When you have difficulties or doubts, throw away all negative and possibly wrong thoughts and quietly listen to God’s voice.
Either to the left or to the right, you will hear a voice behind you saying, This is the way, walk in it (Isaiah 30:21).
03/24 Bible verses
He who sows iniquity will reap vanity, And the rod of his fury will perish. (Proverbs 22:8)
He who sows iniquity will reap disaster; the rod of his anger will be destroyed (Proverbs 22:8).
03/24Good words
1. Do not make arbitrarily high remarks on areas that you are not professional in or don’t really understand. It is better to remain silent and act like a fool than to speak and prove yourself to be a fool.
2. If you control your emotions, you will control your life. Use softness to overcome toughness and benefit others and yourself. When others throw stones at you, don't throw them back. Keep them as the cornerstones for building tall buildings.

03/24圣经金句
He who sows iniquity will reap vanity, And the rod of his fury will perish. (Proverbs 22:8)
Continuing from this post about the right hand and the left hand. There’s something in the final battle of Zestiria that doesn’t get talked about a lot too.
Namely that, he uses Lion’s Howl (獅子戦吼) with his left hand (the spiritual hand, the one with the Shepherd’s glove).
The same as in the OP, where he uses his left hand for the arte, focusing on the dragon crest on the Shepherd’s glove and with the four seraphim overlaid over him. It is essentially still him acting as the Shepherd, the vessel for his seraphim companions, against the Lord of Calamity.
It’s the second strike of the arte that caught Heldalf, as the Lord of Calamity, off guard, from Sorey, as the Shepherd. Here, he uses his right hand (even the novel calls attention to this too as he explicitly uses the opposite hand) to bring out that second strike.
This is my everything!!
It’s the hand that symbolizes him as a mere human. In the novel, it’s said that after Lailah was gone (because she was shot as a bullet to sever the bond between Heldalf and Maotelus), Sorey no longer had the power of purification (the flame of purification). He was no longer the Shepherd here when he faced Heldalf one-on-one.
It’s even more clear-cut in the manga.
HELDALF: What can you do alone?
SOREY: I am not alone!
HELDALF: How meaningless... you still don't realize it, do you?! The effect of the emptiness that fills the world, the more you resist the more you feel... that is loneliness!
SOREY: There have been people who grasped back when I reached out my hand; and when they took my hand, they all could look forward.
SOREY: That’s why I won’t stop reaching this hand out!
BOTH: Lion’s Howl!
HELDALF: Behold! The fate of the black and white of this world, the Lord of Calamity and the Shepherd, that can only reject each other!
HELDALF: This is the world’s answer as repeated, as woven by time!
HELDALF: Even powers adorned with sophistry called purification or salvation are nothing more than violence in the face of that answer!
SOREY: Even so, I won’t ever give up!
SOREY: No matter how painful or sad this answer is, we’ve managed to come this far.
SOREY: Not yet...
(The lion roars twice, the lion shall be crushed—)
(Even the Captain who passed this arte on couldn't accomplish this fantastic feat.)
(Maybe it’s just a pipe dream, but...)
SOREY: Take this, Heldalf!
SOREY: This is my everything!!
SOREY: Bestial Roar!!!!
I’ve talked about how despite Zestiria seemingly being about Sorey and his spiritual journey as the Shepherd, on the contrary, the narrative actually pushes other ways of salvation beyond the power of purification itself. The first strike of Lion’s Howl was totally expected by Heldalf, who kept thinking of all this as the fate of the Shepherd and the Lord of Calamity.
What he didn’t expect was Sorey attempting to reach out to him not as the Shepherd quelling the Lord of Calamity, but a human wanting to save another human.
(His first strike of Lion’s Howl tore his Shepherd’s cloak and glove up, and he was now even more explicitly not the Shepherd, but Sorey as Sorey himself.)
It was why he was able to unleash the second strike of Lion’s Howl, Bestial Roar (裂震虎砲) (by the way, Rays also referenced Sorey using Bestial Roar, despite the arte not being in his moveset in the original game).
