I'm very late but I'm all for giving VOICES a chance at true humanity if possible. To Chuck and Roro: I'm so glad that through all of this you found each other and I can only wish the two of you all the best for the future! To Yang: I'm so happy that you get to live your life and actually be creative again but try not to trap yourself with your art. You have lifelong friends from this so make the most of it with them too!

PK Persona

Almost forgot Greg Argo: what happened to the all of the remaining drones, including Vox. Are they all locked up with prisoner 9 in hopefully a everlasting sex romp?

Quietbear

To Monilius: YOU NERDY DEMONIC DICK!! How could you do what you did!?! If it wasn't for everyone that world and (most likely) you could have been destroyed. But I suppose when you're facing off against a cosmic terror as old as Time and warped by insatiable lust, you do things in order to survive, but what you did was still 40% cowardly and 80% dickish. Anyway this looks like it will be our last time with everyone, all in all, some of us believe you still have the potential to be a good person...er demon like keth and legion. You seem to be knowledgeable of nerd culture, maybe you can try to find some equally devoted fans, maybe attend some cons, or even contribute to some fanfics. it could lead to possible friendships. hopefully you'll try and put some effort into being a better person however you can....or at least not be so much a ass to others. Your call.

Quietbear

To Keth and the Void: Were the portals healed? What will happen to the vessels?

Quazy Danny

Keth, I'm really happy to see you're fine and good! You're the custest and for sure the best suited to be a duke after your kindness. Never forget we fully support you. Send everyone our love and hopes that everything will be fine (after what we saw, specially for Red). Thank the Fingers and the Eyes for all their current effort (and you of course). As for me I would like to have the Voices again in me. I will cherish them and hope they will reform differently this time. They'll feel what they longed so much, for so long. They'll be loved! And I hope they'll learn how to love while being loved and maybe one day they'll be as kind as you are. Love you Keth, and wish every brother of the night and every entity all the best (love them as well)

RPL

Keth: You all have suffered enough and have enough to deal with getting your lives truly back and without influence. We'll take the Voices in. We will be more than enough to care for them. Greg Argo... Please look after them... and they will do the same for you.

Drake Arlin

[So I got a lot of thoughts and I’m just gonna spitball them all here, with no priority of one over the others. I seriously don’t know how you managed this whole thing BC but it’s been a blast.] RED: “REEEDD MOTHERFUCKEEERRRR! It’s been like a week and you already lost an arm? Ha ha what the hell, man?” DR. GOUNDEN: “Well, it seems like things are going pretty good for you guys. Say, how’s it feel like to be walking on your own two feet again?” SYDAN: “I should say that I didn’t too highly of you before, but the way you’ve been using The Heart’s power here is making me think I’ve judged you too harshly. Congratulations, it’s impressive to see you able to do so much good with this gift and, if I may, ahem, “SPREAD THE LOVE, HURR HURR HURR!” [Poor Keth’s gonna get battered with so many messages.]

Synclonic

((Yeah I know this is a little too meta, but the others covered everything I wanted to say so this was the only idea I had))

Rick

No, we already asked him to like immediately after he joined Gastro.

Lee Evergreen

Hey Keth, it’s me, the one that yelled at you about respect. I’m sorry If I came across overly aggressive in such a critical moment, but I stand by what I said. I’m glad you took the concept to heart and you’re sharing it with your people. Now If you let me get in contact with the voices. I might have an idea… Voice, you can hear us, right? He said you could. Instead of being split among us, how about you officially join us as a patron? We only come together as a collective when we interact with this world, so you will still be yourself if you want. However, we must ask the one we give patronage to, BLAZINGCHEEKS, to do this. He is the one that facilitates our collective. If he allows you to join, would you be willing to give up your identity and powers as the VOICES THAT COMMAND to become a humble patron? I can’t guarantee what will happen, but you’ll at least be able to distance yourself from the world you despise so much.

