Believing Nafaryus to be responsible for his love interest's death (Losing Faythe), Gabriel is convinced by Arhys to join him in his plan to attack the Empire's fortress (Whispers on the Wind). They manage to destroy the NOMACS, break in Nafaryus' castle and defeat him. Right after that, Arhys knocks Gabriel down, locks him and Nafaryus in the dungeons and autoproclaims himself as the new emperor. Turns out Arhys was the real villain the whole time and the NOMACS were the only thing keeping the Empire safe from his tyranny and his brain-washing music. He was actually Faythe's murderer and used Gabriel's rage to make him join his side, only to clear the path for a coup d'etat. The remaining Ravenskill survivors rescue the two prisoners and Nafaryus lead them to rebuild the NOMACS in order to take Arhys down and reclaim the throne (Hymn of a Thousand Voices). They attack Arhys and finally manage to kill him, but Nafaryus is fatally wounded during the final battle. Just before dying, he chooses Gabriel as heir to the throne (Our New World). With no threat against the Empire anymore, the NOMACS are dismantled (Power Down). The Ravenskill rebels, upon realizing they were being manipulated by a fake leader the whole time, join the empire and serve as Gabriel's loyal army. Peace finally rules the land and, to everyone's astonishment, The Great Northern Empire and The Ravenskill Rebel Militia finally become one (Astonishing).
