Epilogue

Months had passed since the final battle, and the world had begun to heal. The cities of Aethira were slowly rebuilding, and the scars of the Sovereign's reign of terror were beginning to fade.

Kai, Luna, and Zara had returned to the capital, where they were hailed as heroes. But for them, the greatest reward was the knowledge that the world was safe—and that they had played a part in protecting it.

One evening, as the sun set over the horizon, the three of them stood on a hill overlooking the city. Luna stretched lazily, her fur gleaming in the fading light.

"So, what's next for us?" she asked, a hint of mischief in her voice. "More adventures? Or do we finally get to retire?"

Kai smiled, his heart light. "Maybe a little bit of both. We've earned some rest, but…who knows what the future holds?"

Zara laughed softly. "I have a feeling there will always be something out there waiting for us."

As the last light of day disappeared beyond the horizon, the three friends stood together, ready for whatever the future had in store.

Their journey was far from over—but for now, they had found peace.

And in the end, that was all they had ever wanted.

The End.
