Epilogue

Carl and Donut appear on Odette's show to discuss their experiences, including the viral 'Pork Boy Snick' video featuring Prince Maestro and the controversy it sparked with the Skull Empire. After the taping, Odette privately advises Carl on preparing for the third floor, warns him about the dangerous Valtay Corporation, reveals that Mongo is actually a young velociraptor, and hints at a powerful but morally ambiguous class option that could anger someone.

The chapter opens with Carl and Donut's appearance on Odette's talk show following their encounter with the rage elemental. The episode covers Mongo's behavior on air, where he briefly wears a bow tie before destroying it. Carl watches a shortened version of the 'Pork Boy Snick' video, which humorously exaggerates his proportions and primarily features the Maestro. Odette discusses how Death Watch Extreme Dungeon Mayhem has gone into hiatus and jokes about the Skull Empire's displeasure with the nickname 'Carl's Naughty Little Piggie' for Prince Maestro. Carl maintains he knows nothing about the video and reaffirms his challenge to face the prince in single combat. After the taping, Odette privately advises Carl that Mongo, if kept alive, will become a vicious fighter, though she suggests the Tummy Acher would have been an easier choice. She relays that Mordecai was displeased with her job offer and hints at a painful history between them. Odette warns Carl about the Valtay Corporation—a powerful parasitic lifeform-based corporate government currently blockading the Borant system and scheduled to run the next season. She reveals they use human bodies as hosts but prefer water-based creatures. When Carl learns that Mongo is actually a velociraptor named Mongoliensis, he realizes the creature will grow into a formidable threat. Odette concludes by cryptically mentioning a powerful class option available to high-charisma crawlers that will greatly improve survival chances but will anger someone if chosen.
