Shockingly in the pit they discover the corpses of Kirie’s parents and an ancient city completely covered with spiral patterns. Both of them embrace each other, and as the result of the curse their bodies start to twist. Their bodies wrapped together. Kirie notes that the curse ended at the same time it began.
