To his surprise, a sudden surge of power flows through him, freeing him from the noose. The rebels launch a surprise attack, rescuing Taren and defeating the king. Taren becomes the new ruler of the kingdom, ushering in a new era of peace and prosperity and fulfilling his destiny to bring freedom and justice to his people.
