Gray was especially fond of his son, whom he named after his friend. After declining knighthoods in the One Kingdom, the two married and lived out quiet lives. As he was heard to say, “Pick the guy with the big heart, not the pretty face.”ĭevastated by Tobin’s death, Gray was nearly lost to the demon drink until Clair convinced him to clean up. He applied himself equally to winning Clair’s heart, and beat Tobin out in the end. The talkative, playful Tobin of old, however, was gone forever.Īs a member of the One Kingdom’s Brotherhood of Knights, Gray worked diligently at restoring the continent. At King Alm’s suggestion, he joined the One Kingdom’s Brotherhood of Knights. Unable to move past Gray’s death, Tobin abruptly vanished before reappearing just as suddenly several years later. The king, in turn, placed a great deal of trust in Tobin, eventually granting him both a title and his own castle. The boy was said to have a tremendous gift for magic.Īs one of the most scrupulous knights in the One Kingdom’s Brotherhood, Tobin spent his life serving his friend King Alm. Decades later, a young man claiming to be Kliff’s son arrived in Valentia to serve the king. With the war over, Kliff bid Alm farewell and vanished-with some speculating that he left for a new continent. His calm, intellectual mien won him many friends, and he never longed for companionship throughout the rest of his days. Lukas joined the One Kingdom’s Brotherhood of Knights, and after retiring, founded a school where he devoted himself to his students’ education. Despite being adored by a congregation numbering in the tens of thousands, his friends attest that he retained his playful, lighthearted nature all his life. Despite his formal standing and title, the king and queen continued to love him like a grandfather.Īfter spearheading the unification of the Mila and Duma Faithful, Nomah became the new sect’s high priest. Believed by the people to be a reincarnation of Mila, she was universally loved for her work fostering peace within the nascent kingdom.Īs the One Kingdom’s new chancellor-and right-hand man to King Alm I-good Sir Mycen worked tirelessly toward the kingdom’s restoration. In marrying Alm, Celica became the first queen of the One Kingdom of Valentia, and aided her king with wisdom and compassion. He would be remembered fondly by later generations as Saint-King Alm I, who cast off the gods’ oppressive yoke and founded a dynasty that would last a thousand years. For whatever madness lay in the hearts of gods… a darkness deeper still beats wild in the hearts of man… Character EndingsĪs first king of the One Kingdom of Valentia, Alm spent his life restoring the continent to glory. Only one truth is clear: War will come again, when man grows proud and slothful once more, and its flames will devour one and all, raging until the very earth itself lies scorched and bare of life. Was it inexorable fate that saw this conflict erupt? No man or woman alive can say. After countless sacrifices, at last, a new peace dawned in Valentia. Narrator: And so the long war drew to a close. (Image of the masses welcoming Alm and Celica) I think Mila and Duma gave us one last gift… The strength to trust in our own abilities. I know we can do it.Īlm: We can…and we will. All of us-together.Ĭelica: That sounds lovely, Alm. We’ll forge a land where we can do just that. Who can say what Valentia will look like once they’ve matured? Will man’s endeavors continue without the grace and strength of the gods?Īlm: They won’t continue on their own. They grow for hundreds, even thousands of years. Do you know of them, Alm? They say that where divine dragons sleep, sacred trees take root and grow.Ĭelica: In time, yes. They’ll look down over this new Valentia forever from their mountaintop graves. But they’re at peace now, you know? Asleep.
They’d been fighting for centuries, right? Seems like a lost cause to me.Ĭelica: Alm! That’s a terrible thing to say!Īlm: Ah, sorry! I didn’t mean any disrespect. If we’d been given the opportunity to learn more about each other, maybe things would’ve turned out differently for us.Ĭelica: Perhaps it was the same for Mila and Duma.Īlm: Hmm… I wonder. If I have any regrets, it’s that.Īlm: I know what you mean… Neither of us got the chance to stand by our fathers. Perhaps if I’d been there with him, I might have helped him change. And you’re going to be its first ruler.Ĭelica: Please don’t misunderstand. None of it feels real.Ĭelica: …It isn’t my father’s throne. I’m just still wrapping my head around sitting on your father’s throne. Celica: You aren’t going to be late to your own coronation, are you?Īlm: No.
