Emil expresses his relief as he lands somewhere in the desert and begins rolling along to locate the others. However, Emil did not die, but is now a disembodied head. He later tearfully sacrifices himself to save the others from Popola at the Shadowlord's castle. He accompanies Nier on his quest to defeat the Shadowlord, and is responsible for the destruction of The Aerie after losing control of his powers as the'ultimate weapon. At first he is ashamed of his new look, but learns to accept it once everyone assures him that they do not feel any differently towards him. There is a price, however: having gained this power through merging with his sister, Emil is granted a new form reminiscent of his sister's 'weaponized' body he becomes a skeletal creature that floats above the ground, wearing a ragged cloak and wielding an enchanted staff. Their mission below the mansion is successful and Emil gains not only the ability to see without harm to others, but also the power to manipulate all forms of magic and and thus the power to reverse the effects of KainГ©'s petrification. His sister Halua, labeled Number 6, became the ultimate weapon, while he was known as Number 7 and kept in reserve, in case he was ever needed to keep her at bay. While in the laboratory, Emil remembers that he was experimented upon by the National Weapons Laboratory in the search to create an 'ultimate weapon'. He brings a sense of youthful exuberance and takes to Nier and KainГ© as if they were the older brother and sister he's wanted his entire life.Д®ventually, he is forced to petrify KainГ© in an attempt to keep a monstrous Shade locked away, and five years later he requests for Nier to help him find a cure for reversing the effects in a laboratory in his mansion. Rather than abuse this power, Emil is burdened by a terrible guilt and wears a blindfold to avoid petrifying anyone. Despite his gentle demeanor, Emil possesses unimaginable power-everyone he looks at is turned to stone.
