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. ]]

[ would phil have enjoyed puzzle hell???? ]

We didn't see very much until the end, actually. [ a wry smile. ] So it did feel a bit like throwing it into the void [ ha ] and hoping for the best.

I was hoping the magnifying glasses would have helped - I didn't get any earlier because they were prohibitively expensive.

[ shop discount shop discount! ]

They did, yes! Though I think I sort of wasted the two I managed to get before the price was lowered, so it was a blessing to be able to get the third...

Did you know that book would turn into ants when it came into contact with salt?

Definitely ants over here... I wasn't sure if I was supposed to find something important in it, so I lied about part of that decoded message at the meeting in hopes of directing attention elsewhere so I could retrieve it before Jack did. And, well...

[ Ants. ]

I suppose it's something of a relief if that was all I was supposed to find, though.

...Ironically, my lie was that the fountain was the important thing that should be investigated, and that turned out to be true.
