The three have arrived at the highest walls of Calamity, and they waited at the front. Archers aimed and waited for commence. Salvator readied a Fire Arrow in case they attacked. Arthas held the shield out over himself. There was a dead silence, as arrows were held at the ready. Not one move was made, but until the bells rang, the gates suddenly rose, and the three fighters slowly trespass. Villagers, workers, and knights stood in a massive crowd stands aside them in two groups. A thin line was made for the three. Neither of them spoke or made action. Salvator lowered his bow and places the arrow back in the pack. The doctor just walked aside the horse, as Arthas rode on it.

They soon reach a massive roadway hill leading to another massive bridge, but...it was wider, enough to fit a cavalry charge. The horse just kept on trotting to the other end of the bridge, where they finally enter the Castle of Calamity. Then everyone just continuously works, walks around, and guards continue their duty as protectors of the castle. Salvator just kept his eye around the horse and Arthas, in case of any attacks.

The horse was taken to a farmhouse, where the horse is now being taken by caretakers of military horses. The two started walking to the very top tower, where they will soon meet King Thermopolis, the real King since the birth of Sephiroth. The staircases were carpeted in Royal Yellow, and Red. Torches had the regular colors of flame. The portraits' frames were blanketed with roses and stems with thorns. The guards carried Old Sephirothian Halberds, spears, and crossbows, and bows. Even the Old Lordaeron Sword. Salvator just looked at their weaponry and shields. They definitely need to change their weapons. It's a wonder how Sephiroth lost the Great War.

"So, this is the farthest land of Sephiroth, yes?" Salvator asks. The prince turns to him, "This is indeed the final kingdom of Sephiroth, the walls had never fallen, they were never penetrated, never pummeled, Calamity has the largest forces since Lordaeron's army during the Great War. It's like the Trojan War, but these walls are 10 times the height and 4 times the width. Calamity is the strongest kingdom, but was never involved in the war. The Great War was my father's war." Salvator looks around more, "I can see that. But are the walls thick enough? Blackbird can still penetrate them." Arthas turns to him again. "Blackbird is not the enemy we are facing. It is a God we must challenge. Hades is the prior enemy to the Brotherhood. He made this world dark for a thousand years, now it is time we brighten it with a stab to his heart. My father is dead, and the deal should have broken after the war. He did not end the deal, so we both will end it." Salvator nodded. "Together till death."

The two walked into a large room with massive pillars. A massive royal red carpet was under their feet. They walk slowly and approach the King of Calamity. Lord Thermopolis. The two men kneel down to him. The King looks down from his throne to the two men. "Prince Arthas. I have longed for your arrival. I assure your struggle for survival and victory will be well rewarded. Do you seek the Hidden Scroll of Oberusel's Temple?" Arthas stood up, and took out the scroll from his satchel and walked to the King. He handed the scroll over to the King and he opened the scroll, reading what was written in the paper. Then he closes it and places it on a golden tray. "Prince Arthas Lordaerius, son of the late and deceased Lord Brutius Lordaerius, you have succeeded in the final quest for the masterpiece to end the Curse of the Reign of Darkness. You will be promoted to a King of Lordaeron. But first..." He snaps his fingers, and the doors open from behind. A beautiful anthro white wolf in a bright blue and white dress walked to him slowly, smiling with those sapphire eyes, gleaming from the torches. She stopped at Arthas' armored boots, and spoke, "You are the Prince of Lordaeron, son of the deceased King of the Dark Reign. Now you are a King of the Brotherhood Legacy, for I am your founded Princess, and your wise Queen. Take me, Prince, and you will suffice on your wildest dreams."

Arthas grinned and took her hands. He turns to the King, "You are a generous, gold-hearted, and faithful King, my Lord. This reward is exactly as wished." He walks with his left hand in the wolf's right hand. "As for you, Plague Doctor..."Salvator looked up to the king,"....as for assisting the Prince on his quest to give the Hidden Scroll....for the Death of Vonkick van Braiden, you will be achieved with a more rewarded and high-ranked Doctor." Salvator turns around and saw an anthro crow with a long white beak, red eyes, armored talons, and breasts fitting out of the coat. "You will be forever assigned to the Plague Mistress." Salvator stood up and bowed to the king, "Thank thou, my Lord. This is a generous gift I shall never forget. Thou art thee wise King of all kings." He turns and takes her hand and walks away with her.

The following night, the King has given the announcement that the guests are the heroes of Lordaeron and Shi Tol Shelf. The stories of the Lordaeron Knight's Defeat, the Labyrinth Hydra's fall, Nostalgia's death, and the successful fight against the Three Beasts of Ivory Line, the Host, and the Gatekeeper of the Castle Ruins, have been told by the two rewarded knights of Sephiroth, and soon the stories have spread all across the Kingdom. Arthas and Salvator are now the symbols of Freedom, Brotherhood, and Heroic Motivation.

Salvator and Arthas have safely arrived at the Kingdom of Calamity, ruled by King Thermopolis, and they have a safe celebration due to the stories of a young prince fighting off the strongest of foes in Sephiroth.
