There stands Karlach in all her glory, looking to the sea and sun. "We did it soldier. The city is going to be alright. And so are you." You can hear the sorrow in her voice, she's holding back tears. You both know what's happening.

"Engine's cooked. Held on just long enough." She holds her hand to her heart- or where it should be. It's obvious this hurts, and a lot. She's swaying and wincing. Despite it all, she's still smiling.
