Hard Choices

Hard Choices is the thirty-ninth and the final mission in Far Cry 3.
==Mission==
The mission begins as Jason exits the helicopter that he and Riley used to escape the Privateers. The brothers arrive at Citra's Temple after Dr. Earnhardt informed them that Jason's other friends had been kidnapped by the Rakyat. Upon entering, Rakyat warriors are seen taking Riley away. Jason asks Citra where Riley is being taken. Upon turning to Citra, she blows a glowing dust onto Jason. This dust causes Jason to fall unconscious. He awakens in a stone room, tied at the wrists, to Citra saying that he is the true warrior. She then leaves into another room. Jason frees himself and follows Citra. He enters a fiery path surrounded by darkness, with Rakyat warriors kneeling on either side of the path and old ruins visible in the background. Jason is also holding the knife that he retrieved earlier for Buck, but then returned to Citra. The knife appears to be glowing blue, then into fire. After walking several meters, a burning Liza appears, shouting at Jason about his tattoos and how he thinks they make him special. She then grabs Jason by the arms and burns off his Tatau. Jason then drops the knife. Liza is seen again shortly thereafter with the face of the Ink Monster. At the end of the path is Citra, who is kneeling down and holding the knife, which is now glowing blue. When Jason takes the knife, he awakens from the hallucination to find that he is holding the knife to a subdued Liza's neck. Jason must then make a decision to either save his friends or join Citra.
==Save Your Friends==
If you choose to save your friends, Jason cuts the rope Liza is tied to, who unties Daisy, who then unties the rest of the group. Citra pleads for him to join her, saying that he cannot go back and that the jungle is his true home, adding "they will move on, have kids and boring lives". Jason says he's done and there will be no blood. Dennis angrily runs in with a knife and berates Jason for "betraying" Citra's goddess love and yelling that she saved him and everyone else in the tribe. He lunges at Jason with the knife, but Citra suddenly jumps in front of him as Jason backs away, causing Dennis to accidentally stab her in the stomach. Jason lays her on the ground and apologizes to her rejecting her love, then rests her head sideways while she dies. Dennis begins to weep and screams for her not to die while apologizing for accidentally stabbing her. The scene cuts to a view of one of Rook Island's beaches while Jason says his ending monologue:
The boat Daisy was fixing is seen leaving the island as Jason condemns what he had to become to save his friends as the credits roll.
==Join Citra==
If you choose to join Citra, Jason will slit Liza's throat. The rest of the group will also be killed, Liza's death is seen normally, but you can see one frame of Riley's death if you watch very closely. Citra will then tell the Rakyat warriors to "Prepare the Tatau". The screen fades to black. Jason is then seen having sexual intercourse with Citra. Upon finishing, Citra stabs Jason in the chest. As Jason bleeds out, Citra reassures her chosen mate that she will give birth to their child, who will command the destiny of the Rook Islands and the Rakyat people as the 'Perfect Warrior'. As the screen is fading out as Jason dies, Citra tells Jason he is a warrior and should die a warrior and whispers "You won" right before the game ends. The credits then roll.