Rick

Is the arms capable of destroying abstract things like concepts and ideas? Maybe personalities?

TheBoldCharr

Harvey: Hey, I don't think you really need us at this point. Just we're proud that you're changing, growing, becoming more okay with who you are. It's not a journey that happens overnight -- take care of yourself, but take care of those two idealists more. They need someone like you, I think.

BillBehr

This was a fantastic creation. Thank you for creating and sharing.

Doomtrooper

A big Thank You! and a Hearts Out to all the guys and how we've loved our time with them. Over the course of this big event we've come to really enjoy each and everyone of them and I'm so happy they all trusted us enough that we were able to reach the end safely with them as we promised. I'm terribly sad for the Voices, not once did I ever give up on them, I want them to still be happy and wish they could come around but with the virus our time to talk was cut dreadfully short. We know that they haven't been redeemed, if they reform in that world they will inevitably try to break out again even if it means at the cost of everything. Can we talk to them? What does it mean to make them real? And on a last note, gosh Keth you always swoon us over looking as handsome as ever in a suit!

Yoked Coder

Wait, it's over already? Not gonna lie, I was expecting a bit more. You sure fingers/eyes isn't up to anything shady? Some grand conspiracy that will drag this whole affair on for another few years? No? Guess there's not much more to say. You know how it goes, "we're here for a good time not for a long time." Send the voices over, I'm sure we can take it.

move along nothing to see here

If you do make a body with no vocal cords, please see about installing a thought to computer text device much like you have rigged one up for our voices today. If you do manage to pull that off, there's probably a ton of baseline humans who'd be interested in buying a brain computer interface like that. Thanks!

Warren (Stephen) Rose

Gastro: Paging Gastro! Apologies for our sudden disappearance a week ago, the Screen has a habit of closing in inopportune moments. This is Lorekeeper speaking, your favorite opossum needed to check up on ya one final time before we part our farewells to this world. Can't speak for ALL The Patrons but we're truly sorry for your loss. ------------------------------ Lucas: Fucking phenomenal, Lucas! *roaring applause* Not only you'd synthesized a cure of a otherworldly contagion within hours but you've commence changes that will monumentally improve society for both the supernatural and humankind! Proud doesn't even describe how we're feeling. The World will remember your legacy! One small favor, do speak with Greg about improvements to The Cure. Might led to a Vaccine thus eliminating concerns of reinfection. If you need a vector to easily distribute The Vaccine, Mosquitoes will make short work of the Z-Virus just be sure to have many contingencies in place. ------------------------------ Keth/VOID: Our Beloved, you've grown exponentially since our fated encounter. Our hearts laments over the state of affairs by which our lingering presence would involuntarily endanger you and the world once more.

Fe5ter

Guessing Red's waiting out all the aftermath to his powers. I'm genuinely surprised it all worked out okay. Thanks for the journey, cheeks. It was interesting

Newt

To Keth: Thank you, for this chance at a goodbye, as well as letting us see what happened to you all. To answer your question, about letting the voice come back to the screen: NO, PLEASE. If things return to how they were, if we're given the power to control people on a whim when we're summoned, then this mess will just start all over again. More pain, more loss, more madness. When we're summoned, if someone opens the door again, it might not be US. It could be a new set of patrons, but with the power of the VOICE. We weren't the ones who ruined Pepi's home all those years ago, as Pepi said the last patrons were bloodthirsty and murderous, so who knows what the next set will do? This is a risk too great, please, don't let us back in. Keep. The Door. SHUT. By any means necessary. But... on a lighter note, I'm proud of you, Keth. You're becoming your own person, you stand up for yourself, even now. You've grown! (mostly metaphorically, but still!) It warms our hearts to see you're safe, and I think we should keep it that way. Maybe the VOICE can be helped in a different way, but not the old way, not with us.

Adam Even

Also, bye, Keth. I'll miss you all... take care.