(There was everyone behind his back too; to his left, the seraphim, and to his right, the human companions he met along the way.)
This passage from the novel is a bit long, but I feel it’s important to Sorey’s resolution as his own person too (as a fellow, mere human).
“I want to know why Heldalf became the Lord of Calamity.”
Sorey answered without any hesitation, and Mayvin asked again.
“And what will you do once you know? Do you want to find a weakness to take him down?”
“I... had never thought about that.”
“What?”
Mayvin’s brows wrinkled at the unexpected answer.
“Then, for what reason do you want to know about Heldalf’s past?”
“I want to face him as the Shepherd... no, as myself.”
It is the Shepherd’s duty to quell the Lord of Calamity. When Sorey first became the Shepherd, Lailah explained this to him. In order to do so, he needed to know the world, she also told him.
Then Sorey set out on his journey. He had repeated encounters and farewells, experienced repeated joy and sorrow. He learned that everything had two sides to it, and that these two sides were inseparable.
“This journey might have been necessary for me as the Shepherd. But I am me before I am the Shepherd. Traveling around the world, I understood once again that this world is threatened by the Lord of Calamity. And I want to stop that not because I am the Shepherd, but because I want to do it as myself.”
The Lord of Calamity was a great “negative flow,” so to speak, that seeked to fill the world with malevolence. To face and resist this, to be the “positive flow,” Sorey felt he had to know the other party deeply and be on the right side of the relationship between the two.
“If all I want to do is to fight against the Lord of Calamity as the Shepherd, I may not need to know anything about his past. But I want to know; I feel that I need to in order to face him. It’s my own selfish wish, not as the Shepherd, but I want to make this choice without hesitation, so... Mayvin, will you lend me your strength?”
Mayvin was silent. His smile faded from his face, and his sharp eyes came and went as if he were assessing Sorey.
Sorey, too, was silent, waiting for Mayvin’s answer.
“...I see. So you decided to fight him not because of the Shepherd’s calling, but on your own will... you certainly have the gall to do it.”
To note here is how “識る” keeps being used instead of “知る” for the word “to know” even though they’re both read the same (しる). The game and manga do this as well. Like the words “刻” and “時” having the same meaning and reading but different nuance to them, this is also the same case: “識る” is to know in its entirety. To comprehend. To understand deeply, in every sense of the word. It is holistic.
(It all started when he thought he should’ve tried to know, to understand Dezel more.)
And it’s not like he has always known about this. Sorey at the beginning didn’t know that he didn’t have to carry the burden all by himself. He needed to learn that he was blessed with friends who would share it with him.
(It’s worth noting that every time Kimura, Sorey’s JP VA, is asked to describe Sorey’s character in interviews, he almost always answers that Sorey is a purehearted person with a good will, but more than anything, blessed with many friends who care about him as a person.)
“Rose, I want you to tell everyone. About us, about the seraphim. It is up to everyone from now on to save the world! We must not repeat the tragedy born out of ignorance, the tragedy of our failure to see eye to eye with each other because of not sharing together!”
He said, as he went to face Heldalf for the final time.
Unfortunately, Heldalf wasn’t the same. He was, indeed, cursed with the Eternal Solitude, however it was also Heldalf himself who didn’t seek salvation at the earliest opportunity. Sorey’s figure wasn’t even reflected in his eyes, even though Sorey tried to save him. He was too far gone, and even Sorey’s hand couldn’t reach him.
But that’s okay. Sorey understood that Heldalf had his own answer, and he wouldn’t let that answer be tainted by white (as Heldalf said, he wouldn’t give in to the white light), just as his own answer wouldn’t be tainted by Heldalf’s black. He was being true to himself, and saved Heldalf in his own way.
This is Sorey’s decisive battle mirrage in Rays, by the way, called “全身全霊の一撃”, which translates to “Body and Soul’s Strike.” In that one strike, he puts in his everything (全身全霊 = complete devotion, one’s whole body and one’s whole soul, literally). It is the conclusion he came to from all the time he experienced that led him to this point.
