ALONNA Aradeus,you defeated Erubus.It's over!It's finally over! VAJIIC Yes.Perhaps now,the world,can return to normal. ARADEUS The Demonlord,and his Minions are no more.Maybe there will,be a return to normalcy.But i shall not,witness it with you. Aradeus directs their attention,skyward.Where they spot two Ancients,floating silently overhead. ARADEUS I'm afraid,i cannot remain here.I have joined with them. ALONNA Joined with them? What do you mean? ARADEUS It's a rather long story.We made an agreement.I intend to keep my end,of the bargain. VAJIIC Where shall you go,Aradeus?

Staring at the Valekai.King Lightaxe,approaches King Amrod,lord of the Elves. KING LIGHTAXE What about your corrupted brethren,Amrod? King Amrod,steps out from among,his Elve divisions, and addressess the Valekai. KING AMROD Brethren hear me! The war is over!There is no reason, to continue fighting.The Lord of Darkness,is no more. Your cause is lost.Put down your weapons,and join us in peace. The Valekai murmur,amongst themselves.Suddenly,a robed figure,steps out from,amidst them.It removes it's hood, revealing it to,be a male Elve,of the Valekai. MALE VALEKAI I am Xel'Tixnor.Our leader is dead.I speak in her place. Your offer for peace,sounds interesting.But can we trust you? If we,drop our weapons,what guarantee do we have,that you will,let us live? King Amrod commands,all under his command,to lower their weapons!Everyone does,even those under,the leadership of the Dwarves,Humans,and Ogres. KING AMROD You have my word,as Lord of Elvinia,that no one here, shall harm you. XEL'TIXNOR And you will,let us return home? KING AMROD If that is your wish. Xel'tixnor speaks to his Valekai,in their native tongue. Afterward,they all drop,their weapons. XEL'TIXNOR We have decided,that we shall return to,our homeland. KING AMROD Xel'tixnor,can there be peace,between us? The Coal skinned,green eyed,male Elve stands contemplating King Amrod's question. XEL'TIXNOR I do not know.That remains to be seen.For now,we shall return to our homeland. Xel'tixnor turns his back,on King Amrod,about to follow his soldiers,across the Desert.Suddenly he stops,and looks back,at King Amrod,and shouts: XEL'TIXNOR You have not,seen the last of us,King Amrod!Until next time!

SIX DAYS LATER- INT-PALACE-FITTING ROOM-OLEDDON-DAY Alonna is being,fitted and having her,wardrobe placed on her,while she stands,before a mirror.After the two Tailors are finished,she stares at herself,in the mirror. She spots a strand,of gray hair,amidst her sea of black. She turns, towards Jasiah. ALONNA Has it been this long? Have i been away,fighting,against the demonlord,for so long? I have aged,this much? JASIAH All the makings,of a wise ruler,my Queen. Alonna smiles.The two exit the fitting room.
