Selected Scenes From the End of the World

The season 3 finale is framed by narration by Henry Colfax, detailing the collapse of the world our characters knew into what we know will become the Fecundity.
== Summary ==
=== Bok-Hui and Rhett ===
Bok-Hui and Rhett start out at Bok-Hui's family home. Bok-Hui is doing seemingly domestic things with her mother, making matching jackets for her and Rhett, but embedded with Kevlar. Rhett is struggling to deal with Atalanta's death at the hands of Muninn and the unexplained absence of Freya.
Dennis' conspiracy research makes him the first to notice the breaking news that Tabitha Keswick has launched an all-out legal assault on Sol Invictus, exposing its supernatural paramilitary operations. He explains to everyone what has happened, and Bok-Hui and Rhett can finally explain their involvement with Sol Invictus.
In the coming days, Bok-Hui decides to bring the entire extended family to her biological father's villa. 
While working in the garden, Joe is stung by an enormous black bee-like insect that remind them of Kathleen Lithgow's Nephalim transformation. Despite being stung, Joe is unable to see the insect. Bok-Hui traps the bug, and they quickly learn that only people with supernatural gifts are able to see the insects.
Rhett calls his memaw and tells her to go outside to look for bugs, and she can see them. He sends her to the reservation to warn the relations and warns her not to let the bugs sting them.
Bok-Hui receives a postcard showing a rocky beach in New England. The postcard mentions the bugs and invites Bok-Hui to the shore. The card is signed Sapphire, which Bok-Hui knows is Allison's dancer name. The lighthouse matches a card Freya had sent, with an address and key attached. They prepare to go to the shore.
Bok-Hui and Rhett travel to Maine, witnessing the slow collapse of society. Stores are sold out of goods, and people are speculating about the end of the world. They arrive at the cottage by the shore. Bok-Hui goes in to investigate and leaves Rhett outside. She spots a man at the kitchen table, reviewing files about forest trails and a small island called Queensmouth. Bok-Hui confronts the man with gun drawn, and the man does not respond. Rhett comes in after seeing the man through their psychic bond. 
The strange man is nonplussed, and says he is "in search of the root of an old story". Bok-Hui asks why the people who were there before had left, and the man says they fled because he was more powerful than them. Bok-Hui shoots him in the head, but he stands up again and reassembles himself. He sprouts clawed hands that extend mono-molecular flagella that slice up the room, and identifes himself as the Eighth Expression. 
=== Theseus and Diana ===
Theseus, wielding the Lance of Olyndicus, attacks a Sol Invictus black site prison and makes short work the guards. He frees Diana from weeks of Sol Invictus torture, and the two depart.
=== Granville Moore ===
Granville sets up a base of industrial operations in Wehrum, Pennsylvania, an abandoned Rust Belt town. He begins research on Clarent, which he stole from Walter Marchand, hoping to determine its strengths and weaknesses to learn how it destroyed Excalibur. He learns that Clarent draws its power from betrayal, but that the ability to destroy another bearer weapon is not limited to Clarent. 
During the course of his research, Granville is contacted by an emissary of the Yellow Court. The emissary reveals Nadra's plan to Granville, including the fact that Nephalim blood is being spread across the globe by insects she released. The emissary offers Granville power to assist as an ally against Nadra, and confirms that Granville will maintain his free will. Granville is drawn in to the madness and chaos of the Yellow Sign, becoming the King in Amaranth.
Clarent is abandoned and left in Wehrum, Pennsylvania.
=== Joey Matheson ===
The Yellow Court's Jester and Master-at-Arms raid a Sol Invictus facility, ordered by the Yellow King to kill Muninn. The Jester tricks the Master-at-Arms into moving into an eldritch nullification chamber, and sends a swarm of zombies to force him. The Jester activates the nullification chamber, then rips his mask (and face) off to free himself from the Yellow King's control. Joey Matheson, now undead, reveals that he had backed up his soul in an anime body pillow phylactery. Joey sets off with his zombie army to "find something better to do".
=== Jack Kincaid ===
Having fallen through one of Muninn's portals, Jack winds up at the Last House, speaking with Henry Colfax. Colfax advises him that he is there for a job interview.
=== Freya Benton ===
Freya, having repaired Faris, has been wandering the Fecundity for centuries. She brings lost knowledge to the remnants of humanity, guiding the recovery of human civilization, steering people toward kindness and equality whenever possible. Freya is approached by Ama, who gives her an invitation to dinner with Henry Colfax. Colfax tells her she must cross the sea, where she will be given Excalibur and is to keep it in trust for Mitch Hook. However, she must first use Excalibur to finally kill Granville Moore, who sleeps in the heart of his nation of vampires. Colfax warns that Granville could awaken and unite the vampire kingdoms to take over the world.
Freya spends years preparing. She develops the technology she needs to cross the sea, building a harness and carriage and the means to capture and tame a giant flying jellyfish-like monster, then departs for the City of Night.
=== Nadra Al-Hashim ===
Nadra acknowledges her defeat but has not given up, despite four of the Eyes of Tiamat being hidden from her. She enumerates their enemies: the Author, the Crow, Autumn, "that which seeks birth from the corpse of the solar emperor", and "that which breathes death". She changes into a monstrous form, parts human, bull, lion, and sea serpent, and empowers her ten numbered expressions. She sends 2, 3, 4, and 5 to seek the hidden Eyes of Tiamat. Expressions 6, 7, 8, 9, and 10 are sent to eliminate Nadra's enemies, each specifically designed to kill one. 
The First Expression is Darren Feldman. In full Tammuz form, Feldman is sent to pursue his own aims.
=== "The Bravest Witch" by Ellie Jackson ===
Henry Colfax describes the contents of The Bravest Witch, a book in his store that he did not write. At sunset, The Lady of Day and the Lord of Night work together to end the Hecate, putting Kiera and Hailee to rest, and using the blade of Autumn's Ending to sever the mantle of the Maiden from Ellie Jackson. Ellie departs with Ashley.
=== Mitch Hook, Torc, and Kaelar ===
Mitch, Torc, Kaelar, and 733 make their way to the coast to find a ship that will take them across the ocean. They make their way to a town that has a dock that seems suitably large. They discover none other than a drunken Captain Bas, who agrees to take them across the sea in the Inconsiderate.
