Darien made his return at long last to the Village of Castes. Setting Serena down roughly where his home once sat, he reached into Melia's home, and went straight for her spare roses. Grateful that they had been spared from Malachus's attack, she went back to Serena, and set one of the roses in her hair. The flower let forth a burst of yellow pollen, some of which went into Serena's mouth, restoring her vitality little by little.
"Serena… you're all right, aren't you?" Darien asked.
"Of course I am… where are we?" Serena asked.
"The Village of Castes… I couldn't think of a better place to heal you. Thankfully, Melia's roses are in good condition," Darien said.
"…Melia?" Serena asked.
"A Roselia. She was a great companion… but Malachus killed my entire village. I was spared because I was finding flowers for her," Darien said.
"Oh my… no wonder… so…" Serena said.
"It doesn't matter, Serena. I will stand by your side, as I would have hers. She would not have wanted me to grow old alone: she befriended me to avoid that. And if she were alive today, I reckon she would've taken a fancy to you," Darien said. Serena giggled.
Tome Burner Amy: Amy continued upon her path as an academic and scholar. Her fascinations begot great discoveries.
Cuddly Dragon Lita: Lita took over Hiwaka Shrine in the absence of Amber. She raised several daughters to become great women.
Meadow's Peace Mina: Mina stayed at the side of Amy her whole life, cooking many Poffins. Anyone who stole a bite marvelled at her culinary skill.
Wily Ruler Justyn: Justyn abdicated his throne, the failures he had committed weighing heavily on his heart. He dispensed wisdom in the Dark Pit, visiting Lita on occasion.
Loyal Companion Madeline: Madeline stood by Darien and Serena, eventually mothering their children. She preferred this to her estrangement with Justyn.
Water Marksman Chibouk: Chibouk started a school, training many in the art of water aiming. Accuracy became common amongst soldiers.
Telekinetic Master Giac: Giac's telekinetic prowess was put to good use against brigands that weren't dark type, giving him a name worth putting in history books.
Metallic Juggernaut Aaron: Aaron never took damage again. End of story. Gossipers still ponder how exactly one would go about defeating him.
Legendary Soul Luna: Luna returned the Soul Dew to its rightful place amongst Legendaries, but lived out her friend's lives with them. She returned home only once her friends had died of old age.
Stealthy Bulk Melody: Melody retired from thieving, and became a lovely housewife. Though she was tough to find during the night.
Mascot Mercenary Stanley: Stanley returned to the forests he called home, stopping by only to visit Mina. He never did like the spotlight.
Suplex Watcher John: John worked alongside the Sisters of Pegasus, doing on the ground what they were unable in the air. Which wasn't much.
Judo Fighter Smith: Smith fought well when he did. Very few sagas will detail which fights he participated in.
Swift Wing Loot: Loot trained in the art of speed, becoming a free-lance knight. It is said he can cross the kingdom in an hour, but that is likely an overestimate.
Darkened Light Jadit: Jadit worked an honest life for an honest pay. It was he who cared for the children of his life, while Melody took the harder path.
Robotic Knight Nephalem: Nephalem stayed by Darien's side, serving him… loyally. Deciding whether to dismantle him ended in a coin flip.
Gutsy Sister Angela: Angela perfected her Guts ability, and became a great knight. Future groups of birds go by 'Sisters of Angela'.
Cloudy Sister Indira: Indira stood by her sister, helping her keep the heat down in battle, and being a great, if eccentric, sister out of it.
Jane of all Trades Sierra: Sierra didn't continue with the Sisters full time, instead training in a variety of arts. She remained a Sister to continue the legacy of the Triangle Attack only.
Devoted Guardian Suzin: Suzin took over guarding all eighteen Type Trinkets, once their worth had been called into question. No one managed a theft again.
Iron Lady Okemos: Okemos wandered the land, bringing aid to knights the world over. Her strengths were not to be taken lightly, and her companionship with Jadit was unforgotten.
Ocean's Corsair Gwarhar: Gwarhar sailed the seas, looking for new lands and pirates alike. He assembled a much nicer crew this time.
Mage of Shadow Xarnorth: Xarnorth established a school for Special Attackers. His wisdom permeated the ages more than Suzin's, which is probably for the better.
Dragon's Valour Arthur: Arthur immediately took to the Dragon Realm and stamped out the nonsense leading to Lita. He took this approach to any and all nonsense since.
Mischievous Mistress Pisky: Pisky stayed nearby Darien, a friend from his past. However, she did go around as a Clefairy quite a bit, to some unknown purpose.
Steadfast Psychic Serena: Serena was a loving and faithful wife to Darien, as well as a confident mistress when she put her mind to it.
Great Lord Darien: For nothing more than his service, Darien was saddled with the throne. His rule was regarded as a golden age… even if the king was mostly going along by the skin of his teeth.
