The battlefield is a blur of chaos. A stray spell, meant for the villain, careens toward Lisa. In a desperate surge, the villain intercepts the blast, his chest pierced by magical force. He falls, gasping, expecting Lisa's aid. Instead, she rushes into Daniel's arms, her back turned to his dying form. Daniel stands frozen in shock, holding her tightly. Sydney approaches the villain slowly, her face a mask of conflicted pity, hesitant to deliver the final blow or offer salvation.
