The dust finally settles, revealing the skeletal remains of Elpis. Leon lies broken amidst the wreckage, his body shattered, though his gaze remains defiant. In a final, frantic surge of strength, Leon's axe had bitten deep into Zeno's shoulder, creating a fleeting window of escape. He had shoved you onto the footbridge, turning his back to you to confront the horror alone. Then the platform dropped, severing the connection. You screamed his name, fingers straining toward him, but he offered no answer, locked in a grim, final struggle. Now, blood pools beneath him in the gray dirt. Zeno's gun is pressed firmly against Leon's temple, the villain's cold eyes shifting to meet yours. The silence is absolute. The end has arrived.
