So when we last left our merry band of idiots the spy was invited to the meeting of overthrowing the emperor... maybe Nomura was trying to do a commentary on Caesar or something.. I don't know.

Invi responds the Master gave each of them a different role then specifically told them to keep their Unions separate to maintain balance of power...

Ok, what? Even in the fake world, even with these idiots that doesn't make sense. Somehow the balance of power wouldn't be maintained if you helped each other's task, mind you they are a GROUP in charge, so if they are a group and that group has a leader, but they aren't supposed to do anything with other Unions.....

WHAT THE FUCK IS THE POINT OF THE GROUP?!!! How did no one ask any of these questions ever...?

She then goes on to finish that any combing imbalance of power would lead to desire for more power which leads to darkness... ok. What? So, either we are to believe that all 5 armies are to be EXACTLY the same size and skill level at all times (an impossibility) or we are to believe that... YOUR MASTER IS BEHIND ALL THIS!!! I don't know which is more likely.
Let's find out.

She then accuses Aced of being trainted by darkness, so you can throw out everything I jokingly said earlier about her being the only remotely not dumb one... (in her defense, he did organize antreason meeting against the dude who's totally pounding her...)

Aced of course takes this accusation of the worst thing imaginable in KHs rationally...

Oh, nope, just fucking kidding!

Aced then responds back that she spys on them, (ok, so he knows?) and then reports everything back to Ira, and that has no doubt caused darkness in her heart.

She argues that is her role (so they do know each other roles then right, nope... not all of them. How the fuck anyone didn't see through the MoM is a topic that someone needs to do on Reddit or KHInsider before III comes out), which it is. Sorta.

Aced pointo out her role is to observe them, not disclose everything they say and do back to Ira. Ok, so, to his credit, he's making sense here... howver....

HE LITERALLY INVITED HER HERE, AND NOW WE FIND OUT THAT HE ALREADY KNEW SHE WAS SAYING EVERYTHING THEY ARE DOING BACK TO IRA? Then why invite her you dumbass bear mask wearing idiot!?????!!!!

Anyway, he says for all they know Ira and Invi could be allies scheming behind their backs (good thing you invited her then, am I right?!). This leads to a sigh and a close up from Ava, this moment is probably the start of the path to the Apocalypse this incredibly dumb girl is going to doom us to. (Besides her being born of course)

We see Ava alone at the fountain, asking when will it stop, and she doesn't want them to hurt each other. (Keep that in mind...). We then meet Ephemer. I have no reason to talk about him during Back Cover, just know when I talk about UX and X he's a huge deal. It's probably not important, but "Friend's in my Heart" plays here. Doubt it means anything, but it is an absoltely massive song in this series, best known (I would guess) for being the track that plays when Roxas and Namine join Kairi and Sora again at end of KHII. Anywho, Ava asks him if Ephemer remembers what he asked her previously, why the Unions compete against each other instead of working together (smart kid), and she admits she always wondered the same thing... ok, so, she knows this is stupid, counter productive and borderline suicidal, and yet still does it?... sure. Let's go with that. Ephemer points out it's just cause the Master said so.

And here we finally get down to the truth.

"Yes, and as such we must obey, the Master said it so it is." Forget father figure, they treat him like god. It does make the rest of these 3 games and the end of the world make slightly more sense. At least Ava (and probably the others) constantly fought back against their own questions.
