Awww... I was so looking forward to a heartwarming description of a family feast some years later where Akon delivers a toast to the SHs for "finally restoring the natural order of things."

HAPPY ENDING.

Upon due reflection, I have edited the story somewhat to include the final line, in accordance with your suggestion.

And never before has that sentence looked quite so horrifying.

Seconded. For some reason, it makes this version of the ending feel an order of magnitute more horrific than it otherwise would have.
