[Final Day] Endgame

And just as suddenly as everything had began, the demons are gone—all of them. Not a single crow feather remains. As if being sucked backwards out of a vacuum, sound and light flood into the room and the hallway, crashing down on you. You are back in the real world, with noise and physics and sunlight streaming in through the window.

You are also left with two bereft Bellcourt children, the older of which is suddenly doubling over in his wheelchair and shouting in anguish.

Ah—at least it wasn't anything . . . too severe.

That's what I figured. I was running out of ideas.

...I guess I get you a bit better now?

It's—desperation, yes.

Yeah.

When there's—something you need to do, but you're powerless. I—[shakes his head]—I don't think you made the wrong choice.

I didn't make the right one either. But it was a choice.

It—was one of the only choices we had, in that situation.

... wasn't much of one. I was trying to drive it towards a deal instead, but it wasn't gonna.

[puts a hand overs his eye, self-consciously.]

Still—you helped.

I was desperate, end of story.

That doesn't mean you didn't help.

[makes a face at, but... accepts.]

So—thank you.

... it's alright.

Ah—r-right.
