*An Epilogue of [[The Boy Scout Boys Campaign]].* --- ## Part 1 A small bird's whistle is heard throughout the tall trees in [[The Constal Forest]], small rustling can be heard in the leaves. Down in the gap between the gargantuan trees, a disheveled [[Thrumbolg, The First Lord|King Thrumbolg, The First Lord]] is limping as fast as his body will carry him. He holds his left arm as blood creates a small creek as it trails from his fingertips. Another small bird whistle is heard and King Thrumbolg's eyes start to dart wildly among the trees looking for any sign of movement. He grabs a nearby boulder and hurls it towards where he last heard a sound and a quick blur of movement is seen for only a millisecond as something dodges out of the way. King Thrumbolg looks forward again and stops. A small [[Eladrin]] stands in the middle of this path, an oaken arm holding a finely crafted bow. The eladrin looks like an older boy, but his face shows pain and anger, but more controlled when his younger self wouldn't have been. King Thrumbolg lets out a war cry and slams his fist down onto the boy, or where he was standing previously. King Thrumbolg looks up but he's too late. [[Wyrran]] the [[Cortex]] of [[The Suberin Guard]] already has his bow drawn. The sun is blinding King Thrumbolg's already poor eye sight, but for a moment the sun is blocked out. Unfortunately for him, by a large wingspan, red eyes can be seen above Wyrran and as Thrumbolg's vision focuses he sees him, [[Yuhguna Dyeh]], the [[Ranger]] who helped kill [[Orzith Ilix, The Thought Collector|the god of time]], the hunter in the dark, [[Mallekai's Titanic Greatbow|his bow]] drawn, infernal fire coursing through the bowstring, a [[Giant]] slaying barbed arrow on the end facing down its foe. And as if sharing one mind, Wyrran and Yuh both release their arrows. Yuh's hits in the heart first, the infernal fire burning into the skin of the giant warlord. Wyrran's arrow hits next, cutting into Yuh's arrow and a magical force emanates from the arrow shoving both through the giants heart and out his back. King Thrumbolg's eyes roll into the back of his head, he slumps forward and slams into the dirt shaking the earth beneath him. Yuh and Wyrran land on the now deceased giant's back, and a simple gesture of a nod and fist bump is all that is exchanged before they jump back into the trees back towards the starlight city of [[Astrazalian, The City of Starlight|Astrazalian]]. ## Part 2 As a lute trills on up in the massive tree supporting [[The Firefly Lantern]], a few locals are gathered around a fire pit enjoying some [[Sete Vinto Vintage|wine]] from the vineyards of [[Sete Vinto]], now accessible once again due to the return of [[Keystone of Astrazalian|the keystone]]. "I literally had their document in today. Legally it's official, whether they've done a ceremony or not." Exclaims [[Follin]], a new friend to [[Valdove]], the rogue [[Bard]] and new [[Paralegal]] in the city of Astrazalian. "Well when I see a ring I'll believe it." Says [[Gravi]], as she swaps from standing to sitting closer to the fire. There's a long pause as everyone gazes into the embers. "Feels a bit lonely without all of them here again..." Says [[Mina]] as she hugs her knees. "Who?" Gravi responds. "You know who, especially you know who Gravi: [[The Boy Scout Boys]]. I just feel like things were a bit more exciting. I liked them, I think they all liked us. I miss seeing the stars all the way in space. I miss seeing [[Kerrigan]]'s smile when she worked with [[The Cinder Isles Pyre Shard|The Pyre Shard]]." Says Mina. "We still have lots of years ahead of us Mina," [[Mia Corvere]] steps forward into the light of the fire and takes a seat next to Mina giving her a small hug. She pulls out another bottle of wine from her bag and tops off everyone's drinks. "I sure as hell know I'll need the time to make it up to them." Mia takes a second. "They just killed a [[Orzith Ilix, The Thought Collector|god of time]], they just saved [[Astrazalian, The City of Starlight|Astrazalian]], [[Krashaprovos]]... the world really. They deserve a break and to pursue their own goals and ambitions." Mia takes a sip of wine, looks up at the stars, and then closes her eyes, listening to the gentle melody from the rogue bard's lute up in the trees. And Mia thinks to herself: *Thank you for saving me and my home.* ---
