Ending 5: You Compromise with Time

Choosing to confront Time in the realm of Unconsciousness, you and Zee explain the feelings of the people. You explain that while everyone respects Time, they also fear him and seek to escape his rule in some way. Surprisingly, Time feels guilt over this and promises to lessen his control, even as he stays in power. You stay to observe this change for some time, and while it is a difficult shift initially, you can clearly see Time making an effort. Once enough time has passed for you to be certain of his sincerity, you ask Time to send you home. He kindly sends you back home, where you regain your memories and your previous life. Time told you you were here for a reason, and he is grateful.
