While Gavin was in the bizarre dream of an altered Sleepy Hollow, his adversary, Brom Bones, described that he was an almost exact replica of Leon Lucas. Out of sheer mockery, he summarized Leon as a reject living with mental illness. In order to avoid execution, he volunteered to become a part of the militia during the American Revolution. Leon was a soldier who met a Hessian during a stormy night, and in his weakened state, he managed to shoot off the trooper’s head via a loaded cannon. He perished at around the same time on Halloween night.
In the differed universe, this was the anniversary of the Midnight Ride, and Gavin was able to finish his enemy who later became the Headless Horseman. But in reality, his tombstone still exists with the same encryption, though Leon’s adversary was just a generic figure.
During spring break, Team Witness revisited Sleepy Hollow while a funeral for Daniel Reynolds took place. Sophie replaced Reyes as the new sheriff, while she took over the head of the FBI’s Westchester branch. Gavin came across his unusual replica of himself, and as they made contact, Leon’s spirit entered his descendant’s body causing intense headaches, a blackout and weakness, and also possession. Leon was a troubled essence that was lost in time and afraid of accepting the Final Judgement. Thanks to the encouragement and support of Ichabod and others, Leon eventually received a new light. He gradually accepted his fate after how much he was labeled as a hero, and opened the door for his descendant to do the same. And it was no doubt he’d end up dying peacefully from his valiant deeds and his legacy would live on from Gavin.
Leon promised to look over him and his friends as he’d also reunite with his family and meet up with other fallen idols like George Washington. After over two centuries, he finally found peace and passed on many of his greatest attributes to him, including the sacred virtue of Fortitude. He was later seen in the afterlife watching over his predecessor, offering him support and some prayers during the last stand against Lucifer; and they succeeded.
