I don't really understand it all the way myself, honestly.

[They shrug, smiling weakly, but they oblige to the best of their ability. Close their eyes and call up the memories.]

With Asriel...well, first he took the human SOULs. Then he took all the monster SOULs in the Underground, and with that power...the power of seven human SOULs, or however many monsters made it equal to that...he was able to take his form. Asriel Dreemurr.

[They smile, brief and uneven.]

The Absolute God of Hyperdeath, he called himself. Chara got...pretty excited, actually. Infinite attack, infinite defense.

We couldn't FIGHT. We couldn't do much of anything. The whole world was just ending, and all we could do was Hope and Dream. But every time we died, we...we just came back. And I don't mean like normal - our SAVE didn't exist anymore. I mean we literally, we - we refused.

[They lock their fingers together, mimicking the re-fusing of a SOUL's pieces after it split into two, wavered, and then - in a defiance of the bright snap of scattering pieces, simply mended itself together.]

It's like our determination wouldn't let us die. At all.
