Ender Wish

Ender Wish is the fourth episode of the second season of Fractures and the 11th episode overall. It uses THR3's song of the same name, and is centered around a huge war in the End between the Nether and End, and the fall of the End.
==Synopsis==
The Nether King sends forth a massive attack against the capital End City. Following the matriarch's last wish, the Ender Watchers challenge this fate for the sake of the future.
==Plot==
The episode begins in New Dragonspire, where Vordus enlightens the on their upcoming fate; to die in battle against Naeus and the . A begrudged Ceris announces that her only wish is to protect the Artifacts, and rallies spirit by declaring her defiance to fate. She claims that that hope lies not in the ruins of Dragonspire, but in their successor in the Overworld, organizing a plan to evacuate the artifacts off-screen.
Whilst the Watchers prepare, a slightly more corrupted Naeus - visibly changed and now bearing horns - stands before a troop of Pigmen, Wither Skeletons and Ghasts, led by Hogsworth, Kralos and Infernius respectively. Using his power, he opens a portal to the End, where the Watchers and the Endermen stand ready to fight. As Zeganirn roars, the Ender army charges, led by Ceris who uses her Greatsword to slice through a mass of Wither Skeletons, followed by Zeganirn and the Endermen, who massacre a wave of Pigmen. Behind them Vordus utilizes his staff to fire blasts of magic, and sends the Ender Dragon against the remaining Pigmen, killing them. Naeus and Hogsworth co-operate and successfully kill the rampaging Ender Dragon by stabbing it down the throat as it unleash their flame attack.
A fresh wave of Horde soldiers come charging through the portals, headed by Kralos, with Infernius leading the Ghasts above. Hogsworth manages to overpower Zeganirn, and pummels him with his shield while Vordus is fatally struck by a fireball. Ceris sees this, and tries to help him but is met by Infernius pummeling her with flames and high powered punches, breaking her mouth scarf and severely wounding her. She returns the favor using her Greatsword, Arm Blades and physical techniques, overpowering him and sending him flying into the Void. As Vordus dies, his Eye of Ender ignites the End Crystals, to which Ceris places the Artifacts inside an Ender Chest, shutting it as Naeus appears. 
Instead of letting him have the chest, Ceris valiantly battles him, but due to her wounds she is overwhelmed, stabbed in the chest and blasted with lightning, severing her immortality, then thrown to the ground. However, before hope is lost, a surviving Zeganirn leaps over both of them and takes the Chest through a portal. Struggling to get back up, Ceris is merely kicked back down by Naeus, asserting his unquestioned dominance over the End.
Rain and Lady Stella, who are still residing in the Coven Village, notice a beacon and run to meet it, and find Zeganirn gravely wounded and the End Chest lying next to him.

==Trivia==
*According to a post by Rainimator in his discord, the inspiration for Ender Wish was Total War: Warhammer 2https://discord.com/channels/478232666781646889/480261137452105749/710879686280085548.
** Various scenes in the episode were a reference to Jojo's Bizzare Adventures, most notably Ceris' melee attack and the confrontation between her and Naeus.
*Vordus' eye color were changed to purple instead of the blue they had been in previous episodes.
*This is both Ceris and Vordus' first and last Fractures speaking debuts, with Vordus played by newcomer Kestin Howard and Ceris voiced once more by Amelia Mader. 
**Amelia, the voice actor of both Lady Azura and Abigail Crysteffor, reprises her role from the Fractures Trailer.
**Vordus was originally voiced by Ben Maisonet, but had his voice actor changed for the episode.
*Ceris and Vordus once again argue about fate, mirroring their debate in the Fractures Trailer.
*This is the first episode referencing a dimension in the title, as well as the first and only episode that doesn't have the title in the lyrics.
* This is also the first episode to have sound effects throughout the whole video.
*Ender Wish has been cited by Rainimator as both the most satisfying and hardest animation to make, largely due to the armies<ref>.
