2 Weeks Later.
Cal stood alone in a garden, looking down at a stone tablet with flowers surrounding it. He was silent, just staring at the tablet. As he stood there, Elijah walked into the garden and approached him. As he stood next to Cal, he looked at the stone tablet.
"Keith Halrun, Vanguard and Friend."
"I'm sure he's proud of us." Said Elijah.
"Yeah." Cal replied.
"It was an honour having him." Said Elijah. "I'm sure he's enjoying the afterlife with his wife."
"We changed the future, Elijah." Said Cal.
"What do you mean?" Asked Elijah.
"Now, no more innocent people will die by Stellaria's hand." Cal replied.
"You're right, we did." Said Elijah.
"But, uh. There's a reason why I wanted to talk with you." Elijah continued.
"Hm?" Cal hummed.
"We found it." Said Elijah.

Vilentria, a week ago.
Stellaria's castle was overtaken by plant life, and the entire town of Vilentria was empty except for the castle.
A woman in a blue dress suit just stepped foot into the castle, the sound of her clicking heels echoed through the ruins. She walked down the hallway and entered an empty room, but inside the room was a skeleton leaning against a wall.
"There you are." The woman spoke.
She approached the skeleton, and crouched down in front of it. She then held her hand out and placed it on the right shoulder bone of the skeleton.
"Stellaria was unable to fulfill my request, so I guess I'll have to finish what I started myself." The woman said. "And maybe with a little bit of help from their own."
Ice began to spread out over the skeleton, encapsulating it in a frigid blanket. After a few seconds, the entire skeleton was looking like an icicle. The woman then picked the skeleton up and lifted it onto her shoulders and walked out of the room.
Something was on the horizon.
