Time became invisible, flowing like water, filling every space left behind. Melania and Endar no longer needed words. Their understanding had merged, and they felt themselves becoming one with the very essence of what they had once fought against. All those years, the battles, and the searches—none of them were separate from them. They had become part of the very system they had tried to destroy.
They had realized they couldn’t change the system without becoming part of it. This was the only way—to enter the heart of it, to become it, and through that transformation, change it.
Endar reached out and gently touched Melania’s hand. Their eyes met, and in each other, they saw what they had long sought—peace, but not a simple or superficial peace. It was peace born from understanding that all the battles, the suffering, and the sacrifices had been part of a larger plan.
“We can no longer search for enemies outside of us,” said Melania, her voice calm but filled with deep realization.
“Because they are within us,” Endar replied, his eyes shining not with strength, but with the understanding that went beyond all battles and conflicts.
They were no longer observers. They had become the force that changed Eternity from the inside. And in that moment, they felt their bodies cease to exist as separate entities. All that remained was an infinite energy pulsing along with Eternity, an invisible connection between them and everything around them.
“We have become the ultimate result,” Melania said, her words falling into the silence surrounding them.
“Yes,” Endar responded. “We did not simply complete the cycle. We have become part of a new beginning. Now, we can no longer define where our struggle ends and where our peace begins. It is all one.”
And with that realization, they dissolved into the result, becoming the very essence of Eternity. No longer seeking answers, they had become the answers themselves, an inseparable part of the infinite movement that would always continue.
