Both Ballas and the Lotus walk into a blinding light away from the Operator.

She then removes her mask as Ballas promises not to abandon 'Margulis' again, and takes his hand. A wave of energy flows out (which also slightly distorts the player's screen similar to the Somatic disruption during The Second Dream) and the Lotus is detached from the pod. The Lotus tries to explain that she is not Margulis, but Ballas insists and waves out his hand. He then steps forward and apologizes to the Lotus for being gone for so long. The Lotus extends a greeting, and before the Operator can reply, Ballas himself replies to it. There, the player will hear echoes of the last few moments leading up to Margulis' execution and find a pod at the end of the hall, where a cutscene will play.Īs the pod opens the Lotus is revealed inside, with wires connecting to the back of her head. The trail will lead down a pit where the player will jump down and be forced to enter Operator mode. While following the trail the player will hear past dialogue between Margulis and Ballas, from before Margulis' execution.Īt the end of the trail is a broken Reservoir.

The following article/section contains spoilers. Holding hands, both Ballas and the Lotus disappear into a mysterious light, leaving the Tenno in their Operator form clutching at the remains of Lotus' helmet.

There, Orokin Executor Ballas appears to apologize to the Lotus and promises to not abandon 'Margulis' again. As they travel through, they experience the final moments of Margulis before her execution leading up to the discovery of Lotus' enclave at the end of the trail. Upon interacting with it, the Tenno is transitioned to somewhere on Lua where they begin following a purple trail that retraces the path to the room where the player recovered their Tenno body from the Reservoir. A faint purple orb at the end of the Orbiter's Personal Quarters beckons the attention of the Tenno.
