                     that night , two lovers lay under a godless sky , 
            hands clasped together and refusing to part in afterlife - 
                 one killed by betrayal , the other by it's burden alone.
                           but they know each other - 
             they can recognise the other by their footsteps , by their scent -
                              in blindness and even in death.
                   so when thanatos kissed the stardust of their souls , 
                and the world rejoiced the end of a cruel monster - 
                 aphrodite mourned the loss of two unbound lovers.


                            somewhere two universes away , 
                                        a child was born - 
                 relieved from the burden of a prophecy
                           he would never hear about.


                        THE END WAS NEITHER BEAUTIFUL , nor sad , nor taking one by surprising - but a fulfilling , well-expected one. It came as a soft wind over the sea of sighing , shifting waves - in the form of a bittersweet lullaby a mother whispers in her child's ear as she rocks it to sleep. And perhaps , one could have argued that Tom Riddle didn't deserve the way the world ended him , but the furies had known his end was near the day his fate collided with Rowan's.

And about Rowan Eldwin ?

There is not a single hero who has died happy.
