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. ]]

[hellochildren]

[While a certain player wasn't exactly present through...all of that mess, a bird certainly was. Too bad for most of it he was on autopilot of reading notes aloud or killing bugs, because physical fighting was never his specialty.

But hey. He's here both physically and mentally now, and despite the new feelings of guilt weighing on this bird's mind...he's got a future ahead of him now. A bright one, and he's not gonna let it go any time soon.

But that doesn't mean he's entirely changed, as evidenced when he lands on someone's shoulder and speaks.]

I can't believe we actually mate it.

[He smiles as he says that, but it is most definitely the truth.]

[laytorest]

[She can't help but smile back.]

It's hard to believe, but we did it. And it sounds like we'll all be able to see each other even when we go our separate ways, too!

[THAT is an especially exciting prospect.]

[hellochildren]

Very fortunate, consitering the circumstances. It seems zat I can follow srough wis all of my plans raser than only one.

[He looks at the mural in the house for a second, before turning back to Yor.]

If I have any say in sings, ve will all be getting our personal happily ever afters.

[laytorest]

[Blinking in confusion.]

What are your other plans?

[hellochildren]

Oh, you know.

[He waves his wing a little-the avian equivalent to this hand gesture.]

Dealing wis a deadly spirit. Curing a brain disease zat has scarred a village many times. And fixing up the issues in my own worlt, of course.

Just the sings you woult expect from the former greatest criminal genius parrot in the worlt.

[because clearly there are so many criminal genius parrots]

1/2

[laytorest]

...I don't think there are any other parrots in this world?

[laytorest]

[Yor. Please.]

Oh - by the spirit, do you mean the one from Suga's world?

[gemuinemanagement]

[Pericles' weight is familiar to him now. Scritch scritch scritch.]

We did it!
I'm proud of us

[hellochildren]

[Suga is using the power of scritches to deliberately get the parrot's love and Pericles is LIVING for it]

As am I.

I believe I am going to have my vork cut out for me, now zat sings have ended. If ve truly can travel srough all our worlts, I am not sure if I can live wis letting some stay as zey are.

[gemuinemanagement]

[He loves his friend and wants to share that affection!]

What will you be fixing first?

[hellochildren]

[fair, that's why he's going to be doing things in other people's canons]

Eizer I'll deal vith the easy difficulty of handling Herr Campbell's financial woes, or challenge myself wis curing a disease zat may be magical in origin in Frau Rika's worlt.

After zat, I was sinking of helping however I can wis a certain pesky forest spirit.

[gemuinemanagement]

Those are good goals to have
I'll teach you how to work with refined glowstone
I'm sure you'll be able to make something magnificent
(At no risk to you, refined glowstone is harmless)

[goldencave]

Neither can I...

[ Hey birdie. Norton doesn't mind you perching on his shoulder. ]

To tell you the truth, I thought I was gonna stay dead for a while.

[hellochildren]

To be fair, I believe all of us sought as much at some point-especially wis zat giant insect near the end.

[At the very least that's when Pericles was half expecting to die permanently or something-that was straight up scary!

...and there's a lightbulb over his head now.]

Do you still wish to permanently fix your financial situation, my friend? Or do you believe you have greater sings to deal vith?

1/??

[goldencave]

Yup... [ No one expected the giant insect near the end... ]

2/??

[goldencave]

[ Wait. ]

3/??

[goldencave]

[ This guy can't be serious, could he? ]

4/??

[goldencave]

. . .

5/5 I'm done

[goldencave]

... Are you offering me a job? 'Cause I ain't planning on going back where I came from.

[ Pericles seems safer than the invite, not gonna lie. ]

[hellochildren]

[He's flattered]

A sort. I have some sings zat neet to be done back on my worlt-mistakes to fix and such-but I do not trust myself to go back zere, at least not alone.

Vhat I woult neet of you woult be simple, zough I have anozer sing to ask for zat I do not expect success wis. I can promise you a handsome payment vonce you are done wis the tasks.

[goldencave]

[ Luckily for Pericles, Norton's already used to going in dangerous places with low chances of success. ]

What would you need me to do?

[mearry]

That was more than enough adventure for my lifetime.

[ he chuckles a bit. ]

Ready to live in a tiny village, sensei?

[hellochildren]

[He chuckles a bit as well.]

If not for everyvone else's issues, I woult be more zan willing to retire from such adventures permanently.

[He lets out another pleased huff.]

Yes. My vork may not be over yet, but having some time to relax vill be...pleasant.

[mearry]

Oh~ a traveling professor, then? [ he nods, eyes widening with curious interest. ] I think lots of places will probably appreciate having your help. Any place that you want to start at?

I’d say I’d help, but I am probably gonna have my hands full taking care of Koutarou. He talks like it’s nothing, but being hated by the entire village sounds too tough to handle on your own.

[hellochildren]

It is not common for vone to travel srough dimensions, but yes. I vill be doing at least some traveling, now zat sings are over.

Directly, I plan to aid Frau Rika's worlt first. Wis how desperate her situation truly is, I believe it best for her situation to improve as soon as possible. If I can find somevone willing, zough, I hope to send somevone back to my worlt to aid my former enemies-perhaps get a former ally to see reason.

[Because when you change sides morally, you have to deal with the consequences of your actions-at least somewhat.]

I understand. If you neet assistance, do not hesitate to get my attention. I doubt Herr Suga woult approve of any more disappearances, but I woult not be against convincing a village person or two zat they have gone insane.

[He speaks like that may be something he's done before.]
