When Billy initially encounters Verlaine, Verlaine tells him about Billy's father being "rather active again", and compares how much better of an Etone Billy is, compared to his father. Billy reacts negatively, stating he and his father are related "in blood only".
When the Ethos headquarters is attacked, Fei and the party journey further into the headquarters and find evidence of its ties to Solaris, as well as the organization's plot to break away from Solaris for the purpose of world domination. As Billy struggles with this, Verlaine reveals himself, stating that Billy has been 'defiled' in falling away from Ethos, and that Verlaine himself will cleanse him with death. Jessie interferes with a stun bullet.
Isaac Stone kills Verlaine in front of Billy.
Jessie reveals that the attack is actually a 'purge', by order of Bishop Stone, in order to kill any Ethos members that are not affiliated with Solaris. Verlaine adds to this, revealing the extent of the crimes the members have done.
Before Verlaine is able to explain further, he is killed by Stone and two assassins.
Quotes
- "God? Where does such a being exist? You should know by now how the 'Ethos' came about... It was an organization created by Solaris aeons ago solely for the purpose of managing ignorant humans. Its doctrines are just deceptions to control the masses."
