[ WP ] Write an ending scene that hints at the enormity of the quest that came before it .

Here lies Danel at my feet, frozen in agony, and his mouth wide with his last scream. There by the wall lies Yuna's body and, half the room over, her head, but no blood, only her gears and cogs and a long metal spine. I clench my teeth in anger at her struggle to sentience, cut short at its peak. Across the room, four hooves dabbing in a pool of fetid water, human arms wrapped around his beloved, Toz smiles in the end, finally at peace with his changing body and with Seneca, the centaur warrior-mare he clings to even now. 
 
 In the middle, the hill-like body of the Last Guardian, worn down by a thousand wounds and killed by my final stab through his mouth and out the back of his throat. As I watch with clenched fists, his body disintegrates into a small pile of fine ash. On top of it rests my sword and beside the sword a crystal ball with fine etchings. 
 
 All of our adventures, our long journey and friendship boiled down to a pile of ash and this -- this trinket. I step around my friend's body and kneel down to pick up my sword. The ball shines in the light, and I consider leaving it. Let the world rot. Let it fall to pieces. I do n't care anymore. 
 
 I sheath my sword. I stand up. I turn around. I walk away. I leave the crystal ball, and I never return. Some other heroes can save the world. I've already lost mine.
