[As each of them falls, they will know: the labyrinth is disappearing. Each of its masters has been cured, and thus everyone will be safe. Whether it be those who were swallowed up by the labyrinth, or those who stood guard within—this time, they've managed to protect the world without having to kill their loved ones.
Eventually, darkness gives way to light; the blackness of their surroundings turns to white, and they'll find that they're no longer alone. They're descending together now, just within reach of each other.
The whole falling thing should probably be alarming, but intuitively, they know that they'll be safe. For now, just enjoy this skyfall? You're all reunited again!]
[And so they descend. Before they reach the bottom, however, a gentle force slows down their fall, so that they land without harm.
As they lie there, the void begins to dissipate. Shadows dance amidst the shattering white, but they'll know that these aren't sinister—they're here to send them back. In the flickering pieces of the vanishing labyrinth, they will each see images.
The Nein, happily partying.
The people Tsuru has managed to help, whether or not his efforts were futile.
The Golden Deer, living out their lives, whether it be wartime or peace.
The people who have come to care for Marie, whether as Marie Amabuki or as Wicked, despite her beliefs that she could never be loved.
Before their surroundings fully disappear, a message displays across their interface.]
REMAINING TIME: IRRELEVANT
The world is an ugly place, but it turns out that there are still things left worth protecting. Even with all your failures, regrets, and fears, no matter how long it takes —

FOR THE PARTICIPANTS: CLAUDE VON RIEGAN, MOLLYMAUK TEALEAF, TSURUMARU KUNINAGA, MARIE AMABUKI: A GOOD END.
In the purpose of Entertainment as relating to the Hotel, this Excursion is now complete. Participants will return to the hotel in a random location in the condition that they are leaving the Excursion, maintaining all injuries. They will not be permitted to bring any weapons back onto the premise: any weapons embedded in the bodies of the Participants will turn to stardust upon arrival. For your participation in this Excursion, the Participants will receive the following rewards:
★ Two Tickets per Participant to be redeemed in the Hotel's Gift Shop. ★ Their memories of the excursion and all injuries*. ★ The clothes upon their backs. ★ Some other trinkets may be kept. Terms and conditions may apply.
[All four of you will find your "trinkets" are the small, antique lockets that you bought at the store! The center stone of each locket is currently glowing a soft blue color.
Each locket contains a photograph of a piece of your close CR or CR from home. it is yours to keep.
Additionally, your characters will know that this necklace allows them to access one power from home, and that the stone will lose its light when the power is used. Please run your power by your mod team so we can approve it once you've chosen one! If you do not have powers, you may speak to the mod team about your options!
Your trinkets also include your M*ku figure. Unfortunately, they do not include the medical aid you got from the hospital, so those won't remain when they return.
*RE: Injuries, you will have all of your Part 1 injuries. As for Part 2, when they exit, they will also have the following:
Claude: He will have mild to moderate burns all over. He'll also find that he has no sense of touch anymore; once he gets some kind of healing, it will gradually return over the next few days. He'll also have multiple stab scars over his heart from when Byleth stabbed him + mercy killed him.
Molly: His eye (whichever one) is sealed shut. Specifically, there is now scarring over it in the shape of a fancy moon, almost like some kind of funky burn mark/tattoo. He'll also have the stab scars from when that bandit impaled him and since he sure drowned + got strangled he might be feeling the effects of those in the immediate aftermath.
Tsuru: He will have a stab wound through his torso where his heart is, from when his master impaled him. His heart itself is fine i.e. the injury will not kill him despite appearances unless he bleeds to death, but in the meantime he does have the bleeding entry/exit wounds. Thanks to his blade having been temporarily shattered, for a day or so he'll also feel a disconnect from his body at times, like it's not his or that he doesn't know how to use it.
Marie: She will find herself semi-paralyzed from the waist down, as though something's wrong with her spine; once she gets some kind of healing, feeling will gradually return over the next few days. She'll probably want to find something to use as a cane or crutch until her legs are fully working again. (For your purposes, unless you actually wanted her walking to be significantly impaired, you can assume that as soon as she gets healing, she'll be able to manage enough to walk around with help.)
Finally, for the remainder of the week, all four will find that when in each other's vicinity, they will have the urge to hold hands.
FINALE
Eventually, darkness gives way to light; the blackness of their surroundings turns to white, and they'll find that they're no longer alone. They're descending together now, just within reach of each other.
The whole falling thing should probably be alarming, but intuitively, they know that they'll be safe. For now, just enjoy this skyfall? You're all reunited again!]

He looks over when he notices that they're together again, and grins a little. ]
Glad to see we all made it.
[ And because this is the trend of this CYOA, he will reach out to grab one of their hands. ]
no subject
Didn’t get impaled this time, so we’re calling it a win.
no subject
I believe we are all in need of a nap!
no subject
That said don't utter word while she reaches out to grab both Claude and Tsuru by the hand so now they're falling in a gay lil circle. ]
...
This group is such a fucking disaster. [ said lovingly /srs ]
