King Ezran died in 1280, the 34th year of the new Era. Empress Aanya followed him a few years later, in 1283.

After his death, the imperial throne was occupied by his son, who would have ruled the country for thirty years as Harrow III.

He was a capable ruler, but little loved by his subjects because of his attempts at centralization, which brought him into conflict with the aristocracy. At his side was Tiadrin, who went down in history as the Dark Empress of Katolis for her fame of being a dark mage, her cold attitude, and her mysterious past.

Despite this, almost all historians today agree that their reign was mostly peaceful and prosperous.

Lord Callum and Lady Rayla remained at the side of the King and their daughter for many years to come.

Rayla died in 1301, during the Temple Conspiracy, when a group of nobles attempted to assassinate the imperial family within the Temple of Justice. Thanks to her sacrifice, however, Harrow and Tiadrin were able to escape and the conspiracy was thwarted. Her body was burned and her ashes were scattered according to the Xadian custom.

Lord Callum was the last member of Team Zym, except the Dragon King, to die, at the venerable age of ninety-four. Perhaps even more than Ezran he had helped lay the foundations of the Empire, and would go down in history as one of the greatest magicians who ever lived.

With his death, the last great protagonist of the reign of King Ezran disappears. Thus my Chronicle also ends: the gods are merciful, they have allowed me to live long enough to complete my work.

All my life, I have dedicated myself to reconstructing the era of Ezran, and to seeking answers to the many mysteries that surround it. Some of these answers I found, some still escape me, and maybe it is for the best.

We study history to learn from the past. The reign of King Ezran teaches us that the road to peace is difficult, but that it is possible to follow it; that there is no hatred so great that it cannot be appeased.

In these turbulent times, the figure of Ezran stands before us as a beacon of wisdom.

I conclude with a final quote, this time from the tragedy "Harrow in Evemere", by the poet Ascalos: it is not a historical source, but the readers will forgive me a little sentimentality.

"What makes a king great? It is not the power of his armies, nor the strength of his arm, nor the cunning of his mind, nor the gold contained in his coffers. A king is only truly great if, even after his death, his name is still loved in the memory of his people."

It has been almost four hundred years, and Ezran's name still manages to arouse emotions and hopes.

I would dare to say that he passed the test.
