Elora's eyes fluttered open, several people standing over her. She couldn't see clearly, and didn't know where she was, but she definitely was not in a sewer.

"I guess so. We finished the game, smarty pants," Nixton replied.
"We'll see each other again," Hadlee cut in. "And, if you ever need a job, you can babysit these three."

They had finished this silly game.
Now they were leaving each other to continue on with their lives, as if nothing had ever happened.
"Why are we doing this?" Elora asked. "We've gone through deaths together. Why are we splitting up now? Why don't we all just move into a house together?" She joked.
And so they did.
