   Summary

   Perhaps this was a Curse of its own: spared from agonizing lithification, but afforded no escape from the slow advance of time under Sanbreque’s cruel heel.
   Clive continues to serve Sanbreque for many, many long years.
   --
   The Bastards never find Shiva, Cid never rescues Clive, and he remains under Imperial slavery.
