The Rise of Endymion by Dan Simmons - 709 pagesThe Pax is still controlling as many populations as possible with their promise of reincarnation found within their cruciform parasites. They announce a new Crusade to destroy more worlds with the election of their newest Pope. Our trio are still on the run from the Pax, hiding out on Old Earth. Aenea reveals to Raul that he is to travel on his own and she will meet him again sometime in his future. Five years of solitary hardship pass, and Raul is reunited with Aenea, who is now twenty-one years old. Their relationship shifts, as it was prophesized, as Raul becomes a prominent member of Aenea's congregation. Aenea becomes the messianic figure she was born to be to end the Pax, saving the future of the universe.
