They reunited again a month later, and this is when Template learns of Error404's goals. And it is that he wants to revive Alphatale, the first AU, which Template has never heard of before. Error404 reveals that he is not hear to destroy the AUs, but his other self from a different Multiverse allowed it, but only as a part of his deal. He than tells Template that he can give him more power in protecting the AUs, in exchange for becoming his student. Template thought about it for a little bit, before agreeing, on the condition that they only target the AUs with bad ending, so that the good ending AUs are left alone, and will help with the reconstruction of his AU with his powers. Error404 agreed with the deal, as he than took Template in as his student, just as the Error404 of the other Multiverse had done with his Error. And so, Template trained with Error404, and while he was a lot hesitant in some parts that involved embracing the nature of his other powers, after some reasoning, he began to utilize even his powers more, such as the Template Blasters, Red Bones, and even the strings, as he than uses them to much more creative ways.
But unfortunately, just like Error, Template had to get involved in some very disturbing stuff, ad the Alphaverse began to appear inside of Template's Multiverse, such as battling against Infected, meeting the Astral Mother, and discovering that Pale had joined forces with Alpha, Error404's brother, and the times that he had were difficult, due to the fact that they are on a level that Template could not expect, and it is only lucky that Error404 had trained him to prepare him for this large thing. But even with all of the training, Template is getting overwhelmed by the immense powers that the Alphaverse has, due to the fact that he is not mentally prepared for something as immense as this. And everyday, Template is forced to mentally mature, to try and stop being dramatic and being the hero, even though Template does all that he can to hold onto those ideals, and while the relationship between Template and Error404 were rough, st the same time, they gained a relationship similar to that of father and son, except that relationship is much more closer than the relationship between the original Error404 and Error, due to Error being immensely stubborn, more so then Template. And since Template decided to try and repair and rebuild Alphatale, it took a lot of time and effort, but he began to rebuild the bindings and the mountain, although he cannot revive the people, and luckily, due to Error404's training, the holograms now become truly physical, as the holograms truly turn to stone, wood, leaves, and any of that sort of stuff. And as such, Template had been an even bigger help compared to Error. So, in a way, Template and Error404 bonded much more quicker than when compared to Error in where he trained with Error404.
And than, the incident that would change Template's life forever, happened. An Unnameable manage to somehow went out of the Book of Eyes and invaded the Multiverse. And the Out-Codes within the Multiverse were too powerless to stop it, and so, with Template and Error404 present, they needed up doing the same trick that Error and Error404 had done back then, in which Template and Error404 fused to transform into an entity that is strong enough to kill an Unnameable, and kill the Unnameable that they did. But unfortunately, just like the consequences of using this transformation, using it will not only take back the Code of the Multiverse, it will also kill one of the Components, and sure enough, Template had been the one to die from the aftermath of the transformation. And Error404, just like his original counterpart from the original Alphaverse, is forced to watch his apprentice, as well as the one that he saw as the closest to having a son, having died from this transformation.
But like Error, this would not be the end for Template. As the Unnameable made a biome and became a tree, Template, or at least, pieces of his code, had somehow been stored into the Unnameable, and inside of the tree, Template is sleeping on there, as his body is infused with the Unnameable, as well as another thing, as his soul is only that of Geno's, meaning that he has 1/9th of a Soul, the Unnameable began to use its power to fill in the rest of the soul with its own essence, as well as use the magic of its own soul. The purpose, is to try and control Template and use him as a vessel, but Template awoken at the right time, and was able to bust out of the tree, and was thankfully, spared from turning onto a vessel of the Unnameable. Unfortunately, the same cannot he said for Pale, who had became a vessel by taking its true soul, and thus, became the puppet of the Unnameable. But it is also where Template, now having became a Polothorn, gained the strength that he needed in order to protect the AU, while Pale gained the power that he needs in order to destroy an AU, and thus, while Template did get what he wanted, it is not in the way that he wanted it, and thus, Template is forced to live with this fact, as now, it is no longer about being a hero, for the time of heroes has passed...since that day.
