At the end of the struggle, with King Thordan's defeat and the loss of the azure dragoon at the claws of a reborn Nidhog and a dear friend death avenged. Uki returns upon dragon's back to Ishgard, looking like she just crawled out of the 7th hell, she returned to mend her wounds. The battle is not over, but there is a faint time between the now and the imminent attack that Nidhog's shade is preparing. Before she journies forth, to aid in new alliances and discoveries of lost friends, the Count wishes but a moment to talk with Uki, seeing her in that state he gives her a present. One handpicked by her beloved friend. A gift fit for a hero. With it a boon from the count himself, noticing Uki's once beautifully cared for hair now in rough cuts, he calls forth a kind and eccentric aesthetician that he might give her a better look. "For a new beginning!" the count chaimed. Uki's eyes swelled up with tears upon glancing at herself in the mirror. "He would not have wanted you to be in this state... So please, look to the future as my son looked to you. -with hope!". Uki pulled the Count into a hug. "Thank you!"
