WHG was created by Morgana's mind as she was in the tower. Her own identity as a saint, and her un-saint-like bitterness and hatred created a rift that tore her apart. WHG represents all that saintly goodness, separated out from Morgana. The house manifested to control the anomaly, serving as a tether for WHG's soul. Both of their wishes came true through the mansion. Because WHG's actions stood in such stark contrast to Morgana's wish, she was always doomed.

She asks you to kill her, and you respond 'I can't'.

WHG tells you about how much she admired you when she saw your selfless and honorable death. That she took on that same physical appearance of white hair and red eyes. You took on a totally different approach, even though you and Morgana had both suffered. She asks you once more, and you respond 'I can't do it'.

WHG insists that in order for Morgana's soul to be whole, you have to kill her. Michel doesn't believe this is the end, he believes there has to be a way for WHG, the girl who wanted to live, to LIVE. She asks you once more, and you respond '...'

WHG promises that this will result in the salvation of everyone. You 'take the sword'. WHG asks you to remember her, in some corner of your soul.

Michel is back in the tower, still feeling the sensation of stabbing WHG. He mourns the necessity of it. He speaks to Morgana, and she has so much trouble coming to terms with the fact that she remembered the wrong lord, and that this one was the 'dead slave' she loved.

Morgana refuses to let go, and Michel says it's time to do so. He points out that the WHG was closer to Morgana than anyone. The irony, as Michel points out, is that Morgana has cursed herself along with everyone else. Morgana gets extremely defensive, accuses Michel of laughing at her misfortune. Michel pulls her into a hug. He wants to be there for her because no one else was, in her final moments. Morgana makes fun of Michel, saying he's too forgiving, not understanding his actions at all.

Michel pulls her hood back and we see Morgana, the girl she was always meant to be. Morgana explains how the WHG annoyed her, and how convinced she was that WHG was somehow Michel, despite them being nothing alike. Michel asks Morgana to release everyone's souls, and she'll release herself as well. Morgana insists that she won't forgive them, but she will release them. She's concerned about having to release them on her own, and Michel assures her that he will be with her.
Michel leads the way. Morgana meets Mell first and tells him that she doesn't forgive him, she's just done cursing him. Mell owns up to his role in the situation, not only in the first place, but after he was cursed. He was weak, and ran from the problem instead of facing it. Morgana releases Mell, and he dissolves.

Michel and Morgana descend the staircase, Morgana urging Michel to go first as she's concerned about the Swordsman. If he were to attack and destroy your soul, she says, you'd be gone forever. Gee, thanks.

The Swordsman greets them, is a bit stunned by Morgana's improved appearance. Morgana takes a couple verbal jabs at Michel, but the Swordsman steadfastly defends Michel's status as a man. Morgana offers the Swordsman a curious deal - to have his soul erased. With or without the curse, the Swordsman will likely cause pain. He expresses a desire to live, though. The Swordsman wants to remember this: "You must resist temptation if you are to blend in". He doesn't want to be a killer in his next life. Morgana addresses him as Yukimasa, which I could have been calling him the whole time, and he dissolves. All righty.

Morgana quizzes Michel, asking if he could forgive those who hurt him. Michel says yes, if they repent. Morgana pushes - what if they didn't? What if they showed up, intent to hurt you more? Michel stays silent, and Morgana suggests they go and free the final soul.

Morgana asks on the way there if Michel can feel Giselle's presence, because she can't. Aw no. Not a good feeling.

The two meet up with Jacopo. He's a little disappointed that Michel was able to heal Morgana's face instead of him, but ah well. Morgana announces her intent to release his soul - no forgiveness, nothing. She's about to, and Jacopo stalls. He wants to finally express how he felt. Jacopo talks about how the WHG always felt a bit off, even calling her the name Michelle never felt quite right. But he loved her because he felt Morgana in her. Jacopo asks for a smile, and Morgana ...can't. She says it wouldn't be fair. He bids her farewell as he dissolves.

Morgana explains that hearing how Jacopo felt is nowhere near enough to erase all the hurt she feels. Morgana says the front door is probably open, now that she's not willing it closed.

If you pick 'Let's go', Morgana reminds you there's no guarantee of hope behind that door. When the mansion disappears, so will you. Outside the mansion is not light - it's pervasive darkness, the scent of blood thick in the air. A knight, middle-aged Didier approaches. Morgana is terrified as his pronouncements about judgement over the witch, and the demon. He will see them executed. Michel urges Morgana to take care of Giselle if she encounters her out there, and pushes Morgana out the door. The knight stabs Michel. Michel summons the blade he used to kill WHG, and stabs Didier as well. They both fall down together in a pool of blood. Ending 7 - Farewell.

If you pick 'There's one more stop to make', Michel talks about one more soul that needs releasing, and Morgana asks him to lead the way. You head back to the landscape painting. Michel remembers to come back after figuring out his name - Georges. Morgana didn't know they were brothers. Morgana had tossed the bedroom key into the painting's void. Georges offers an apology to Michel, for the painting that their mother requested. Georges said it was thoughtless on his part, but it's easy to be completely blind to your own actions when you don't receive any of the consequences. Ain't that the truth. Georges is all right. I like him. Michel forgives him, and takes the painting off the wall to bring with when they leave.
