EPILOGUE

Epilogue

After all is said and done, in the wake of the void and sprinting through one final door.

You come out into light. Sunlight actually, a backyard in what appears to be a typical suburban town, if you're familiar with those. The sun shines cheerfully overheard, blissfully unaware of what everyone has went through. And this is everyone, as faces you haven't seen in weeks tumble out in one pile from a basement door.

Happy Saturday, everyone.

There's plenty of reunions and catching up to do, but you've utterly left Aira Niluc behind you after seven long weeks. And through the window of the house which looks like it has seen a better seen better days is one wall mural that reads "And they all lived Happily Ever After".

[[ Happy Golden End everyone, you've earned it! There's still the matter of sorting out where to next, but everyone is whole and alive and without button eyes. Using the knowledge from the object Phil had and the beldam's magic, they can also now world hop only one side effect...the portal that opens to everyone else's worlds here? Is made entirely of pixie dust. Everyone's powers will also restore fully over the course of the next few hours. ]]

[ Of course! By now she's a lot more used to the sudden attacks, so she tenses way less and for not as long before she reciprocates the hug. ]

Yuri. I'm glad to see you're all right.

I'm glad to see you, too. Mister Nageki told me a little of what happened. I hope it wasn't too harsh down there...

It... could have been much worse, I think. Things grew a little dangerous at the end [ understatement of the century ], but we managed to make it through.

[ She pulls back slightly, but doesn't break the hug. ]

And you all? We saw you fighting at the end, and a little bit in between, but we've been mostly cut off for the majority.

Hamelin helped us regain some of our powers - so we had that and all the determination in the world to make her pay - for your lives and for ours.

[ Yuri really, really, REALLY wanted to make her pay. She's so satisfied now. ]

Yes... the chasm between the living and the dead. It was awkward and frustrating at times, wasn't it? I'm thankful we're all on the same side now.
