EPILOGUE

[faentasy]

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. ]]

[ He laughs a little at that. But then at the next he says, it's...wow. ]

Wait, really? I mean we concluded that on this side too, that the shopkeeper was suspicious, but...how did you guys handle her?

It wasn't too much trouble, was it?

[ He's asking because he really doesn't know. ]

[goldencave]

Well...

[ How does he explain this without sounding completely insane... Ah, screw it. He wasn't the only one who had to deal with her. ]

It was actually pretty hard, considering she turned into a giant, fire breathing caterpillar monster...

Wound having to use a ton of explosives... And the palace caved in... But at least everyone else made it out fine.

[ In hindsight, maybe that plan was a bit close for comfort, but there weren't too many options! ]

[biyishuangfei]

[ ..........Dear lord. ]

I'm...I'm glad you guys made it out despite all of that. I hope she's gone for good too.

[ ... ]

...You know, I think I'm also going to be sick of seeing bugs after all of this. If you know what I mean?

[goldencave]

She didn't chase us to the rifts after that, so... Yeah. She's probably dead.

[ Or at least trapped in a void with jello molds. Who knows, as long as she never returns. ]

Who wouldn't? The little bastards were everywhere you looked.

[biyishuangfei]

[ Oh my god ]

Well, good riddance.

[ ... ]

And you can say that again, unfortunately. Oh! What are you doing after all of this, by the way? I'm sure you have a lot to catch up on?

[goldencave]

Nah... Hardly anything to look forward to where I'm from.

[ Huaisang might know why Norton's reluctant to go home... ]

Problem is... Where do I go from here?

[biyishuangfei]

[ ...Yeaaah, he certainly does. But, hm, the question does give him some pause. ]

How about do some traveling? Maybe see if somewhere else sticks to you better?

We have a lot more options now, and many places to see. You can even drop by Qinghe at some point if you'd like.

[goldencave]

Wait, we can visit each other's worlds whenever we want?

[ Thanks for the news, this sure opens up a lot more options for him. ]

I wouldn't mind stopping by, though I imagine there might be quite a few people looking at me funny.

[ Partially because of the scarring, partially because... Uh... How many men are running around ancient China with short hair and 19th century work clothes? He'd stick out like a sore thumb. ]

[biyishuangfei]

Mhm, we sure can.

[ Huaisang's glad to help! It should make traveling an easier amount of time for his loved ones and friendos.

And everyone else, he guesses (lol). ]

Hmm, well not in Qinghe. I'd just tell my disciples that you're a good friend of mine from far away and to treat you with respect.
