Ava's return to the warehouse marked the beginning of a new era. She had come full circle, from a young girl searching for answers to a wise and powerful leader guiding a new generation.
As she looked at the team gathered around her, Ava saw the faces of those who had come before her - Bjorn, Elijah, and all the others who had played a part in her journey.
And she saw the faces of those who would come after her - Marcus, Akira, Kaito, and all the others who would carry on the legacy of the Ancients.
Ava realized that she was part of something much bigger than herself, something that transcended time and space. She was part of the circle of life, the cycle of birth, growth, decay, and rebirth.
As she stood there, surrounded by the people and the power she loved, Ava knew that she had finally found her true home. She had found the place where she belonged, the place where she could be herself, fully and completely.
And in that moment, Ava knew that she would always be with the power of the Heart, that she would always be a guardian of its wisdom and strength.
The circle of life would continue, and Ava would be a part of it, always.
