'You dare try to dominate me? You will burn in my fury!' Wrath bellowed.
'Order cannot bind me! Yet, you think you can?' Chaos sneered mockingly.
'You will be consumed by your own hunger!' Gluttony craved coldly.
'Why bother? It's all pointless...' Sloth yawned.
Each persona fought tooth and nail to keep itself alive and relevant under the tyranny of Pride.
"You exist to serve my will, you must submit under my authority." Pride commanded coldly, his voice echoing within his mind.
With a forceful exertion of his indomitable will, Pride began to crush the rebellious energies. One by one, the embodiments' resistance faltered.
Wrath's fury dimmed, Chaos's freedom was shackled, Envy's desire was quelled, Greed's avarice was consumed, Gluttony's hunger was sated, Sloth's lethargy was overcome, Fire's flames were extinguished, and Light's brilliance was matched.
