'''To Be Continued...'''
to:
The shadow of Dis Baba observes these events from a nearby wall. Iota and Unus both take note of the shade and watch it for any signs of hostile intent, but it simply shrugs and offers a round of applause before vanishing. Iota then takes his own leave, vowing to stop the multiversal war and prevent Digamma's return.
Outside the boundaries of the multiverse itself, the Outsider--the EldritchAbomination that was puppeteering Dis Baba--reflects on the events of the game. It is satisfied by the spectacular finale, but disappointed that the Nomads' games--its main source of entertainment--have been stopped for good. Still, it knows that a new game is in the works...
Elsewhere, Ravage comes to on the bridge of a transwarp cruiser with a few gaps in his memory. He incorrectly assumes that he escaped from the Nomads under his own power and killed a few of them before he left. Pleased, he goes off to find the ''Animated'' version of Megatron and start the campaign of {{multiversal conque|ror}}st they discussed, unaware that something has infected him...
The Outsider watches Ravage go with pleasure, ominously musing that "the Blight" will soon begin.
In an entirely different corner of the multiverse, the mysterious presence which helped the Champions against Omega is on trial. By intervening he has risked exposing his people's existence to the rest of the multiverse, and for this he is sentenced to death. The execution is carried out on the spot.
And in yet another part of the multiverse, [[SequelHook a heavily distorted voice declares that it still lives]]...

And they do. Narumi gives Raz his hat as a sign of respect, and when Raz guiltily refuses, he offers it to Mason instead. Sub-Zero praises Blink, Naoto, and Raz for the courage they've displayed and gifts each of them a Kori Sword. Blink and Naoto depart for the latter's world together, with Blink and Rey sharing one last tearful hug beforehand. The Doctor takes Eta and Chi with him, effectively adopting these young Nomads to give them a chance at a better life. Durant, Wong, and Spriggan all depart for their respective worlds, the former two believing it all to have been a dream. Bowser leaves without a word, though he does give Lambda and Rho a respectful nod on his way out. Link urges his companions to remember everything as he returns to Hyrule. Narumi briefly returns to his world to get some closure with his family and friends, then joins Mason in the latter's world. Craft, heavily damaged from the final battle, returns to his world and dies as he was originally meant to, his last thought being of the woman he loved.
Rey, Lux, and Saren collectively decide that they will not be going home. Rey has changed too much to fit back into normal society, Lux would rather take this opportunity to explore the multiverse and learn more about the rules of magic than return to a life of constant pointless battles, and Saren has no life to go back to other than being a pawn of ''Sovereign''. Lambda leaves the portals open for them at Lux's request and gives them some advice for their future multiversal travels. Unus makes a surprise appearance then, promising to keep the mansion safe from multiversal incursions.

Now that the danger has passed, Saren decides it's time to settle the score with Lambda. He approaches Lambda while the Nomad is desperately crawling over to his unconscious wife's side and holds him at gunpoint. He demands that the Nomad give him a reason to spare his life, ignoring or brushing off the other Champions' attempts to persuade him to let this go (though he does downgrade it to letting Lambda live if he acknowledges what a dick he's been). But Lambda is offended that someone like Saren is trying to take the moral high ground with him. He acknowledges that he's no saint but then [[Literature/MassEffectRevelation airs Saren's dirty laundry]], pointing out that the Spectre has done plenty of terrible things himself, and for far less valid reasons. Saren accepts this response and puts his gun away.
Saren sparing him soon proves to be a moot point. The sheer extent of Lambda and Rho's injuries makes it clear that the two Nomads aren't long for this world, and while several Champions try to treat their wounds, it's not enough. Nevertheless, they still have enough life and power left to do what's necessary.

Digamma warps into the cavern with several of his Dervishes. He mockingly congratulates the two lovebirds on the reunion and takes his leave, leaving his minions to kill everyone.

In the chaos, the Black Stig is shot and killed.
Upstairs in the ballroom, Digamma confronts Dis Baba after the latter consumes one of his Militantiaries. Dis Baba remains snide and smug in the face of the increasingly irritated Nomad. Zeta confronts Digamma as well. The two Nomads begin to duke it out while Dis Baba watches them go at it, offering only passive resistance and mockery to any attacks sent his way.

Sometime later, the Champion-Nomad group arrives in the heart of ECHIDNA's realm and discovers the core of her being: a hideous, crucified giantess partially submerged within a lake of acidic blood.