I think we should leave it up to them.

Dark627

What happened to the Vox body left down there?

Muku

I think we should give Truthsayer what he wants, put him in a fuckable chubby human vessel that doesn’t age nor die so that it never leaves and stay trapped in. It’ll be his second chance and punishment. And remove his vocal cords just to be sure so he don’t use his powers ever again. I miss my Minotaur body if I still had it, all the naughty things I’d do to you but mostly......I just want to hug you. And I’ll miss you.

Ripraf

Gods do I hate farewells, but I do agree, it would be best if the VOICES were left with us. I am curious if Monilius made it out alright, though, considering he was at the heart of that explosion.

Shori_D

I know I posted something already but I just wanted to add one thing since nobody asked this yet. So what happened to Monillus after the end of this?

Kageichi

Although I wish the Voices would be able to find that he is indeed real, I would gladly take a part of him with me if he cannot find a place in the world he felt so trapped in. The truthsayer has won a place in my heart, as you all have. And I assure you that he will live on within.

Keth, remember me? I tried to kill you. No hard feelings right, love? You look great in a suit. Its beautiful how all our monster friends have settled into such mundane lives now. No grand ambitions. Just living to perpetuate themselves and enjoy the mild yet sweet fruits of normalcy and moderation. What is Roro? An accountant now? Ha. Monsters pretending to be humans in a society where humans pretend they aren’t monsters. But I’m more interested in you Keth. How long do you think it will take?? Before you corrupt that is. You’ve got eternity. You’re the most powerful being on the planet. Eventually you’re going to get tired of playing ‘Monster Hotel’ and shape the world in your vision. I’ll be with you in spirit when you’re ready to take that happiness for yourself. My big strong, handsome demon you.

Retronicus

Lookit me BABY! So happy for em. Everyone seems good minus uh Red WHAT HAPPENED Maybe all that bad luck and karma he mentioned? Happy it all worked out though. I'm curious what happened to the Vox body we wanted to emulate a personality into it and all. But if Greg is back I suppose he's just gone or something.

Yang Zhao: Thanks for creating art! Please consider teaming up with a programmer as you probably have some stories you can tell through the medium of video games. Am also curious about your life in SF and what happened to Red. I know from the first time we saw him he was worried about his magic in the long run... Our condolences if anything particularly odd happened and our support in general. Also as this is a text, please have some heart and smiley emojis: :) (Keth, please insert your choice of emojis here. Thanks and hugs!)

Warren (Stephen) Rose

Chuck and Roro: You guys look great! Glad you are happy. We got some past visions just now. The plant bodies for the ghosts are cool and effective and just what you needed to kick off a great start to your new lives. Thanks for being successful. Also, that was a very hot unicorn. Far as the local zorc virus nature outbreak goes, definitely seek help from experts. If you feel like some recreational research, there are a bunch of computer games out there dealing with sex viruses - both the general possessing everything kind you're facing and small subsets like humans being turned into brainwashed werewolves. Have fun and stay safe!

Warren (Stephen) Rose

(Rip Monilius lol that Piggy got away for now. And Roro & Chuck Got their happy ending so I'll leave them alone) To Yang:We Are Back!!!! Temporary Tho Just saying our farewell's. I Guess us playing match maker with you and Red didn't turn out so great huh? To Gastro:Gastro My Alpha, my Pack leader! We've been with you from the very beginning and now this is where we Part Way's although not forever But for now this is goodbye. Thank you For going on this Adventure with Us And I hope you Find You're Smile again! To Sydan:Brother of the Night! I see you Gain your muscles back! You must have been really hitting the Gym!

Unrelated note; i literally just caught up to the public release today, became a patron because of it. Glad i did! greate series!

Roselight Ivy

The VOICE can still change. The one certainty in this world is change. I think though, he will need help. If you send him back to our side , this cycle will just begin again. You're all together again. You can help each other. The VOICE needs your support. He needs a family. He needs your love. You can help him like the others helped each other. It'll take time, and he'll need to be kept on a very tight leash, but he can change.

