It is over at long last, and though much of what has happened defies explanation, we have been able to determine some truths.
Fact One: The Death of Wonder Woman. During the course of the battle, the Amazon Princess was killed by the Monitor whilst her doppleganger from Earth-167 was seemingly erased from the timeline as the timestream began to reset.
Fact Two: Mount Olympus.
Zeus looked down from up high and saw a grave injustice had been dealt. Earth-76's Wonder Woman, beautiful as Aphrodite, wise as Athena, stronger than Hercules and swifter than hermes had no world to call her own. The King of the Gods knew her great powers came from the Gods. She could not be abandoned. Apollo's Chariot was dispatched to bring Princess Diana to Mount Olympus. And there she would live, happily ever after.
Fact Three: The Deaths.
Gotham City
The bodies of Earth-167's Robin and Blue Lantern were never found. Still, there were graveside services. They would not be forgotten.
Central City
Caitlin Snow mourned the erasure of her alter: the one known only as Frost. The bigger injustice for all though was the lost of Barry Allen, the hero remembered as the second Flash.
Fact Four: The Rebirths
Gateway City
Donna Troy reflected on her pass as she mourned the loss of her sister. And the responsibility she now holds.

Above Metropolis
[Communicator Beeps]
Clark: Hey, Lois.
Lois: Clark, I need you to get to Metropolis now. It's the boys.
Clark: The boys? Yeah, honey, your sons.
Washington DC, the White House
While in a hard-fought battle, loss is expected. It never gets any easier, so it is with great sadness that I must inform you that two of our worlds greatest hero's: Princess Diana, the heroine called Wonder Woman and Barry Allen, the second hero we know as the Flash. They sacrificed their lives for our world's survival. They are known to us as being amongst the first of our heroes, and while these are devastaing losses, we can take solace in knowing that they lived as they died: with love and honor. I now ask you all to join me in a moment of silence to honor them.

Diggle: Thanks for beiliving in us as heroes, even when the rest of us didn't.
Kara: You had this way of bringing out the very best in all of us.
Hal: I'm gonna miss you, man.
J'onn: That much, we all will.
Kendra: It's hard to believe he's gone.
Sara: It sometimes seems like life moves so fast. This is a reminder to cherish the time we have.

Bruce: I wasn't Barry's closest friend, but he was most certainly a great man.

[Door Opens, Donna Troy enters]
Donna: Sorry, I'm late.
Wally: I like the new outfit.
Donna: I felt it was time for a change, especially as I'm now the new Wonder Woman.
Hal: But Wally, why'd you choose a condemned building?
Wally: What? No, this is not a condemned building. No, listen, this is an old STAR Labs Research Facility that Barry inherited from Thawne that nobody uses, and what's even better, no one knows it exists.
Hal: Good for you.
Wally: No, good for us. I figure we could all use this to gather if anything ever happens again.
Clark: It's a great idea, Wally.
Wally: Thanks, Clark.
J'onn: It's a better option than you all dropping by the DEO.
Jefferson: Why do we even need it? I mean, how often does the world almost come to an end?
Wally: [Chuckles]
Jefferson: Oh, it's like that.
Kate: Don't worry, I was the new kid last year.
Wally: All right, listen, I haven't even shown you guys the best part yet. You ready?
[Wally pulls back the cloth to reveal a table with 13 seats.]

Arkham Asylum, Gotham City, New Jersey
Dr. October: I haven't seen anything like this before.
Aaron: I know what you mean. I've seen delusions before, but this one takes the proverbial cake. What is it he keeps blabberin' about?
Dr. October: Multiverses. Thousands of universes dying. And out of all of it, a New Earth is born. A shame. A real shame.
Psycho-Pirate: I'm the only one left who remembers the infinite Earths, you see, I know the truth. I remember all that happened and I'm not going to forget it. World's lived! World's died! And nothing will ever be the same! Those were great days for me. I had a good friend in the old days too. He was the Anti-Monitor and he was going to give me an Earth to rule. He's gone now, too. I like to remember the past because those were better times than now. I mean, I'd rather live in the past than today, wouldn't you? These days, you never know who's going to die, and who's going to live.
Not the end; The beginning of the future!
