"TEAAAARRRR!!! WAKE UP!!!"
Veredorr's very soul materializing within the spear, as it redirected its sharp end towards the crown, piercing through its blue jewel, and cracking it!
Crack… crack…!
CRASH!
FLAAASH!
Suddenly, Veredorr's consciousness found himself within the depths of the Mindscape of the Crown itself. It was a desolate land of pure snow, and white skies.
In the middle of this land, Tear was there, looking alone…
"T-Tear!"
Veredorr ran towards her, only to find the entire landscape to change and shape, forming into a gigantic titan made of snow!
"I WON'T LET YOU TOUCH HER… SHE'S… MINE! MINE! MINE! MINEEEE!!!"
The gigantic snow titan attacked Veredorr's very soul, attempting to tear it to shreds, and so, stop him from completely freeing Tear's subconscious from the crown's control!
As the fists reached Veredorr, his eyes began glowing bright red in anger…
"You know? My entire life… I lived secluded, fearful of everything…" Veredorr sighed. "Until I meet them, the Ice Giants, and Tear… Do you truly believe I'll give up?! Do you truly believe your mind attacks can pierce through this conviction?! Through my love for Tear?!"
FLUOOOOSH!
Veredorr was now a ghost, his soul was much stronger than the Crown of Skadi believed! He might had died, but it was thanks to Maria's help and support that he was able to get this far.
With the blazing power of his very soul as it burned down more and more, Veredorr fought back. His very being shaping into countless fists, clashing against the Will of the Crown of Skadi!
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLAAASH!
"Ungh?! H-How?! How are you this… strong?!" The Crown was shocked.
Each of Veredorr's blows pierced through her will, slowly shattering it apart!
CRASH!
"N-NO…!"
CRAASH!
"S-STOP!"
CRAAASH!
"PLEASE DON'T…!"
CRAAAASH!
"If you… do this…! I will be alone!!!"
Crack… crack… CRACK!
Her entire will continued shattering and shattering more… Veredorr pitied the Crown's Will, but her loneliness didn't justified the atrocities she forced Tear to commit.
He had no mercy!
"I'm sorry, but I won't let you control her anymore, no matter how sad your damn backstory is!!!" Veredorr's entire soul became a gigantic bat made of pure ice, flying across the titan made of snow, and completely destroying it!
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO…!"
CRAAAAAAAASSSSHHH!!!
As the entire Crown of Skadi's will shattered into pieces, Veredorr's soul flew down, grabbing Tear, as her lonely, dead-like yes slowly opened, as if she had been sleeping for a long time.
"V-Veredorr?!" Tear opened her eyes in surprise.
"Tear… I've finally found you." Veredorr smiled, transforming back into his human-like ghostly form, and flying into the skies of the mindscape.
"After I… did that to you… You came back for me?" Tear cried.
"I knew it wasn't you who killed me… It was the crown's will." Veredorr smiled sweetly.
"But I did so many horrible things… I even…!" Tear's eyes continued crying.
"Please, don't bother yourself with that…" Veredorr smiled. "I want you to be happy. I want you to smile like you once did… I've been fighting, fighting for you. Please…"
"Veredorr…" Tear cried. "Why? Why go… so far…"
"Because I… Tear… I've always loved you…" Veredorr sighed.
"E-Eh? V-Veredorr…!" Tear blushed, as tears constantly cascaded from her eyes. "I…!"

FLAAASH!
Both of their consciousness finally went back to their bodies, as Veredorr's spear-like form pierced right through the Crown of Skadi, completely shattering her into countless tiny pieces, and freeing Tear from her control…
Once and for all!
Crack… CRASH!
"U-Uggh… N-No… T-Tear…"
The Crown of Skadi groaned. Her bits and pieces still barely holding into something of a will, that slowly faded away.
"Please… don't… leave me…"
Before anybody could notice the crown, her consciousness fully faded away, leaving nothing behind…
"Veredorr!" Maria said, undoing her transformation and rushing to see him, happily finding out he was carrying little Tear on his phantasmal arms.
"She's safe… I've returned her consciousness to her body." Veredorr smiled, his body seemed very weakened…
In fact, it was slowly fading away, as if he had burned the very last spark of his soul's strength, and the only thing left now was his fading consciousness.
"V-Veredorr! Your body…!" Partner cried.
"N-No… Don't tell me!" Lucifer cried.
"What's happening?" Emeraldine asked.
"His body…" Jonathan sighed.
RUMBLE!
The tower kept falling apart, crumbling down piece by piece, as Veredorr smiled back at the sleeping Tear, and then at Maria and company.
"Please, make sure that she gets out of here safely. The villagers down in the other floors must have already been freed from the Frost Curse by now. Please find them as well." Veredorr said with a faint smile, giving Tear to Maria.
"Huh? Where are we- Ah, we were frozen!"
"Hey, we're back though!"
Gjoll and Leiptr were unfrozen after the crown was broken, showing that Veredorr was right, the other villagers down in the lower floors of the tower were most likely freed from the curse too.
However, Maria didn't just wanted to let go of Veredorr, she had already lost Lancelot… She didn't wanted to lose more loved ones.
"E-Eh? Wait a second, I can heal your soul! Stay still!" Maria cried. "This can't end like this- Eh? It doesn't work?!"
As much as Maria tried, she couldn't heal his soul. Even if she put her very Divine Power into it, and even her very soul… It wasn't working.
It was as if his soul wasn't even there anymore.
"Please… tell Tear that… I've always loved her." Veredorr's eyes began flowing with tears, as his consciousness, somehow, spread across the entire tower, holding it together.
It was his very last strength, all into it.
"Hurry! Run away while you can!" He cried.
"N-No… Veredorr…" Maria cried. "Wait, stop! We can't leave without you!!!"
"Maria!" Lucifer sighed.
"Master, we have to GO!" Partner cried.
"Don't… insult Veredorr's sacrifice." Emeraldine sighed, her eyes constantly crying.
Maria was dragged down by her family, as she saw Veredorr's last smile, before everything in front of her crumbled apart…
"Please… take care of her…"
"VEREDORR!!!"
As Maria disappeared from the scene with everybody else, Veredorr glanced at the torn apart crown of Skadi, sighing.
"I guess we will share… a similar fate." He sighed. "Don't worry, you won't be lonely anymore."
Veredorr caressed the crown, before everything crumbled down…
BOOOOOMMM…!
