[ But it's fondly teased, and Tidus doesn't need to take off his VR headset to guess half of how Roland must be looking right now. Who would've imagined the guy getting this into videogames? Maybe this wasn't such a bad idea, and Tidus really did get him a new hobby. Who'd have thunk it.
The cartoon that loads has the white light coming down into the form of a human--the 'dragon' now transforming back into the cloaked and hooded figure, who collapses onto the ground. It zooms into half of their face, showing a...youthful jaw, grimacing as they then lift their head, an arm obscuring the players' view as they go to pull back on their hood.
...to reveal a youthful, sickly-looking boy, ragged, coughing into a fist, the gaps of his outfit showing how far the bandages cover his entire body.
'Ten years, my father trapped me here... I wanted him to be the one to suffer. T-to know what this is like... before I finally...'
He turns his head, his black hair hanging, and points to a vial on a table showing a red liquid that the camera goes onto.
'...save my sister. She is the only one...who ever loved me...'
It then moves on back to the castle, the princess, a young woman, waking up from her deep slumber, and then a crowd cheering of the civilians as the castle they started off in shows in full view, confetti and hangings decorated like a proper celebration.
'You Won!' comes over the screen in gold letters, and they're left to listen to very cheerful music.
