The heroes had won. The multiverse was reborn and safe. But it came at a high cost. Oliver Queen, the Arrow, the Spectre, gave his life so that billions could live theirs. The residents of Earth-Prime, all the nations and leaders, came together for an hour of remembrance and mourning at the brave man who had given everything to save them.

In the hall where the heroes had once united to combat the Dominators, a group of seven individuals all united to say one final farewell to their leader and friend. In front of everyone was a glass case. In it was placed Oliver's Green Arrow suit and bow. Before that was a small pit for lighting a ritual fire of remembrance.

Kara Danvers was the first to step forward. She licked her lips and took a deep breath. The kryptonian girl looked towards the glass case with pity and sorrow.

Kara: Thanks for saving us, Oliver. The world has hope again. I have hope again. We'll never forget you.

Kara stepped back. Barry-1 was the next to step up. He cleared his aching throat, trying desperately to hold back from crying.

Barry-1: Thanks for believing in me even when I didn't. You had this way of bringing out the very best in all of us. I'm gonna miss you, man.

Sara Lance was the next to step forward

Sara Lance was the next to step forward. She thought about her life and how everything changed that night she decided to step foot on the Gambit. It was difficult to comprehend the loss of such a dear friend. 

Sara: I've lost a lot of people that I love. But I never imagined my life without you in it. You were always there for me. And now... Ollie, you changed my fate for the better. Thank you.

With a heavy heart, Sara allowed herself to say goodbye and stepped back. Kara stepped forward and folded her hands. She fired a gentle heat beam towards the fire pit. The ashes and coals inside lit up, starting a small memorial blaze in the shape of an arrowhead.
