Heroes reach the Master's Inner Lair, where he waits with Alrethus and his greatest champions. The Master is destroyed by Sir Casimir, at the cost of his own life. Heroes flee as his lair collapses. Bravery is slain, but his body later recovered and raised. Alrethus believed to have escaped.
With the Master destroyed, his Juggernauts go mad and his armies are defeated and scattered.
The rest of the Alphatian Navy goes home.
Thyatis temporarily occupies south-east Alasiya, but soon cedes it to Karameikos.
Grand Duke Stefan (F16) becomes King of Karameikos-Alasiya.
William becomes the Duke-Sultan of Alasiya. His wise teachings on the Dream of the Desert Garden are widely admired, and he is soon regarded as a prophet by the Preceptor faction. The Kin Faction are blamed for the Master (who claimed blood kinship with Al-Kalim) and his secret Thanatic cult, and rigorously persecuted by the Preceptors. William rebuilds the Sultan's Palace more glorious than ever.
Roseanna has an audience with Emperor Thincol, presents him with the Vorpal Sword, and becomes acknowledged heir to the Duchy of Kerandas.
Cael marries Solga the Valkyrie, William's cousin, and opens a successful pub in Castellan. He charges people to sit on the Master's white silk cushion.
Princess Hope Karameikos is a favourite of Alphatia's Empress Eriadna the Wise at the Imperial Court of Sundsvall. She seems to be cultivating the young lady for future greatness.
Back in Karameikos, M11 1021 the town of Luln was sacked by a horde of well-organised orcs led by a powerful orc wizard. Sascia of Luln survived the slaughter and claims the orc wizard was really Bargle in disguise.
And now the years of peace begin...
(3 years to spring 1025 AC)
