Epilogue:

The sun had just filtered over the Labyrinth's crumbling walls when Jareth, the Goblin King, breathed his final breath. Although pain seared through his body he died in peace, with the knowledge that the Labyrinth would have its wish.

The Labyrinth began to fade as the sun rose higher, and the people within its walls sat sit, patiently waiting for their own time to come. The Labyrinth, which loved its people, made sure it was swift and painless for them – as if a thousand creatures simply fell asleep.

The healer, throughout the rest of her life never let anyone speak badly of the past King in her presence, and always corrected people on his life. She stove to life her life as he had, in calm contemplation and with bravery.

She must have succeeded, because when she herself passed on, the people around her commented on how at peace she was waiting for the Reaper.

Author's Notes:

Yes, it is short… it came to me late one night and I had to get up and begin it right away. I've worked three late nights on it, so I hope the spelling and grammar is all good and I hope you enjoyed it. ^_^

Not often you see Jareth die alone and without a lover by his side, dying with him, or even die at all, is it? I like being semi unique

And now, once I have spelt and one the whole Christmas thing, I promise I will get on with To Err is Human XD
