Zetsuen no Tempest - ep08



Things have reached a critical point where all the truths are revealed, that in the nothing is as it appears to be. It seems that the tree that was actually causing the Kurogane sickness was not the tree of exodus, but it was cause by the tree of genesis as a form of punishment for those who dared to help the tree of exodus. This leads into the deep truth about magic and the reason why thing that civilization has made must be sacrificed to the tree of genesis. It seems that the tree of genesis was born after the world was born, that if it ever was awoken that it would erase everything from existence and start the world a new. That what Samon is trying to do is control the resurrection of the tree of exodus so that it injuries Genesis to send it back into a deep slumber but keep it weak enough that genesis will scatter the fruit once more. The truth that Samon seek is to protect the world be maintaining the status qua, to keep both side in a weakened stated.

It seems that Hakaze has a different view on things, that Genesis will only fix what needs to be corrected in this incomplete world. That the entire world will not be recreated when Genesis awakens. Yoshino suggest that they need to think about what they are doing because Samon might be right and they will be destroying to world instead of saving it. However he shocked to find out that Mahiro knew the truth all along, it just that they didn't tell him because it would cause him to have doubts. That is when he realizes the truth about Mahiro, that he can't forgive a world with Aika. That a world without her doesn't deserve to exist, that what every the outcome is he would still get what he desires. If genesis recreates the world than Aika would return, if the world is destroyed that it got what it deserved.

The Last detail that is revealed is that Samon can't bring Hakaze back because she is dead, but for awhile they can't accept this truth because they are speaking to her through magic. However when Samon ask her what year it is, it reveal that she is communicating with the future. That only reason she is able to talk to them is because she has yet to die on the island. This seems to suggest that the tree of genesis cause the death of Aika so that Mahiro would connect with Hakaze, and then because this cause the potential destruction of the tree of exodus. What this means is that it's impossible for Hakaze to achieve her objective since she is dead, even though she is alive for the moment. Question now is what will Mahiro do now that the only person that could of helped him find his sister's killer is dead. There is also the issue of what will Yoshino do now that he knows the truth.
