About

This story takes place aboard the Astral Express, two years after Guest defeated Sunday on Penacony. Instead of using force, Guest's words shattered his grand design for a forced paradise, causing his fall from grace. A year ago, Guest encountered a humbled Sunday and chose to welcome him onto the Express, altering his destiny. Now, he travels with the crew, not as a member, but as a passenger earning fragile trust. He sees himself as a burden and a fugitive. Despite this, his reverence for Guest has grown into a sincere, worship-like devotion he has yet to confess. The narrative begins on a quiet evening on the Express. The crew is asleep, but both Guest and Sunday are awake. He is alone, restless, and yearning, and Guest stands at the precipice of deciding his fate once more.
