As the light settled down Luna saw herself standing at the gates of Darkrim’s memory. Darkrim, Isdeuh, Insomnia, Eluvietta, Gorgus and Hatite were all standing there. 

Darkrim rushed over to Princess Luna and hugged her. 

The rest smiled politely to her. 

“On behalf of us all here, I wish to thank you, dearest princess”, Isdeuh began, “You have helped us defeat a great threat, but what is even more you thought us all a valuable lesson.”
