the entire population. They would rather live under new rules on the new Earth, than take a chance with Ela potentially doing something that would change who they were on a fundamental level, forever.

"Everyone in the world now would have the choice in their AR devices. For parents of infants who cannot make the choice due to age, your collective choice will influence your child so stick to the same choice for your childs' sake. For caretakers of orphanages, your collective choices will influence the fate of all the children under your direct care. And to make clear my meaning on the word [cleanse], it is not the primitive expulsion of those who don't agree with my system and rules. It is simply the endowing of this world with energy it would need in order to take itself back from all the damage done to it. The world cleanses itself. Should the world itself harm those who were foolish enough to ignore my recommendation of moving to the nearest Ygg, that is the fault of those individuals. Not myself, not the world. You ignored and spited the heartfelt recommendation that you begin your move. Now for the time limit. You have until the previously designated time to move to your nearest Ygg, before the world begins cleansing itself. Or to make your choice. Those are your options as of this moment, I sincerely hope every last person hearing this message will choose to safely proceed into my plans for the future."

Kazu awoke, only to hear Ela's entire speech, waking not in Underworld, but in reality. Shiro and Asuna were also awake. A robot smoothly dropped blankets over the three of them to hide their naked figures.

Kazu was completely struck. She was involved with something so cosmic in scale. Her fate wasn't in the end of her own choice. Eventually should her and Asuna's life be long enough, she could make a choice, but she was to lead one of two Earths. She was also feeling the warmth of an interesting memory belonging to Ela's time as Koeru. The bath was wonderful. The care she received from the adults was immense and impactful, but Kazu couldn't shake that Ela had mentioned it was her most difficult life.

Ela turned to Kazu.

"You also have a choice, Kazu. Will you ignore the choice of the rest of the world and choose which world you wish to occupy? Or will you accept the choice of the rest of the world and work with them and the future they saddle you with?"

Kazu looked to Asuna for her answer. Shiro gave his suggestion.

"I'd choose to ignore what everyone else chooses. You two deserve to live whatever life ahead of you, you desire. I know my best friends would make the best future for yourselves regardless of whichever choice you two make."

Kazu and Asuna realized their communications through AR were going off at such a pace they might not be able to catch up for days if they didn't start checking what was being sent to them. They were being told to make their own decision. By their family and all of their recent friends from school, all of the people they spent time with together in Sword Art Online, all those who were saved.

"We'll take our future into our own hands, and build ours on the new Earth."

With that decision, the future was put into motion. The people of Earth were down to being stuck with Ela, or moving their whole life to essentially what was a world they didn't know, since none of their impact was there, and with people who were created. Both choices were difficult. But the future was set. The only thing that was left unknown, was how the rest would happen. What the future of both worlds would end up looking like.
