«Gravelyn uses a sword with Noxus' head on it to disintegrate Vordred.»

Gravelyn: How fitting… I just destroyed you with a weapon made from your Master.

Noxus Sword: NO FAIR!!!!

Hero: Gravelyn!

Gravelyn: Greetings Hero. Congratulations on defeating Vordred and his army.
Gravelyn: …is this Artix?

Hero: You guys haven't met?

Artix: No… I have not had the pleasure of meeting the Empress of the Shadowscythe.

Gravelyn: Hmmm. I expected you would be… I'm not sure… taller… with a deeper voice.

Artix: I get that a lot.

Gravelyn: Hero, is it true that he is the Champion of Darkness?

Hero: Yes…

Gravelyn: Very well. Artix, by order of the Shadowscythe Empire you shall become MY champion and lead my undead army.

Artix: WHAT!?!?!

Hero: WHAT!?!?!

Gravelyn: If you refuse this order I will be forced to slay you and claim the title of Champion of Darkness as my own.

«The Hero pulls Artix aside to whisper in his ear.»

Hero: Are there any girls in this game that don't want to kill you, Artix?

Gravelyn: Enough! Do you accept?

Hero: You know, Paladin armor in black with some skulls would be pretty awesome looking.

Artix: Gravelyn, I cannot accept.
Artix: I am an honorable Paladin of King Alteon's kingdom… sworn to battle the evil undead.

Gravelyn: Hahahaha! The Champion of Darkness… a Paladin? You are no Paladin.

Artix: Being a Paladin is more than simply wielding Light magic… it is a way of life.

Gravelyn: Very well then. When the truce between Good and Evil has ended, I will finish what my father, Sepulchure, started.
Gravelyn: You best change your mind before then.

Noxus Sword: HAHAHA! I like you, you still have the Shadow Amulet after all, Gravelyn.
Noxus Sword: See you soon… ShadowPaladin! MWAHAHAHAHA!

Gravelyn: As for you hero… I want you to have this.

Noxus Sword: WHAT!? ME?????? NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!

«Gravelyn hands the Hero the Noxus Sword and leaves.»

Artix: !!!

Hero: !!!

«Vayle disintegrates Vordred and protects Artix and the Hero with a shield.»

Artix: Vayle!

Hero: Vayle!

Vayle: Sorry I'm late.
Vayle: Now that Vordred is gone… it is time to settle this, Artix.

«Hero whispers in Artix's ear»

Hero: … Are there any cute girls left in this game that DO NOT want to kill you, Artix?

Vayle: For what you did to my brother… prepare to die!

Artix: For the record, your brother was a giant evil undead abomination at the time!

Vayle: You broke the Soul Shard that stored his spirit orb… I could have found a way to bring him back!

Artix: Very well, Vayle. I will not fight you…

Hero: Wha….?

Artix: But there is someone you should hear from first.

«A spirit orb appears.»

Vayle: ?

Spirit Orb: Hello, Sister.

Vayle: My… my brother… Edward? How can this be possible?!

Spirit Orb: I do not have much time left…
Spirit Orb: But I want you to know… what you did was wrong.

Vayle: But… I miss you… so much. I could have brought you back!

Spirit Orb: No… sister. We both know that it was never possible.

Vayle: But we could've tried! I wouldn't have stopped trying!

Spirit Orb: I know…
Spirit Orb: That's why I wanted to come… and say goodbye.

Vayle: ….

Spirit Orb: Hero. Artix. It was good fighting alongside you both. Thank you for allowing me to redeem myself.

Artix: You are welcome…

Hero: You are welcome…

Spirit Orb: Goodbye….

«The Spirit Orb disappears.»

Vayle: … goodbye, Brother.

Artix: Vayle…

Vayle: THIS CHANGES NOTHING!

Artix: !?

Hero: !?

Vayle: I dedicated my life to Necromancy to bring him back… YOU RUINED EVERYTHING!
Vayle: The next time we meet… we are mortal enemies.

«Vayle leaves»

Artix: !!!

Hero: !!!

«Vordred raises his sword to attack Artix and the Hero, but Zorbak jumps from the sky and lands on him, defeating him.»

Zorbak: Meh… Oh whoops. Sorry Vordred!

Artix: Zorbak!

Hero: Zorbak!

Zorbak: Hi guys! Hey… this is pretty comfy. Nice, firm. A good fit.
Zorbak: I could make a throne out of this!

Hero: I thought you already had a skull throne.

Artix: Yeah, what about Drakonann's helmet?

Zorbak: Meh, I'm starting a collection.

«Zorbak laughs»

Zorbak: Mehehehe. I couldn't but help overhearing… You're the Champion of Darkness, hunh?
Zorbak: You know what would be even cooler than that?

«Zorbak raises two glowing-red daggers.»

Zorbak: If *I* were the Champion of Darkness!

Hero: This raises an interesting question.
Hero: If you're the Champion of Darkness, Artix… who are all the other elemental Champions?

Zorbak: Well, we already know that Drakath is the Champion of Chaos.

Hero: And… More importantly, who is the Champion of Light?

Artix: I would imagine someone SUPER-Good! Maybe King Alteon?

Zorbak: Meh, what about that runt Twilly?

Hero: No… if Artix is Darkness, then I have a hunch about who Light is…

Zorbak: !!!

Artix: !!!

«Vordred raises his sword to attack Artix and the Hero, but Daimyo jumps from the sky and lands on him, defeating him.»

Artix: Good boy, Daimyo!

Hero: Who would have thought learning how to fetch would be so handy!

Daimyo: Arf!

Hero: So… Artix, what are you going to do now?

Artix: I am not sure… I have so many unanswered questions.
Artix: Why did everyone keep this secret from me? What exactly… am I?

«The Hero holds out the Shadowscythe Amulet.»

Hero: Well, you should hold onto this, then…

Artix: Would you do me a favor, and hold onto that Amulet?

Hero: Me? But why?

Artix: Because you are the person I trust most in this world.
Artix: I do not know what will happen in the future… but I believe in you and know you will do what is right.

Hero: Alright, then. I'll keep the Shadow Amulet safe.
Hero: What about your axe, the Blinding Light of Destiny?

Artix: All that remains is this handle… I guess we will have to forge a new one.
Aritx: What an adventure we have been though…

Hero: And we finally got an ending that made EVERYONE happy!

Daimyo: Arf?

Hero: This was the super happy ending… right?

«Scene fades»

Sally: Why…?

«Scene: Sally, holding her pink stuffed bear, stands outside a house with a skull on it.»

Sally: … I'm so alone.
Sally: WHY!? …why do I keep ending up alone?
Sally: I lose all the friends I make… (literally)
Sally: I HATE BEING ALONE!!!!!!

«Sally cries. Drakath flies by and lands next to her.»

Sally: What the…
Sally: You're Drakath, right?
Sally: Hmph, what are you gonna do? Make me into one of your Chaos Lords or something?

Drakath: No.

«Drakath tosses Vordred's skull on the ground next to Sally.»

Sally: What's this?

«Sally picks up the skull.»

Sally: Ooooooh…..

«Drakath flies away.»

Sally: YAY!!!! This is the BEST DAY EVARRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

«Sally hugs Vordred's skull.»

Sally: Vordred… I'm gonna remake you… bigger… stronger….
Sally: Now, to do this, we need to reopen the full, original NECROPOLIS!!!!!

«Sally laughs.»

Sally: MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
