"Notice: The instance 'The Birth of the Fire Seed' has ended. Rewards are being calculated, please wait..."

In places he could not see, the gray ashes also drifted with the breeze, floating past the Land of Inheritance, over the Forest of Steles, and throughout the entire Ember Village.
After several great battles, the village was in ruins, but within the destruction, new shoots sprang forth, the flames did not die out, just like the delicate, fiery morning sun as it rose.
Under the morning sun, the dozen or so remaining warriors of Ember Village supported each other and made their way to the Forest of Steles behind the mountain.
The young man stood atop the stone steps, extending his remaining right hand across his chest, "The fire passes on... Humanity endures!"
Endures!
He choked up, tears streaming down his face.
