Epilogue

Welcome to Cartesio!
You open your eyes and see the ceiling of the lodge. There is no real sensation of having slept, but you're still feeling rested. Sitting up, you can see that the building around you is in ruins. Dust and dirt dominate your environment. Around you, there are familiar people - some of them you've been with up until now, some of them you have been brutally forced to part with weeks ago. They all look alright, a little confusion aside.
From a corner of the room, you can hear the soft whirring of a machine. Upon examination, you can see that it's 3D-printing more gelatinous bodies like you've seen earlier today. Every body that is dispensed from the machine is a safe haven for another mind from the simulation, another mind to join your ranks as real people.
After you've adjusted to the new situation and left the lodge, you find yourself greeted with perfect sunshine. There's a town welcoming you, friendly and peaceful. Though it is more modern than what you are used to, there is no mistaking it.
Cartesio, Nevada, welcomes you.
You're new people, in a new world. Every chance it has to offer is open for you.

It's easy to stop thinking rationally when you're in a rough situation.
[Not like he hasn't gotten super tunnel visioned about saving Shiro at all costs. Or should that be the "original" version of him did that. It's hard to know what to think about all that still. It's like the information got thrown at him with next to no time to process what it all means. What it all implies.
Maybe he doesn't want to. Maybe the thought of trying to unpack of that also makes him feel ill. His voice is a little flat.]
I'm glad you're okay.
