Now let's start the last chapter.

THE BATTLE OF RAGNAROK

The Norse myth describing the terrifying battle that ends the world, carries within it hope for renewal. Kurama and Maya---whose names literally mean "life" and "Eager for Life"---Are not just the last man and woman on earth. They also become the first people in the new world that rises from old.

Yusuke, the mischievous, trouble-making god, caused many calamities for the gods of Makai. Of these the most terrible was killing Yama's son, Koenma the beautiful, the god of light.

All the gods of Makai rose up in fury against Yusuke. He tried to escape their terrible anger by hiding away in the mountains, but the gods found him and bound him in chains, with a serpent hanging above him, dripping venom on him.

His wife Keiko catches most of the venom in a cup, but every now and then a drop hits Yusuke's face, and he thrashes and howls.

Then the whole earth trembles. But one day, after three terrible, fierce winters pass with no summer between them, Yusuke's son, the wolf-monster Souta, will release his father from his chains, and Ragnarok, the final battle, will begin.

Souta will devour the sun and moon, the stars will tumble from the heavens, and lightning will shatter the sky.

The rainbow bridge that joins Makai to Rekai will burst into flames, and Yusuke and the fire-giant Hiei will lead the giants into battle against the gods.

Hiei will set the world ablaze, and all the warriors—gods as well as giants—will perish in the flames.

Only Yama's son Itachi, who will slay Souta, will survive.

One human couple will survive too—Kurama and his wife Maya, who will take shelter in the branches of Neitherworld, the world-tree.

When the battle of Ragnarok is over, they will climb down, ready to bring life and hope to the world once more.
