I had a dream. Or maybe it was a nightmare—because in that dream, I was happy.196Please respect copyright.PENANAzNgb7sAHIU
We were at an amusement park, watching our daughter laugh on the carousel. Every time she passed, we waved, our own laughter mixing with hers. We ate popcorn, cotton candy, ice cream… It was a perfect day.196Please respect copyright.PENANADtmWVIF4Kf
Then I woke up.196Please respect copyright.PENANA0YW1B5Gvcb
Still on this battlefield, littered with the corpses of the world’s strongest heroes. Smoke and ash choked the sky, blocking out the sun. The world was ending.
For seven years, we’ve fought the monsters that poured through the dimensional rift. But nothing—not the titans, not the demons, not the gods—compares to the thing hovering above me now.196Please respect copyright.PENANAoZW9OuBMlJ
Thank God it was just a dream.196Please respect copyright.PENANAgV9BUtt5QF
Thank God they left seven years ago.196Please respect copyright.PENANAjONaGpKy3a
Thank God they’ll never see this.196Please respect copyright.PENANAa0bDmyik6u
I’m glad… glad that, at this moment, I have nothing left to lose. How much more tragic would it be to stand here, powerless, trying to protect something—someone?196Please respect copyright.PENANArasIk2sUxB
Blood drips from what’s left of my arm. My bones grind against each other with every movement. Still, I will lift my sword one last time.196Please respect copyright.PENANADpIf9FjyuO
"Come on, dragon! I’m still standing!"196Please respect copyright.PENANAzYy0ejB4g1
I’m glad you guys never had to exist in the same world as this monster.196Please respect copyright.PENANAriOo8cFmSb
And as the beast roars and the final battle begins, I feel no fear.196Please respect copyright.PENANAfqbSW1wMOw
Only peace.196Please respect copyright.PENANAKGQDqfh0AL
I will see them soon, in a place this thing will never reach.196Please respect copyright.PENANAZirslpthle
For me, this is a happy ending.196Please respect copyright.PENANAzDhn2o3wBl
