Final
As the legendary bird bites the dust, the vicious hailstorm calms down. You wonder if this has been enough to clear the weather outside as well, but nevertheless, this was a necessary step to take towards the conquering of the Stormrage Mountain summit. As you call back your Pokémon and prepare to return to the New Dawn camp, one of you notice something at the base of the spire. It looks like an oddly shaped altar, sculptured in pure ice. Obscure writings show on the surface, and below them the image of what looks to be a blue sapphire, or something like that. Nothing you can do about it, though.
It will be quite a long way back, but at least you cheer at the thought you won't have to deal again with that obnoxious storm.
And that is finally a wrap!
