While attempting to regain his balance, he eventually collapses onto the ground. The player is then prompted to execute Vol, triggering an in-game cutscene in which Palmer steps onto his back and aims her [[M6H magnum]] directly at the cult leader's head. Palmer fires the magnum and finally kills Merg Vol as he lets out one last roar. With Vol dead, Palmer steps off of the Elite and looks towards the nearby [[door]]. | ||
