Chapter 10 - Chapter 10: The Eternal Friction

The tower fell. The Council was erased. The city of Aethelgard saw the "bodies" of their leaders fall into the sea.

Years later, on a remote island far from the ruins of the old world, two figures lived in a small, reinforced villa. They still argued. They still fought over how to cook a meal or how to scout the perimeter. To an outsider, they looked like they loathed each other.

But when Juliet was injured by a stray predator, Romeo felt the pain instantly. When Romeo felt joy, Juliet smiled involuntarily. They had found the ultimate evolution of love: Absolute Inseparability. They didn't fall in love because of a kiss; they fell in love because they became the same soul.

They spent their whole lives together—not in a soft, poetic haze, but in a sharp, vibrant, and thrilling partnership of equals who realized that the "Parallel Universe" wasn't about being opposite; it was about being two halves of the most dangerous weapon ever created.

The story of Romeo and Juliet ended not with a funeral, but with a silent, eternal watch over a world they had broken and rebuilt together.
