EPILOGUE
So.
Juniper is dead. Lorelei and Florence are alive. And the rest of you, thankfully, are also alive and kicking.
The building is kind of a mess right now, and a lot of the citizens are in kind of disarray, confused and uncertain of what exactly is going on in the Camellia tower. Things are a bit of a mess right now, but what matters is that you’ve stopped things. The cycle of these experiments, suppression – it’s over.
Your markings are still here, however. You are free to try and figure that out, too (though the answer is, indeed, quite simple with the "B" toggle, and may be hand waved). Other than that, though, everything seems to be...stabilized. As good as they can be, anyway. Lorelei and Florence are around, for any last conversations. When you emerge, the sun is out, perhaps brighter than usual – though whether that’s because of joy from the citizens or confusion is anyone’s guess – and some of you are covered in blood, but you are here.
And you are ready to finally, finally return home.
---
(OOC: For anyone who's willing, Lorelei will be able to configure tablets to synch up with the portal here at Estelline. From there, they will be able to world hop to someone else's world; so the Estelline portal is now a hub, of sorts. It's not a direct world hop and it's a bit inconvenient, but it is a way for you guys to see each other again.
She will also ensure that those who are currently sleeping will be sent home in one piece.
All of this can be handwaved, or threaded out in the Lorelei thread.
Happy Good Ending, everyone!)

[He was also hoping the dying thing was dealt with. Worries on top of worries, although there's not much they can do without more information. He gives a little sigh.]
I know I said Hien was the idiot. But I hope he can keep you from doing anything careless as well.
no subject
[ It does mean a lot that Phantom is so willing to help. ]
And I think he will. He’s already helped me with some of my own more ignorant thoughts.
[ Like thinking he deserves to be hated. ]
no subject
[Well, he's still worried. Phantom doesn't exactly have so many friends that any of them are expendable.]
no subject
[ Whoever picked their team did a great job… ]
And Hien would never let me go without him, so don’t worry in the future either.

You have a point! Though to tell you the truth, I'm just as stubborn as he is.
no subject
[Well, it probably does work out for the best that they're both like that.]

And I hope that, whatever you do, you feel at peace with your decision.
