For the three scenes, collectively titled "Hail to the King," every present character (see Glyff's announcement below) receives 5 XP. This marks the conclusion of Altair's character arc, as well as the end of Act Two of Shadows Over the South as a chronicle. As of this scene, Altair is officially retired.

NPC XP goes to Altair (but isn't he dead?), Amelia, Antonin, Walking Funny, and... okay, you all know which NPCs were present.

ST XP goes to J, Glyff, Get of Reinass, and Joy.

In Addition:
  • For his extensive valor and going above and beyond the call of duty in service to his Tyrant and to his Court, Sig receives another dot of Eminence, free of charge. Further, should he go back to collect his Angel Blade, he will feel it... changed, somehow, by coming into contact with Gungnir. He should take it to Randall to have him take a look at it... Courtesy of J and Glyff.
  • All Mages present earn: 20 Tass each. + 1 dot Lore: Reborn for free + 1 Wonder 3 of their choice to be ordered at the Chantry (for free). Gabriel and William will get a Wonder 4 of their choice instead of Wonder 3. All Mages present in this scene also gain an increase in Status (Starke Council)  (to be communicated by Joy in-character), unless they are already Status 3. Courtesy of Joy.
  • For being the second Mage in history to cast the Spell of Life, Joy is allowed to keep her Tome of the Spell of Life. When she next opens it, however, she finds her name written in Ancient Egyptian beneath the name of the person who cast the spell the first time. There is a blank space beneath Joy's name: The name of the person who will cast this spell next remains unwritten, but will be the heir of this Tome later. This Tome provides a 25% discount on Life 5/Spirit 5. Further, Joy gains justification for the Iron Will merit, at a 50% XP discount.
  • Michael Radcliffe will soon be visited by Isis, the Goddess of Life, to be taught a certain ritual... Michael also gains justification for one extra dot of Permanent Willpower, at 50% discount. He also recovers the remnants of the Fang of Retribution. Finally, he gains justification for another dot of Lore: Reborn. Courtesy of Joy and Glyff.
  • The Garou note that there is ample material around after this battle for a new Fetish. See the resident Theurges for more details. All Garou present all earn a ton of Renown for slaying such a Wyrm-tainted monstrosity alongside their Sept Elder and even a Major Totem spirit. See the Werewolf STs for more details. The next Moot ought to be really interesting...
  • The Vampires help themselves to the blood and ashes of the various Reapers and Amkhat, which would no doubt be of interest to the Tremere. Further, they discover an intact grimoire written in ancient Egyptian, but there are several hieroglyphs depicting blood. Some annotations written by an Amkhat make reference to 'blood magick.' As none of the Vampires present can translate it, they will need to find somebody else who can. Alternatively, they can give this to the Tremere in exchange for Boons. Finally, for serving their Prince in combat, each Vampire present gains one free dot of Status (Camarilla). Reginald, due to not being a member of the Camarilla, instead gains a dot of Status (Starke Council). This can likewise be used as justification for an increase in Haven or even Domain depending on their current level. (Courtesy of Glyff and Callidus. Get into contact with Glyff and Callidus if attempting to translate the Grimoire.)
  • The Amenti present all receive justification toward their next Balance dot. Note: You will still have to pass the Balance scene. Courtesy of Glyff.
  • Armand will gain justification for a certain Gift once news of his deed spreads, details to be sorted out with Silverbear.
  • Altair posthumously gains Status (Starke Council) 6: Legend.
  • Joy, Michael, and Vivian gain Status (Starke Council) 5: Pillar of the Community.

Additionally:
A Fetish, Wonder 2 : The ring provided by Marquis with the seal of Marchosias painted with Hollower silver paint, with a shard of True Cross encased under the seal. The ring doubles as a Trinket 1 (It hides the presence of the spirit 'Titulus' from other spirits but not from Mage Sight). The Fetish requires special knowledge from Lore:Awakened 2 or Lore:Shapechanger 2 to be identified correctly as a Fetish.
Mechanically, Sean asks a question and rolls Charisma + Empathy or Manipulation + Subterfuge diff 6: 1s needed. If the success is obtained, Titulus is willing to help Sean. For a Int + Ocullt (specialty : Blessed or infernal ritual), the Fetish gives -2 diff on the difficulty of the roll).
The 3 Quint spent by Sean to make the Trinket were refunded to him (Chantry node, exceptional use).
