In Bonesborough, Luz was lifting up a tree that fell on a building during one of the times that Belos and her knocked against the Isles.
"Up you go and back in the ground." Luz said, placing the tree back in the ground.
She drew a spell circle and made roots grow and reattach to the tree, making it stable in the ground.
"Thank you, great Titan. Thank you." A father said, bowing to Luz with his family.
"No problem, I'm happy to help. And please, just call me Luz." Luz said with a smile. "Now, let's fix your house."
Luz made another spell circle, making the earth moved around the house as vines rose up, picking up the broken parts of the house as the stone was repairing itself.
'Construction and Plant magic make an amazing combination.' Luz thought as she fixed the house, with the cracks only being slightly visible.
"Alright, that should do it." Luz said.
"Thank you again, Titan Luz. We are forever in your debt!" The mother said as the family bowed again.
"It's nothing really. Just live your life's and be good people." Luz said, summoning Stringbean and flying away.
"We will and when I grow up, I'm gonna be as great a witch as you are!" The child said, smiling brightly and waving goodbye to Luz.
Luz waved bye as well. This made Luz feel warm and happy inside, seeing them ready to pick up where their lives left off and a child inspired to be a good witch for the future. She flew over one of the memorials being built and frowned.
"Almost 400 people died, another 300 missing." Luz said, sighing at the sight. "No matter how much good I do, I can't help but feel sad about what happened."
Multiple people were around it, leaving tributes to the person while others were praying for them. Either to their safe return or their eternal rest.
'Even if I won and saved MOST of the Demon Realm, I failed to save so many other parts and people of it.' Luz thought as she looked ahead. 'Just another reminder that I need to fix everything, to help everyone get their lives back to any sense or normalcy.'
Luz flew a little more and landed somewhere private, a place she can clear her mind. She looked up at the large tree, the Grom Tree, smiling at the memories. Even if it has lost all its leaves for the year, it still looks beautiful.
"Hey there, Gromy. Did you miss me?" Luz asked as she sat against the tree.
She smiled as she remembered Grom Night, never imagining that just 5 months later things would be this way. All the days she spent here and all the days she could come back to the demon realm with a brand new door the Collector made for everyone.
She looked up at the tree and leaned against it.
"Aaaaaah." Luz let out, allowing herself to relax for a few moments.
The most peaceful and stress free moments she could have in rare moments she wasn't overworking herself. She felt Stringbean curl up on her lap.
Luz began petting her loyal palisman as she watched the horizon, the sunlight giving the world a magical glow.
"I wish this moment could last forever." Luz said to herself.
"Me too."
Luz jumped a bit as she saw Amity appear next to her, sitting down calmly.
"A-A-Amity! "W-w-what are you doing here?" Luz asked with a stutter.
"Just sitting like you and thinking about things." Amity said, staring at the horizon.
"W-What sort of thinks?" Luz asked, not looking at Amity.
"You know. Things like life, my family, my relationship with you…or more the lack of a relationship as of late." Amity said, looking down sadly. "Luz... why have you been avoiding me? Is it because of that nightmare sequence?"
"No, it's... it's not-"
"Then what is it?" Amity asked, looking at Luz, more specifically, the scar she has on her cheek. "Does it have something to do with this scar?"
Luz moved to cover the scar, looking away as she ties to think of a way to NOT say it. To make it seem like Amity had nothing to worry about.
'Think, Luz, think!' Luz thought as Stringbean looked up to her in worry.
"I-I just….It's more…." Luz said, fumbling over her words.
This made Amity sigh sadly as she had an idea of how to force the truth out of Luz. She just didn't want to do it but she had no choice.
"Luz, I'm sorry about this but I have no choice." Amity said, drawing a spell circle between them.
Before Luz could reply, Amity reached through and grabbed Luz's hand as they both gained a slight glow.
'Wait, is this an Everlasting Oath?' Luz thought with great surprise.
Amity didn't want to do this, but she had no real choice now.
"The oath has been made." Amity said, letting go of Luz's hand.
"Amity, what did you just do?" Luz asked, looking at her hand.
"Something I never thought I would have to do but I have no choice." Amity said, slowly raising her hand to her heart. "Luz, I NEED You to tell me the truth about why you've been acting this way; why you've been avoiding Willow, Gus, Hunter, and me for months now. And if you don't, then the oath we made will…."
"Will…..what?" Luz asked, her heart beating faster from the suspense.
"……It will kill me. My heart will be forced to stop beating and I'll die if you don't tell me the truth." Amity said, looking Luz in the eyes.
The Human-Titan hybrid gasped at this, shocked greatly from this as she shivered in place.
"No... no no no! Why would you do something like that!?" Luz asked, shaking her head.
"Because I need to know the truth!" Amity said, leaning closer. "Is it because of the dream? is it because of me? is it-"
"It's because of me!" Luz shouted.
"What? " Amity asked, flinching back a bit.Luz, what are you-"
"Everything that happened is because of me. EVERYTHING. Everything happened because I went back in time and helped Philip before he became Belos." Luz said, her hands shaking as she gripped her legs. "I'm... I'm not afraid of you guys... I'm afraid that I will do something that will make you lose trust in me... that I'll lose you all forever."
"Luz….." Amity said, nearly heartbroken by this new. "Luz, we would never-"
"Even after I gave Belos the light glyph that dad Titan was trying to hide?! After Lilith and I helped him get the Collector's disk?! What if something happens and I end up helping an even worse bad guy do something horrible like Belos?!" Luz asked, crying from sorrow and rage as her internal dam finally burst.
"You are not like that!" Amity said, a bit louder so she would listen.
"Yes I am! I'm still the same stupid, trusting, worthless human girl that came to the demon realm by LUCK! Not fate by fate but by blind, dumb luck!" Luz screamed, grabbing her hair.
"And it was dumb luck that made me fall for you!" Amity said.
"So what?! One good thing doesn't outweigh all of the bad things that came along!" Luz shouted at Amity.
"No, but it makes you stronger!" Amity said, grabbing Luz's bones hands, "Luz, there is nothing that will make me hate you. I love you, I want to marry you one day, and have lots of little half Titan children."
Luz looked at the ground before leaning on Amity.
"Promise?" She asked.
"I promise. We'll work on getting you over your fear together." Amity said, cupping Luz's cheek. "Repeat after me, We can fix this together."
Luz smiled, remembering when she said that to her so long ago.
"We can fix this together." She said before they shared a kiss.
Amity was glad she was getting through to Luz… because they had a person that needed to be brought to justice. A person not as powerful but just as vile as Belos was.
In another part of the isles, where all the black market and true criminals were, a hooded figure walked to a stall.
"I need something… that can kill a god." She said, putting her hands on the counter, revealing a ring made from Cat's eye.
