The whale didn't realize until now that he gave Ari this power. They both know that for this plan to work, Ari would have to die.
This is the last page of the flashback scene. The next page will return the narrative to the present.

Either Ari was one big a** baby or that was a very small baby whale
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
He was small as a calf

ah okay...unless Ari was the calf size o.o

The two panels with the whales near the bottom are very well done and interesting.

Thanks! I wanted to show the parallel ^^

Maybe they'll find another way.

Oh... He can't live without that light can he?

No, just like darkness can't survive without it.

The panel with Mabel made me cry

I thought she deserved her own panel in the finale.

There has to be another way! Ari can't die! *starts to uncontrollably sob and room floods*

He's already been through so much, but he was still willing to go though with it.

Aww poor Ari...
Damn...so it's what we've been saying...Ari has to die for Rikus to be defeated... NOOO! He can't die! That can't be it for the flashback! There's got to be another way! I know you got something up your sleeve, LAC, but still...poor kid has been through a lot...
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
That would make a great picture actually
Yeah, Ari has been though so much. He was brave and was resigned to his fate, but now that Kira's dead, things have changed.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Lol!
I could see why things have changed. He was probably hoping to set Kira free from Rikus by letting him kill him, hence the exchange.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah, exactly.
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
All is explained. Now, back to the fray... nervous now.
It seems that for the three races on Asteryn to survive, Rikus HAS to bow to love, and give his life-force to Kira. He will redeem himself in that one act of love, and save everyone else. Now I know he is just not altruistic at all (lol right), but he might do this for Kira. And we're all better of without him anyway.
Now, assuming this is what will happen, will Ari and Kira have extended life-spans? Wondering because what would happen when they both eventually die? The situation would be the same as it is now wouldn't it?

There's still quite a bit of story left to tell. All I can say is that we'll just have to wait and see how this all plays out.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
ah ha, that tells me I'm onto something. 
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
And thus there would be balance of light and dark.
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
NO NO NO NO NO NO NO
NO KILLING ARI
THAT IS NOT ALLOWED
I WILL NOT STAND FOR THIS

Ari was completely resigned to die, but now that Kira's gone, things became complicated again.

The line between good and evil has been very thinned out. Eventually there is no good or evil, just choices that can either harm or heal.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
That's exactly how I intended it. I really do believe that there is never any definite good or evil. There is only ever a spectrum.
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
So...the whale set him up as 'a pig for slaughter'? to reference severus snape....
👍: 0 ⏩: 3
Not on purpose. Remember the whale never intentionally gave Ari this power. It's only after the whale realized his mistake that Ari was dragged into this. It was never intentional.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Oh okay. Thanks for clearing that up
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
No problem
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
that would sort of make Ari the whale's horcrux...speaking of which, does that mean Ari would be able to return as a normal alae later?
👍: 0 ⏩: 2
If Rikus were to destroy the light within him, that would end his life. The light is the only thing keeping him alive, ever since he was a child. If it's snuffed out, Ari won't survive.
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
What I meant was, they gave ari the tear, knowing he was going to die later on. But they didn't tell him that when they gave him the tear. So it was just like, they set him up for slaughter
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah, i realized....
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
Lol nice reference!
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
Well, but... why'd the whale have to die? What's the plan, exactly!?! Kill Ari?!?!?! WHY MUST YOU TORTURE US WITH WITHHOLDING INFORMATION!?
Also....
Maaaaaaabbbbeeellllllllll... *sad bird noises*
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Well, Ari and the whale went into the battle planning to both die and in doing so, killing Rikus. They hope that with the Gods dead, the races would survive to cohabitant peacefully. At this point though, there was still the possibility that destroying Rikus would kill the human race, but that could also be part of a misunderstood myth.
There were so many unknown variables that they just came up with the best strategy that they could.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah, that's what kind of confused me. You said earlier that Ari can't just kill Rikus or the humans will die... but if the light and dark both die at about the same time... okay, I got it.
It also explains why Ari wasn't fighting back a whole ton.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah, Ari didn't fight back because his goal was to lose.