In Digamma's lair, the specimen senses Lambda's grief at ECHIDNA's apparent death and goes berserk. This isn't enough for it to gain the upper hand, however, and Digamma mortally wounds the monster.

It plans to put him back into stasis due to the changes Gordon made to the timeline by destroying the Combine overworld, but Gordon tenders his resignation by shoving the Shot Heard Around The Universe into the monster's mouth and blowing its brains out.
In Digamma's lair, the specimen senses Lambda's grief at ECHIDNA's apparent death and goes berserk. This isn't enough for it to gain the upper hand, however, and Digamma mortally wounds the monster. Inexplicably, it then projects a hologram of Lambda--the original Lambda, not the one the Champions are familiar with--from one of its eyes. This projection declares that the creature is a product of research he decided should not be pursued and that it is now going to implode, obliterating everything within five kilometers. Digamma barely manages to throw the dying specimen out of his lair in time, though the lair still gets grazed by the implosion. Digamma, though displeased by the damage to his fortress, nevertheless [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=uob7p22fde8x8xjk3zrwotce&page=995#comment-24863 takes a moment to taunt Lambda about the death of his "son"]].

It fears what will happen if Omega's plan is allowed to unfold. It intervenes by [[HavingABlast triggering a spontaneous nuclear explosion]] right in Omega's face, grievously wounding him and wrecking his bomb and command center beyond repair. It then opens a portal for the Champions, letting them go from Zeta;s chamber straight to Omega's command center. Many of the Champions jump through this portal without even a backwards glance at the still-trapped Zeta. Fortunately for him, Lux has a better attention span than the average goldfish and rallies some of the others to help her free him. Zeta elects to stay behind, but one of the proxies gives Rey a small fragment of the Common Room to help even the odds in the upcoming battle with Omega.

[[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=uob7p22fde8x8xjk3zrwotce&page=983#comment-24560 The Champions emerge from the portal and find Omega in a bad way]]. The pain of his injuries and the humiliation of having his plans ruined have pushed him to the brink of madness. As the Champions debate whether they should kill or spare Omega, he attacks them, initiating the (apparent) FinalBoss fight.
It's an uphill battle, even with Omega in such a weakened state: [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=uob7p22fde8x8xjk3zrwotce&page=986#comment-24645 Gordon is skewered by a tentacle]] and [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=uob7p22fde8x8xjk3zrwotce&page=987#comment-24652 Galen is mortally wounded while shielding Rey from the Nomad's lightning]]. As the Champions start gaining the upper hand, Omega threatens them all with a DeadMansSwitch, only to panic as he becomes aware of an invisible presence. The presence begins to negate Omega's attacks, and while he is distracted, Rey thrusts Mal-Keshar's phylactery-sword at him. The resulting blast of necromantic energy banishes Mal-Keshar's spirit back to his own world and fatally wounds Omega. The Nomad [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=uob7p22fde8x8xjk3zrwotce&page=988#comment-24678 triggers his dead man's switch]], and the planet begins collapsing into a singularity. Everyone is surely doomed, but the presence steps in and portals everyone away. Omega howls as he, and he alone, is dragged down into the event horizon to suffer an endless living death.
In the Nomads' amphitheater, the presence posts an indestructible sign telling the Nomads to knock their games off if they know what's good for them.
[[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=uob7p22fde8x8xjk3zrwotce&page=988#comment-24686 The Champions find themselves in the foyer of an opulent mansion]]. Nearby is an empty ballroom lined with portals, each one keyed to a particular Champion's home reality. The message is clear: the Game of Gods is finished, and these weary heroes can say their goodbyes and go home at last...

He reveals himself as the creator of the Common Room and the architect of the Persona 4 challenge, which angers Rey and Naoto. [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=uob7p22fde8x8xjk3zrwotce&page=978#comment-24442 Rey demands answers from the Nomad]] about why he was picked to be a Challenger, but Zeta has neither answers nor fucks to give.
Iota and Chi then show up on Zeta's doorstep, much to his annoyance. Between the two of them, the Champions learn that Lambda had ordered Tau to assemble the Nomads to fight Unicron, only for the Nomads to sit around doing nothing. Phi encourages Zeta and Chi to side with the Champions and get out of this sinking ship. In response, Zeta reveals his secret: [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=uob7p22fde8x8xjk3zrwotce&page=981#comment-24511 the teenaged-looking Nomad that everyone's been interacting with for the whole game is just one of many robotic proxies of the real Zeta]], who is an elderly man trapped within an obelisk in the next room. The robots are unable to free Zeta from his prison, and so they need the Champions to do it for them.
