In some unidentified location, Ded talks with the Protagonist. He refers to Ryota and himself, who share the [[Role]] of the Paladin, as those who were born under a star to make other people happy and gain happiness in doing so. While Ryota is suitable to be a Santa, he would not want to be one due to his attachment in his current school with someone, implied to be the Protagonist. The Protagonist asks if they're cut out to be a Santa, to which Ded flatly denies, due to them being born under a star that moves them to separate, referring to their [[Rule]] of Rendering. They set out to dismantle toxic bonds to bring people joy, giving Yule and his separation from his mental baggage as an example. He also refers to their existence as one of constantly looking for a home, alluding to their [[Role]] of the Wanderer. Ded is reminded of his old friend by them, and, like to his old friend, he can only want to reach out to them but cannot actually do so. He then admits he came to talk to impart those feelings as a goodbye gift, and asserts they both do not share a bond that would destine their reunion, which he can see as Fey Folk. He does concede, however, that in Tokyo, bonds may be created where they did not exist in the first place, so they may meet again. He then makes a final wish the Protagonist remembers them, even if only one day a year, a Santa who only seeks their happiness.
