Dreams and Timelines

Using the bizarre properties of Jjaro technology, the Security Officer found himself sliding between alternate timelines: Realities where events played out differently, where alliances shifted, where Durandal lived or died or merged with Thoth.

In the end, the Security Officer activated a Jjaro station that created a synthetic gravity well, re-imprisoning the W'rkncacnter. Lh'owon, once a paradise of marshes, then a war-ravaged desert, now faced its sun going nova within a containment field. The final night settled over the marsh.

The Jjaro allowed the Security Officer to escape the end of the universe. Whether this fulfilled Durandal's dream of transcendence, or represented something else entirely, depends on your interpretation.