Roselight Ivy

Red just looks like me during this whole quarantine thing, tbh.

Shiny Skunk

Monilius : Woof, you looked cute without your mask. Are you part of Keth's kingdom now? Eyes : Why you so pissed at us? I remember you said you wished you got to know us better before. I wish we could have given you a big kiss and experience the pink screen. Do any of you guys know what the Pink Screen was?

RexFurry

Woof, I don't know what to say. I don't think I got a chance to interact with anyone in this story, my other commands didn't go through.

RexFurry

[To Keth]: I am glad to hear that most of you are doing great, even if not all of you. Some mourn, some moving on - you take your lives slowly,but surely under control. And as a Patron I'm truly sorry for what i did and was about to do. You obviously deserve more apologies, but that's all I had at the moment. And considering the Voice, let me ask you first - what happened to Voxotaur or its body? Somebody here had....big dreams of it becoming more than mere vessel for us. Even if the dream was unachievable, we would be relieved to know that our former body is not left and forgotten. Considering the Voice: At best its a trial, where you,beings, don't have any idea what you want from him -to redeem or to punish. Continuing this vicious cycle with you sending him our way is pure mockery of any common sense - he won't find what he's looking for Beyond the Screen. It will drive him crazi...er. But being reasonable is hard, keeping in mind your struggles with him. I get it. Please, you're closest thing to family for him. And now united as you are, isn't it better to find a permanent solution? One that involves not facing him at another time, another century, him holding hostage even more precious lives against any of us.[To Red]: I wouldn't dream of understanding your situation, but you're in Las Vegas and short of one hand. I must deduct that the whole thing or your magic had its toll on You. Please, share your burden with the those,who might never come back again. It may help you feel a little better, even for a moment. [ To Sydan]: I'm glad about your decision. But remember, families are for truly compassionate. You may fear your father, you may despise him for one moment of weakness, but it's never too late for forgiveness. P. S. I apologize for sheer amount of text. The story is coming to the end and its hard to keep it together.

Archeus

Keth: The suit looks great, excellent taste. Something of your own design? Fingers: You went through a lot, even for a Being. I'm really impressed with your new direction, rather than lashing out with your pain. Legion: Sorry that we got banished immediately after I tried to promise you something good. Seems like putting Keth up as the new face of the duchy is working out with you immediately behind him. I hope the lessons are close enough to making him 'earn it' for you, he still has to do the learning himself after all. Pepi: Take good care of those two. I know you would anyways, but please do. It's probably better to have you be a guiding light than hearing our multifarious influence.

Oneiros

(Well yay, this is a mostly happy ending. The Zork virus helped save the day in a critical way. Tch, I’m sad nobody stayed fat! Harvey’s got abs again, Sydan is skinny… Where my tubby boys gone? Chuck still stayed muscular. No fair!!) Legion : So, are you satisfied with your lot in life now? Working hard? Still ambitious? Or are you relaxing now. Tell, how are you creating lies? Sweet evil lies, or bitter sludgy happy lies?

Austin Wonderer

((The one major risk of reforming him is that the voices can just command all of the others, absorb the three who are present, and go hunting for Gastro and Sydan. Like a horror movie ending where you know who’s going to die next.))

WorgenRouge

The Voices hated being locked away inside of us before, from what I understand. Locking him away again in some kind of prison of being in the real world but not having any access to it is an ultimate cruelty the begot this whole saga. If Void can give him REAL humanity, what he REALLY wants, sure. Go for that. But I suspect they can't. Therefore, the only positive outcome is to rehabilitate. Let Voice come back and show him compassion. Change him with love.

Crowbar

Thank you for saving Harvey and being there for him Derrekk.

