Unexpectedly, in the end, the gangs/guilds that they thought would last forever fell apart. Only the army of the country can go to Kosovo to burn houses, and the power they have worked so hard for is passing by inexplicably. The world is changing rapidly in a way that they don't understand at all. It turns out that there are no rules and meanings in the universe. The only fair and understandable things turned out to be aging and loneliness.
