As everyone comes to terms with the loss, Kei and Aya find a new purpose in their respective lives. Kei grows into his role as the head of Banrei-do while Aya begins her journey of self-discovery. Memories do not cease with the end of life. Rather, they continue on in the hearts and minds of the living.
