The two main characters share their last words together
And after the war had ended, after the damage was done, after the hero got his praise and after the passerbys looked at the villians with a look of disgust as if they were better, the hero slid into the darkness to take his last breath. But found the villian, the person who caused this, taking his own.

"What are you doing here"

"I take my last stance here, as do you"

"And you would take your last breath with that of a villian?"

"Why did you become a villian?"

"Become? I was not given a choice, my role, my destiny, MY FATE!!! Was sealed the day you risked your life to save me...."

And for the first time in many years, the hero felt sorrow for a villian and his life flashed before his eyes.
"Asmer?"

"You do not deserve to know my name as I have long forgotten yours,.........Demetrius"
And the two breathed their last breath, knowing that neither was the blame for their demise.
