Jon is sitting alone at a nursing bed with a multi-facility pure grey washing machine-shaped robot by his bedside. The anti-kunchies net wrapped around the room and at the walls. He is wearing the anti-kunchies nets on both his elbows and a frail face net like Connell, just that they are all green in color. 

His body is nearly broken, his eyes have turned completely blue, his ankle has a blue burn which looks like a group of chips the size of ants making a band over his wrist. He touches the skin near it and the blue band elevates above the skin with a twitching sound, he is happily looking at it. Thousands of wires which make the shape of a bone are stuffed under the skin and are now visible on peeping because even now, the shed of the band is staying up. 

The band is connected to two wires which are holding it, these wires look like black veins. He looks at the robot, a smiley appears on its black screen, he starts to rotate the band, but the wires stay stationary as if the band is like a big slip ring that has more work than just shifting current. After a rotation, a voice comes out, "Hey Jon, hope you're doing great buddy! There's just something I wanted to tell you. I'm really sorry for not being there with you when you needed me the most, but well, I guess that was again one of the very few mistakes I committed. Now listen to me buddy, if I do not come back only then listen".

 It is his grandpa Grisham's voice, he suddenly starts laughing and then clears his throat and a twitch voice intrudes in, he continues, "you'd get to know about it soon maybe, the Kargzaans. I have a clip with this message, check it and you'd know about them, you know about them through", Grisham starts laughing again. 

"I just want to tell you this, the cause of my death should be known to you well enough. I was sent to fight Burma Kargzaan in an alternate world. There, he was the only one who lived, so if you remember about the Palmers killing the woman, it was my dazed mistake to tell you that. I hope that didn't lead to any misconceptions in your head ever. Though a certain angel would have recruited you and healed the mind. But yes, Zenith and Tridaily were both dead people, and I had to convince or fight Burma, I know I never showed it to you but your grandpa always had it in him" he starts laughing again, though his laugh is slow, Jon hears it alright.

A tray comes out of the robot and slides from below Jon's body, his body shifts to a straighter position and the entire room dims down, a number of red flashing lights from the ceiling's vertices stress the room lighting. All the kunchies wrap over and fall inside the hidden ceiling storage. Something similar happens to everything; all the types of equipment of the room except for the robot.

 Its battery has fueled to hundred percent and Jon's body has gone stale, his body shade starts turning pastel metallic like a matte doll. A lot of stick-like machines emerge from the ceiling, three of them rub over Jon's body. He now looks like a blue robot. Its clothes are removed and the wires, hips, and all the inner body equipment are brought out and goes away the ceiling hands back into the hiding. All that remains is the metallic body, a big stomping hand comes from the ceiling and stamps the body to a flat sheet. The entire room dims down to a blackout.

Jon is still all good in his well-owned attire, his white robe rather than lavender. He is roaming around, corridor to corridor of a proficient building when his eyes lock at an inventory-like room where a few holograms are dancing. He walks in, running right at the table beneath the closed window is a desk emitting the hologram of Kamaya fighting his Shridgaar.

A figure emerges from the water, the entire sewer lane is lightened by holograms of Zenith, Tridaily, and Burma's different faces, but Kamaya's eyes are fixated on this one hologram. There is a girl who has the same features as Kamaya's Shridgaar, a beautiful face that it is, semi dusky and semi fair, the eyes are almond-shaped and look elegant. This female is Kamaya's sister who is fighting Marem, someone who is a hiddenstone of Burma.
