The full plot for 'Thorns Under The Moon' is now transcribed on the wiki. The branch opens with Zayne's recurring nightmare: MC impaled on black crystal spikes. The arc is set in Chansia City at Chansia Hospital, where Zayne and Greyson investigate a cluster of Protocore Syndrome patients who have fallen into comas after exposure to a teleporting Wanderer. The medical research vocabulary in the arc centres on 'β-Protocurve.' The climax: Zayne uses his Ice Evol to draw out a glowing sphere of ever-changing snowflakes from MC's body — the ice crystals that had been trapped inside her since the Wanderer attack in 2034 — and absorbs them into his own chest. Black ice colder than anything he was previously carrying forms on the back of his hand. His closing line: 'But at least, I have one last choice.'
