{Orbit}

[Two blue stars decend onto an area of sparkles. Pythoris and Lyrinn lay there unconcious for a moment, embracing each other. They then wake up, look at each other, and then pull themselves into an embrace.]

Pythoris
... Sister.

Lyrinn
Brother...

[Pythoris gets up and looks around. In front of them, a town awaits their arrival. Somewhat it seemed familiar to them. The siblings eventually stand up and hold hands.]

Pythoris
Let's go...

[They slowly walk towards the town and notice a group of people awaiting their arrival. Tanralios, a blessed one, an Ederi male, two Dayliri siblings, Akirianis, Aoilis, Calibe, and finally, Thalasso. After so long, Pythoris and Lyrinn recongize who some of these people were. Akirianis and Thalasso run towards the siblings and hug them crying. Lyrinn was relieved to be reunited with her loved ones while Pythoris was guilty of letting everyone down.]

Pythoris
I'm sorry... I failed you all...

Akirianis
You did not fail us Pythoris! You did what you could against corruption.

Thalasso
You protected us until the very end... We missed you both...

Lyrinn
We missed you too...

[Everyone else starts to gather around. The four slowly let go and Akirianis and Thalasso join the circle around Lyrinn and Pythoris. Aoilis and Calibe approach Pythoris with a smile.]

Aoilis
I never expected someone as young as you to take on something so big... you are a remarkable leader Pythoris. I wish I could have told you that earlier.

Calibe
Pythoris, you done something no other leader has done. You gave everyone more than a decade of peace while you fought valiantly.

Pythoris
Thank you guys...

[The two turn their attention to Lyrinn.]

Aoilis
Lyrinn... you saved everyone. Now our efforts won't be in vain.

Calibe
You both fought for the greater good. We are both more than proud of you.

[The two leaders join back in the circle. The siblings turn their attention to the last five people.]

Dynasti
It's good to see you again Pythoris. You're all grown up the last time I saw you. And Lyrinn, holy moly you look as pretty as mother.

Tanralios
Oh classic Dynasti. *laughs*

Ederi Female
Come on dear, Dynasti is right. Look at our daughter.

Lyrinn
Mother? Lyricalus?

Lyricalus
Yes dear... I am your mother. You and Pythoris are my children.

Pythoris
I... never knew.

[Pythoris was filled with surprise on his face. Lyrinn giggles.]

Shinesty
Mom? Will they be able to stay?

Lyricalus
I'm afraid... no.

Lyrinn
What do you mean?

Tanralios
You two died in the Area of Sacrifice.

Pythoris
What does that mean?

Tanralios
You two will continue your lives as you are now in the surface. However, if you wish to visit us again, can always go to the Area of Sacrifice.

Pythoris
I see...

Lyricalus
My children...

[Lyricalus hugs Pythoris and Lyrinn.]

Lyricalus
I'm sorry your father and I could not be there for you.

[Lyrinn smiles sadly.]

Lyrinn
It's okay mother...

Pythoris
You wanted the best for us. To live as you did.

Tanralios
We have always loved you both.

Shinesty
You two take care of each other as always.

Dynasti
Yeah. If anything, I'm glad we get to have a short family reunion.

Pythoris
Yeah...

[Suddenly, Pythoris notices that he does not see Alice and wonders what had happened to her.]

Pythoris
Uncle?

Allister
Yes my child?

Pythoris
Where's mom?

Allister
She's been reincarnated.

Pythoris
She's alive?

Lyrinn
She was reincarnated just because she wanted to take care of me. So she was reborn as Syronos, my adoptive brother.

Akirianis
I knew your adoptive mother would come back so I waited for her and eventually, she did.

[A portal of while appears on the other side of the town. The group slowly walks towards it and then they all stop. Tanralios and Lyricalus go to Pythoris and Lyrinn and give each them a necklace with a gem pendant: The Gems of Orbit.]

Lyricalus
These gems are created from the Light for you two. You must keep them and use them for their own good. These gems are like the blessed gem however they are much stronger and have impactful effects. The power of orbit is within these gems, only orbital lifeforms can wield it with ease.

Tanralios
I'm sure you two will have no problem using them but you must use them for the greater good. Can you two do that?

Pythoris / Lyrinn
Yes father.

[Pythoris and Lyrinn give one last hug to everyone and then they all waved goodbye before moving closer to the portal. Holding hands, they went in.]
