Finale

The once-turbulent skies over Arcadia cleared, revealing a city reborn from the ashes of temporal chaos. Dr. Oliver Kane, now a frail and elderly figure, stood amidst the ruins of his laboratory. The air, once crackling with the energy of temporal anomalies, now carried a haunting stillness.

Seraphina approached, her gaze reflecting the echoes of battles fought in the shadows of time. The scars of the temporal battle etched into her very essence, mirroring the disfigurement of the city she fought to save. The silence between them spoke volumes, a shared understanding of the profound cost paid for Arcadia's salvation.

As the protagonists parted ways, the weight of their choices hung in the air like a heavy fog. Oliver, his every step a testament to the toll exacted by time, watched Seraphina disappear into the shadows. The question lingered—had the sacrifice, the personal cost, been worth the salvation of Arcadia, or had they become prisoners of their own pasts?