Cid

((Wow. This is beautiful, so many good things. I really don’t know what to do about voices though. What was Keth trying to say there?)) ((ALSO I SAVED HARVEY AHHHHH)) HARVEY: Cheers mate, it’s yer werewolf pal Monte, from beyond da screen! I’m so glad you’re alright, glad I really WAS able to ‘elp. I know I’ve already asked fer so much from yew, but if there’s one last fav’r I could request? Please look out fer Pepi, an' especially Gastro. The free ov yew can go so far together, an' I know yew can all make each uvver 'appy. Jus’ promise me; Gastro needs yew so much, an' I fink yew need 'im too. Cheers an' all da best, an' tell Pepi an' Gastro what Monte says goodbye an' thanks tuh all ov yew. Oh, and tell Gastro not tuh let those tossers in ‘is ‘ead give ‘im a rough time. He’s better than bof ov dem. And er between us... ah hope yuh get the chance to show our werewolf jus’ whut tha’ tongue can do!

WorgenRouge

(wow... deep... too deep O_O;....)

Xeralex

(im sorry this is kinda long but... if these are gonna be my last words in this comic I really want to make them count).

Neth Rusiki Azhti

Keth: There is SO MUCH i want to say, but since I can't, I'll just try and say what's most important to me: I want to thank every single one of you; very single person we saw, heard of or interacted with. Your world is so wondrous to me and it has been the thing I have loved the most for the longest time. Thinking about this being the last time we visit or hear from you has made me cry a lot these past few days. I know there's nothing you can do to assure me of anything but... I don't want to say goodbye, and would prefer to say instead "see you again, someday". I love you. Secondly, I think the VOICE can be redeemed and I would like to give him another chance. VOICE: Its not your fault. Its not your fault for existing and its not your fault that you feel hurt and feel pain. Even if you can control everyone around you, people aren't just empty puppets, and they have REAL thoughts and REAL feelings that are outside of our control or of your command. To the people of your world, that "world of illusions" is just as real as our world is to us. Just because your world came from ours doesnt make it any less real or special. All it takes for you to stop suffering is for you to realise that even though there is no reason for existance, you can give meaning to your own life, and you can learn and grow and enjoy things if you give yourself a chance.

Neth Rusiki Azhti

Keth: Yes, I think it would be fine if the voices stayed with us. (OFF: Don't really mind if you don't include this, just want to make my opinion heard) Sydan & Heart : Hey there, brother of the night. It seems you found a way to bless all of your community with the Heart's power. How are you guys doing? Sydan, have you managed to talk to Gastro, or did you decide to leave that in the past? Are you still looking for romantic love? Heart, I hope that now that we are out of a crisis you managed to explore your sexuality a bit better, I hope Sydan hasn't been much of a prude in that department..? And finally, Sydan, how is your father doing? Have you talked? He looks so frail, I thought vampires didn't age...

Hinner

Keth. Can you make a lie for the Voices? Honestly, I want to give him what he wants. Because I can honestly think of no worse punishment for him than being a person on this side of the screen. When we shrivel up from disease, no one saves us and gives us strength like we've never known. When we're forced to leech on others just to survive, we get no powers or longevity. When we lose people we love, we don't get any second chances. When our lives are controlled by powers greater than us, it's just amoral people with more money who see us as expendable for their own luxury. When we fear monsters and demons in the dark, there's nothing there save our own minds and the malice of other people. When we die...no matter how much we want to live...we're gone. That stupid fuck doesn't know how good he has it, not being "real".

