Yahto was wandering the forest after Meir left. He was taking the time to rethink what had just occurred between his son and himself, and he felt bad about it.

'He was right... I had no right to with hold the truth from him for so long,' Yahto thought, as he felt that something was approaching him.

Yahto turned towards whoever was coming, while in his human-form, ready to change if he had to. However, Yahto didn't change when he saw Meir emerge from behind some bushes.

"Meir," Yahto called, as he quickly walked towards his son and hugged him.

"I'm sorry Meir. I should have told you the truth sooner. That was my error, and I take responsibility for it. I'm sorry my son. I hope that I can make it up to you," Yahto said, as he pulled back from the hug to look at Meir.

Meir looked up at father, and he smiled and said, "Thanks dad. I understand why your afraid, but I'm sorry for being a jerk before."

Yahto chuckled and said, "Me and you both."

Yahto and Meir gave each other a hug. Yet, before breaking the hug, Meir said,

"Thank you for telling me who I am... and for telling me how people are."

Yahto frowned and said, "I'm sorry that you had to find out that way."

"No, its okay father. I found out much more than I thought, like..." Meir trailed off, as Yahto felt something cold and sharp pierce his abdomen while he gasped.

"How YOUR the reason why mom isn't around anymore," Meir said, as he stepped back from Yahto, while holding a blade in his father's chest.

"S-Son... w-why?" Yahto asked, as he wheezed.

"Your fear is what made you come down here to hide your serpent-form. When you touched the black substance on the Grundal's bones, you ended up getting some of it on your clothes for standing too close to it, not realizing that it was poisonous to all besides me and you," Meir said, while Yahto was surprised at how Meir knew that.

"I actually made sure that my hands and clothes were clean, but you didn't. So when you came home, you not only brought some of it with you... you also brought it to mom, who wasn't immune to it like me and you," Meir said, anger rising, as Yahto's eyes widened in realization to what he had done.

"M-My love... My d-dear sweet..." Yahto said, as tears were streaming down his cheeks at this realization.

"Don't cry father... you'll see mother again soon," Meir said with a stoic expression.

Then he pulled back the blade from his father, as Yahto slowly fell to his knees.

"M-Meir... Don't..." Yahto wheezed, and then he laid his body on the ground, as he became still.

Meir turned around and walked away from his father, as he passed by the bushes. After walking a few more steps, Meir came to a sudden stop as he shakily looked at the blade that he held. His eyes widened as he dropped the blade to the ground and stepped away from it, fearfully, as he bumped into a tree behind him. He held onto the tree, as his legs grew weak and slightly wobbly. Then he turned and laid his forehead on the tree, as he sobbed from what he had done.

Lloyd was nearly petrified when he saw Meir slay his own father, as he reminiscent a time when that seemed like the only way to stop his own father. Raven held onto Lloyd tightly, as she buried her face into his shoulder, and trembled as she cried.

When he could move again, Lloyd held onto Raven as he floated ahead to see Meir. He gasped when he saw Meir crying from what he had done.

When Raven gathered her composure, she turned forward as she held onto Lloyd's hand tighter with her own.

Then, when Meir calmed down, he started walking away, passing by the blade on the ground. He felt a heavy weight on his heart, as he clutched his hand near his chest.

"Why... Why would I feel guilt... when it was his fault... why should I feel guilt for what he created?" Meir asked himself, referring to himself as what was 'created.'

Then one of Meir's eyes flickered on and off red, as he continued walking towards a certain direction.
