Inherit the Stars.After Asseylum gives her speech, the Orbital Knights, now in a state of confusion, decide to call off their full-scale attack until they can figure out what is going on. Realizing that the battle is lost, Slaine orders the Moon Base to be evacuated and to surrender to the UFE. Lemrina is put onto a transport ship with the rest of the noncombatants, while Harklight and the rest of Slaine's forces defy Slaine's orders and continue to battle UFE troops. Eventually, they are all completely destroyed in one final, doomed charge against the Deucalion; they are shredded by the Deucalion's close-range anti-air autocannons. Seeing that his forces are still battling and that he has nothing more to lose at this point, Slaine boards the Tharsis and engages Inaho in one-on-one combat. Both pilots manage to inflict heavy damage on each other, with the Tharsis' precognitive ability damaged beyond use with Slaine declaring that he "no longer has any need for the future", and Inaho is physically pained by straining his cybernetic eye's processing capabilities. In the end, Inaho narrowly emerges victorious, but as Tharsis begins to fall into Earth's atmosphere, Inaho saves Slaine's life by grabbing the Tharsis and stabilizing its descent. A pair of children (the same pair from Season 1, Episode 1) in a dilapidated urban area mistake the streaks of light in the sky from Inaho and Slaine's descent for shooting stars. An injured Slaine attempts to crawl away from the wreckage of Tharsis, but Inaho holds him at gunpoint. Smiling, Slaine looks up at Inaho and taps his forehead twice. After the screen cuts to black, it us revealed that some time later, a formal peace agreement has been signed between Earth and Vers, including a trade agreement where Vers would provide Earth with Aldnoah technology in return for natural resources, with Asseylum activating the first Aldnoah Drive delivered to Earth. Asseylum has married Count Klancain in order to solidify her hold on the Vers throne. Slaine is officially blamed for the assassination attempt against Asseylum and the war; he is reported as having been killed. In reality, Slaine is being held in a high-security secret prison facility. When Inaho appears in the prison to converse with Slaine, Slaine demands to know why Inaho spared his life. Inaho reveals that he was following Asseylum's wishes, as the favor she asked of Inaho in Episode 22 while he was unconscious was to "save Slaine". This causes Slaine to realize Asseylum still cares for him, resulting in Slaine crying as Inaho leaves the prison. The series ends with Asseylum, Inaho, and Slaine smiling as they look forward to the future.