Star Ringer

( WOW! Now that is something! Love the face the fingers has now and how they all work together! Might i even add that i had the same plant idea for the ghosts XD!! And Harvey and Pepi together! Yes! i was kinda routing for this two to stay like this, being lovers or friends! They just seemed so good pair for each other to me ^w^! Blaze, it is really an awesome epilogue XD!! )

Xeralex

Keth is really to good for us T_T I'm curious to see what happened with Monilius and the Voxotaur body and it's good that Subject 9 wasn't destroyed, I love him so much. Everyone seemed fine except for Red, what the hell happened to him? I'm really worried, was it the toll for using his power way back when? Keth: Keth, my prince it's good to see you, I wish we could stay with you, but we all knew this day would come. Don't let that hold you down though, you have such a bright future ahead of you and I couldn't be happier! Send my regards to all our friends and try to help Red, it seems like he needs it. I believe we should take on the Truthsayer, but not as a tool this time, but as an equal. It seems all he wanted was to be human, so that's exactly how we're going to treat him. We'll show him all we can so that hopefully someday he'll return fulfilled and reformed. He may have done a lot of bad things, but I believe he can still change for the better. This story is so amazing, it brings out feelings I never knew I had inside of me. I love it to death and it was a great ride if this is the end. If it's too hard to decide what to do with the Truthsayer then I want to do whatever Keth suggests.

Cid

To Keth: It's good to see that you and the rest of the team are doing as good as possible all of you can be! But our dear Keth please answer me 2 things. What happen to Vox? Did I succeed to give in him his own soul? And secondly, why haven't you guys combine your powers to save Jack from the past and bring him to the present? If you do you probably be able to save him just before he was destroyed without disturbing the timeline or at the very least save his soul, so he can pay for all he did! He caused of all this mess. The least he can do is to be put to work and help you fix it. Damn if possible, this parton would love to come over and help you as well!

Xeralex

I actually really like this idea! I wonder if it'd work.

Lee Evergreen

In before people bug Gastro and Harevey about whether they're dating. Leave them alone about it Gastro is mourning. He doesn't need to be thinking about that right now.

Lee Evergreen

To Keth: Hey there. I'm late. I only obtained the power of my fellow Patrons lately...but, I wanted to thank everyone for what they've done. Also, you're adorable, Keth, but I wanted to give a special thank you....to Legion. He deserves a share of it, and I know he could use it in the coming damage control. I'll entrust how the Voices are handled to my fellow Patrons. I wish I could say more, but time is short. I hope we may be able to talk again someday. Maybe even, in person.

Dzel

Thank you for showing us all that happened, Keth. We're truly proud of youf or all you've done and achieved. Tell Gastro for us that he is a good Alpha, and we're sure he'll be able to find that same kind of love for someone like he did for Jack. And if he does go through with it, tell Pepi to don't forget to invite you and the others in that haunted mansion if he buys it. And as for the voices, all they truly wanted was to experience life as all the other living creatures in the world. I think that if instead of locking it away behind the screen we let him experience life anew as a human being then I think things will be much different.

Kageichi

Why don't we just split half of the Truthsayer bits between the Patrons and the rest get divided between the Beings?

AnotherMeekOne

I think we should bring voice back over here but maybe let him reform a little so he can consciously experience humanity like he wanted. (To Keth and Void): Hello my dear loves, it's good to see life's been kind to you since we've been away! How you two feeling, have the other beings been nice to you Void? Some of us think it's weird none of them acknowledged you in that little exchange just now. I hope you're at least having fun with the children of this world. (I want to speak to Gastro): I wanted to personally say goodbye to you. I saw so much of myself while I watched you. I cant express how sorry I am for your loss, and that we couldn't do more to help. (Only add this part if we decide to bring Voice back here) We will be taking Voice back through the screen, and hopefully give him the chance to be better Jack never got.

Lee Evergreen

Well it did come from us so it is our responsibility so hey why not take it back. Anyways glad to have this awesome epilogue and Keith you cutey in the suit was and always be my favorite, will miss being able to touch you but it is for the best. Plus at least we get to see you still.

ZooFan 123

Hmmmm....what to do?

Andreas Silva

Is there a user manual?

Daddy McQuaig

I'm glad everything ended well. Sure there have been ups and downs but in the end, everything is good in the end.
