t's nearing the end.
The atmosphere in the Town is different now. There's a hush, as if the entire world is expecting something, watching and waiting and prepared for some final outcome --
And then it happens.
The trees come surging forward suddenly, intensely, aggressively. It's a fierce attack a determined attack, branchy limbs trying to take down human and building alike in the Town. But the attack reeks, too, of desperation.
It's the last battle, the last chance to bring about a happy ending. What will you do?

[ He feels she is speaking to the choir on that one. As a villain, he doesn't think that he's going to get a happy ending, but he would like ... he would like people to smile and to feel a moment of peace, like he's felt here. He's been grateful to everyone in allowing him to actually rest his mind and soul with them. ]
But still... I cannot ... I do not like the idea that you have doomed yourself to live unhappily. [ Shen Qingqiu turns to her. ] I think... yes, I think... if you are to live as long as us immortals [ And honestly, it'll probably be longer!! ] then you will promise that you'll find a happy ending for yourself.
I cannot accept anything else. [ Because, he can read the room! He can read it all! He can tell there is something coming and it feels like the END BOSS of the world. So, he has to say this now or he'll never get the chance! ]

Aha.
[ it’s more like she says it, rather than an honest laugh. she lifts her head to meet his gaze. ]
Then what do you suggest for me? What would a happy ending look like for a maiden such as myself? Because I cannot fathom it.

He's happy with the idea of just sitting somewhere on some secluded mountain, cultivating quietly, and being bothered by no one. This sort of thought is something that brings him peace.
To think that Sierra cannot even think of something like that is enough to flood a heart in an ocean of tears. Yet he's able to maintain a calm expression. ]
A maiden like yourself, hm? I suppose the ending that I hope for you... is one where you are able to look around where you are and smile to yourself and for yourself.
[ Whether it is alone or surrounded by people; where it is deep in the mountains or in some glorious castle. Wherever it is, he hopes that she can do something like that and feel the peace that he's been searching for himself. ]
Please search for that kind of end...

there’s no place for her. there hasn’t been in centuries. ]
You are more of an optimist than I imagined.
[ she brushes back her hair. ]
I hope there’s an end like that for me. Whether it’s in this world or another… I have yet to find it.
