Summary
Standing there, wreathed by swirling dust motes in the overflowing shop, you feel yourself momentarily flung to the past. Odile hasn’t changed as much as the others, mainly settling into herself as the years passed by. There’s more darkless weaving through her hair now, enough so that after a drink or two she’s begun to joke about matching you in a few years. But in the dimness here, surrounded by leaning piles of antiques, you could imagine that the two of you just split off from the rest of the party to spend the afternoon together in companionable silence.
When you return to wherever you all are staying, Bonnie or Mirabelle will ask if you bought anything, and Odile will raise her book just enough so that they can read the cover, or else you will pull an odd trinket from your pocket, yet another souvenir to lose somewhere on the road to the King. For a moment, you exist in this strange half-space where all that Change has been undone, and you and your family are still on a journey with an uncertain ending. Then you blink, and it all comes back.
(On the anniversary of the King's defeat, Odile and Siffrin visit an antiques shop together.)

Summary
You can’t entirely believe this is happening in front of you, like you’re ready for some stranger to come in and shout, “And scene!”
It never comes. Time moves forward unabated.
Before they can make their fateful wish at the Favor Tree, a mysterious voice pops into Siffrin’s head and says, “Don’t do it. Just tell them how you feel.” This seems like the best of both worlds — keeping his found family without subjecting himself to time loop torture. But the problems they faced before don’t just disappear, and sometimes a fella has to make their own mistakes.

Summary
Okay, you’re not just imagining it, are you? He is looking at you strangely. Like… like something about you is paining him?? Did you do something wrong? You don’t think that you did, but-
“A-anyway, I was just looking at the Favor Tree!!” Isa pipes up abruptly, the cheerfulness of it bordering on jarring, “It's, um, pretty neat, isn't it???”

Summary
They did it, the King is dead and Vaugarde is saved.
It took all of their strength and determination, plus a mysteriously stellar performance from Siffrin while climbing the House, but their quest is at an end. There is nothing left to do.
And so the saviors separate and go their own ways. Each burdened by all that they left unsaid and an uneasy sense of regret.But the Universe still has a wish to fulfill and this ending does not suffice. The saviors will find that splitting up is not as easy as they expect.
In fact it might be impossible.
