Alternative ends

(Especially for Merry)

· Stinking fantasy like:
"[…]Kathleen found herself hiding in the bush. She heard some trumpeting, and wondered what it could be. She lifted her head a little, and she couldn't believe it: it was an oliphant! Mounted with dozens of trolls, the beast was making its way through the plain and was about to trample Kathleen under its huge feet. Fortunately, Princess Daenerys appeared suddenly from the sky with her three dragons and swiftly came down. The great glittering black dragon grabbed Kathleen in its claws, and they all flew away back to Jamaillia."

· Steam-punk like:
"[…]Kathleen found herself balancing at the top of the Eiffel Tower. She only just managed to escape the automaton that was trying to throw her into space, and grabbed a rope hanging from the dirigible above. While the wind was swelling her gown, she felt someone taking her up. But when on the dirigible, she discovered with horror it was the Commander of the Imperial Guard. However, his sardonic laugh was interrupted by the knob of the Duke's cane who had arrived just in time, as usual. Kathleen tidied her hair while the Duke straightened his buttercup-yellow gloves, and he gave her his arm to take her to the dining room of the dirigible."

Oh, ben, c'est pas si pire que je le croyais.
Je me disais aussi que ces histoires de Kathleen étaient bien intéressantes, mais qu'elle manquait d'un peu de... de... de punch, c'est ça.
Personnellement, je vote pour la fin outrageusement romantique au sommet de la Tour Eiffel. Là, ça en jette! (si tu veux, tu peux quand même rajouter un ch'tit dragon sur fond de soleil couchant, ça le fait aussi)
