Epilogue: A New Day

In the end, hope triumphed over hate. A new pantheon of gods, gathered from all corners of the universe, came together to unlock the ultimate power and it it flow over the land once more. They proved one goddess that her wisdom was correct, and another that her wisdom was keeping her trapped in a vision of the world that would never be.

You exit the temple of Olympus, battered and bruised, but more together than ever before. Athena raises her hand and drags it before her. In the distance, the keen-eyed will see the barrier that's long protected you finally fading away.

The sun shines down. Two months and you're finally, finally free.

Athena takes care to thank each of you personally. This was exactly what her and Fenyx had theorized was possible - not exactly, but the outcome is greatly acceptable. And now, Athena is bound by her oath to return you home... or wherever it is you'd like to go. You're gods now, you have the privilege.

Speaking of! Once everyone's rested and healed, Fenyx prepared a little get-together for everyone on the cliffs, with a special bonus: they can bring in any person you desire. Family and friends are preferable, but who are they to question if you want to smack your rival across the face for the first time in weeks?

They may react in confusion, however, if you tell them about the bits of Hope buzzing in the air like glowing fireflies. They're not gods, after all. They can't see them.

Dipping lower around half-day, you may peer over the side of the area and see far, far down into the valleys of ocean and cities. And beyond all of that, sailing in from the horizon, ships. Old ships of man-made nature. Sails billowing in a wind that no longer tears them asunder. Now that the storm has passed, life can resume picking up the pieces.

It will be messy, probably a disaster at times, but there's always hope. And if that carried you here, then maybe it will bring those people to the top of the mountain.

[This is the final post of Let's Play A Murder! Players are welcome to invite cast members to this log for the purpose of tagging out reunions (Fenyx and Athena will have personally greeted and asked to bring them here). You may tag this at your leisure, whatever last-minute endeavors you'd like your characters to get into will go here.

Thank you for playing.

Hm! That would certainly be interesting, to do so from so close...

Might even be able to go on a space-walk. We could probably rig up some kind of equestrian space suit.

Space suit...? Whatever for?

Breathing.

[And a few other things, you know. Space is disease and danger wrapped in etc etc.]

...is that a thing your powers just. Handle.

...I cannot say I gave it much thought at the time, but I did not have any trouble with the moon.

[ At least not like...like that? ]

...maybe we should cross this bridge when we come to it.

[There's. Probably ways to check this without just shoving Luna out an airlock or something.]

Oh, wait- were you the only one besides your sister who could get into space, did you ever, like. Take anyone with you?
raisethemoon: ([so why do I want to?])

No, I have never tried that! I...do not think it would go so well for the average pony...

[ Even if she can handle it well enough, Luna's not unaware of the conditions. ]

It is probably something to do with our excess of magic - that is also why our manes are like this. Mine returned to ordinary hair for a time, after Nightmare Moon was defeated.

I feel like you're really gonna blow some minds in a fun way.

[Fun for Vanity, at least. Hopefully for Luna.]
