* WhereAreTheyNowEpilogueWhereAreTheyNowEpilogue:
** Maris Rubin: She has taken over running the Mapletrope Hotel in Cedric's place. Maris also mentions she will be forever grateful to Phoenix for all of his help and even says that he say at the hotel for free anytime.
** Terry Greisen: Mentions that he visited his late wife's grave to tell her the good news about Helmock finally being taken down. He wonders what he should do with his life and even considers going back to Interpol. He then surmises about keeping his detective lingo or not.
** Vex Vulper: He has been taken off of death row after being revealed he wasn't behind Cedric and Perry Docks' deaths. Vulper is ecstatic that Phoenix managed to take down Helmock, but still says he [[DeathSeeker wished to experience the trials of death]]. Vulper then decides he will just live out the rest of his life behind bars and even has his Titus Krump persona to keep him occupied.
