The Windermerean attack force return to their home planet to bury Grammier and celebrate Heinz's coronation as the new king. The kingdom broadcasts the ceremony on all galactic networks, with Roid declaring that they will expand throughout the entire galaxy and crush the New United Government as the rightful heirs to Protoculture. Heinz's singing causes all of the Protoculture ruins in the Brísingr Cluster to rise, with the potential to amplify the Vár Syndrome across the galaxy.
