Synopsis:
Following the battle with the Anti-Fate, Linda Strauss is dying. Nabu brings her into the Tomb of the Avatar. Inside she is reunited with Eric who now exists in the body of Eugene Di Bella. Eugene's wife Wendy has suffered a brain hemorrhage and now lays dying in a hospital. With the help of the Avatar, Linda's spirit is transferred to Wendy's body. The spirits of Eugene and Wendy depart, while Eric and Linda remain on Earth in their bodies. Nabu is also reincarnated as a fetus carried by Linda in Wendy's body.
Elsewhere, Petey and Jack Small meet with Kent and Inza Nelson. Kent explains to his wife that the reality they have believed to be Heaven was a gift from Nabu. They return to Earth, leaving their fictional reality and son behind.
