Yes. Manchester has been completely destroyed.

@Holmes
Given what has become of Barghest, and the fact that she is now leading a procession of black dogs, I believe it would be best to refer to her as the Calamity of the Beast from here on.

@Holmes
Regardless, though we could take her on now, I agree that we should make our way towards the pit first.

Right! Get us out of here, double-quick! I certainly don't want to be stuck with a preposterous bill!

@Goredolf
But we will pay you in full for this service eventually!

You can count on that as surely as you can count the bruises we left you with after our battle in Olympus!

Kh... But this curse isn't meant for enemies from the outside. It's for cursing your own kind...and yourself. A curse of self-destruction.

The only way I could defend their ship from it was to absorb it myself...

Hey, now. There's still hope. I'd hold out for at least another hour before giving up.

Sure, the faeries' sins have been accumulating for fourteen thousand years.

Sure, we're now faced with both the calamities the prophecy predicted, and the corpse of a god that just popped out of the pit.

There's nothing Proper Human History can do about any of that.

But all that stuff is also cosmic fantasy only made possible by this situation.

The British Lostbelt became its own Proper Human History by virtue of turning into a Singularity...

That is, a distortion in history.

In other words, repairing that Singularity will restore history, resulting in the land of the fae never having existed.
