Nothing really stopping them from picking her up in space, she might enjoy it that the gods have become glorified batteries.

She literally had a lot of time to cool off.

She's just in the 'time out' corner.

Anyone seen the fun, but terribly drawn, comic SpaceBox? 122 comics (so far) of a man in a box in space. The escape pod he is inside is highly advanced, but lacking in anything resembling propulsion. He's basically just a piece of galactic flotsam bobbing through the currents of space over aeons. Sometimes encountering strange alien life, mostly just talking to the A.I. computer.

I'd like to see a similar thing done as a series of epilogue omake for Salem. If Wren's children do find her, they should get a volunteer to play the part of the somewhat sarcastic A.I. conversation partner.
 
I was actually wondering if Salem would eventually find her way back to Remnant except with her mind being warped by the solitude of space. Her mind would then be obsessed with Wren the way Jeanne is obsessed with Kagayaku because he was the last one to show her kindness and affection.
 
One of the last true OP SI OG writers that know when to end a story . Mad congratulations and arigatou for the experience

Epilogue - Part Three



"I say we could take him," Yang muttered, "Just show up, smiling, and punch the living daylights out of him."

"Yang," Ruby muttered, "Bad Yang."

"And has that ever worked?" Weiss snorted. "He will do things his way. Always."

I really want to see them go into his tower just to find his dead body if it hasn't already been buried or cremated or whatever type of death ceremony they have
 
More importantly, What does the eternal crusader Ozma think of this new world? is he having a few lifetimes of vacation and retirement getting high and partying? Or does he think negatively of Wren and the New World Order?
 
Well, wren always did chase for the glory to humanity (robot and faunus included) ending, instead of the golden ending. He might think the ending he chased the golden ending, but it's not.

Kinda sad winter and ironwood was killed off offscreen.oh well, not everyone can get a memorable end.
 
Thank you for this story Shade. :D I really have enjoy seeing Wren's journey with your writing.

But seriously, the more scenes you show of Ruby, the more I feel convinced that if they interacted more WrenXRuby would have been the Ture Pairing. Man, is it a lost opportunity. It fucking sucks that Wren died unloved except by his daughters and creations.

One thing I can't help but wonder about though and want closure on:

What happened to Winter?
 
Will never understood on why everyone hates the fact that all Grimm are dead and people are flourishing. All because it's handed to them, Ruby have a great insight on the issue but I just like to think it's just people being petty and prideful.
 
The Space Salem ending kinda gave me a Borderlands Vibe. The humor of this Story also gave me a slight Borderlands Vibe, well the Epilogue I mean. Thanks for the story, and keep up the good work Shade! Your stories are truly work of arts! Worth of the Highest Praise no matter what anyone says! And damn my fucking self for loving it!:lol
 
I am surprised he didn't become a wizard, he managed to go 30 years without ever getting frisky with someone. He really reads more like a machine/robot than any of his creations.

Trap she was stringing him along. Watts is likely dead or underground. Tyrian, Ironwood, and Winter likely died in the prison fight and the remains were devoured by Grimm.

Though that sticks to me as a failed plot point. The Fall of Vale happens after Salem and Wren's conversation where he says family is important to him. So why wouldn't she send one of her trusted tools to kidnap his sister as leverage? Could have really put Wren in a pickle choosing between family and his goals to save mankind. And though it would break his heart and cause others to hate him as a soldier Winter would be the most understanding of his inevitable choice to sacrifice her. Or he'd pull something out of his ass and save her too.

I will say the main gripe I have with Shade inserts is from the ZNT, HP, and now RWBY ones where his presence makes the main characters pointless and he constantly burns bridges left and right yet achieves his goals. Yes of those three only King Shade of Galia truly had a happy ending. Given how Umbrus Shade became a amalgamation of Shade and Riddle, and now how Wren his both loved and reviled in equal measure by humanity. Though as the Robusta epilogue showed his daughters hijacked the afterlife and brought him back. Even when he loses he wins by some measure.

That's a funny thought they took over the afterlife. So now everyone who has died is alive again through Necron shenanigans. I'm sure Weiss will alternate between hugging Winter and strangling Shade.
 
A fun story

Shade need to go to Valkyria chronicles next, another great setting for RPG played as RTS.
 
Wait. This story was based on Saruman of Many Devices? That's very interesting @shadenight123 Also, I hope that Shade goes to Valkyria Chronicles. It would be interesting on what he would do with Ragnite. Would he built it to destroy the East Europan Imperial Alliance and the Atlantic Federation or would he build a World With No Boundaries?

No, we can into world wars just fine. We just lose our troops, surrender half-way through by changing sides, and then somehow end up at the winner's table-side like some kind of overzealous puppy-mascot that somehow, just somehow, gets *something* out of the deal.

Italy has never lost a proper world war. We just like to spice things up for our allies and then become the enemy's best friend.
