Epilogue

Briefing

Like I said, the entire world wants to know what happened with Darrin Wade. And, Character, with everything that has gone down this entire time, they want to hear it straight from you.

  • What are you trying to say?

The press has gathered in one of our conference rooms and want to get your comments on everything that has happened along the way.

If you don't want to participate, you can feel free to just go up there, say a few words, and then leave. However, this is your chance for the spotlight, if you want. You've just saved the world from Rula-Wade. Maybe you want to clear things up, or maybe you want to do, I don't know, something else.

We'll have some Vanguard officials there providing security for you.

Unnecessary Solicitation

They're all waiting for you, Character.

Mission Objective(s)

File:Map VANGUARD BASE PRESS CONFERENCE.png
Map: VANGUARD_BASE_PRESS_CONFERENCE

You can hear the reporters up ahead talking to each other. The room seems packed with them, all waiting to ask you questions about what has happened.

  • Attend the Press Conference
    • Leave the building
    • Deal with the Vanguard blocking the exit out (if conference is attacked)
    • Defeat Manticore (if no questions taken)

The press conference is over, and the saga with Darrin Wade has come to an end.

Enemies

Vanguard Shield
Freedom Phalanx
Editor's Note:

The press will only ask questions relevant to the chapters of Who Will Die that your character has completed. The questions/answers about each chapter can be mixed hero or villain, depending on what alignment you were when you completed them.

Podium
Briefing

You step up to the podium and look over the numerous reporters who are present. All of them want to know the truth behind everything you've done with Darrin Wade and the Freedom Phalanx.

  • I'll be taking your questions now.
Hero
 

Tell us about your involvement with Synapse and Darrin Wade's obelisk! Synapse said you were the one who saved his life. How much involvement did you have in this?

  • Synapse did his best under the situation, but I was happy to help him. Next question.
  • The obelisk was a clear trap, and shows how the Phalanx was losing their edge. Next questions.
  • This was all part of Wade's plan, luckily Synapse got away safely. Next question.
You are known for helping to save Numina's father from the cult called the Rulu-Shin. What can you tell us about your experience and the role the Midnighters played?
  • The Midnighters were a great help, I couldn't have done it without them.
  • The Midnighters were weakened, so I stepped up to give them a hand during this time.
  • The Midnighters are a shell of their former selves. They would've been destroyed, if not for me.
Regarding the scenario with Alexis Cole-Duncan's death. We understand you did your best in the situation. There has been much blame pinned on Manticore for trying to keep this a secret. Can you give us a comment regarding Manticore's actions during this crisis?
  • Manticore was doing what he thought was right, That's all you can ask.
  • Manticore's actions were questionable, but I was there to help.
  • This is a sign that Manticore's time is about up. He's losing his edge.
Can you give us more information about the fate of Malaise in Sister Psyche's mind? We understand that he was killed trying to split Psyche's personality apart.
  • Malaise was insane, but I believe he could have been saved, like he was once before.
  • Sister Psyche did what she had to do. Malaise went out of control.

Debriefing

Didn't Attack the Press
Well, Character, it's all finally over now. Lady Grey has ordered a squadron of Vanguard to stay with Darrin Wade at all times.

From the reports I received, his mind is extremely damaged at this point. Wade barely remembers what happened, or who he even is.

However, somewhere within the confines of his mind is the knowledge of Rularuu, something which we can all make good use of.

If there's anything left of the original Darrin Wade, it's now trapped within the husk that is his body. I would feel sad for him, if I didn't think he got off lightly.

I know people have already said this, Character, but thank you, for everything. The world is safe, well, as safe as it was before Darrin Wade, all thanks to you.
Attacked the Press

Infernia scowls at you.

Stay away from me, Character! I should've known you were nothing but a lunatic! Why we ever trusted you is beyond me.

The next time you and I meet, I'll make sure that you're taken down, before you become something worse than Wade ever was.
