Real movements do typically grant instant happy endings, and as Tierney predicts 'she's the one who is going to change everything.' Tierney's part in this story has come to an end, if its her daughter who will change the county, not her. And more realistic if we're being honest.

It's a far more tragic, beautiful and poetic ending if she does die though (even though I'm choosing to believe she doesn't haha). OR it could jump back to where we follow her mom, since she's the Usurper. OR the sequel may jump 16 years into the future to where we meet Tierney's daughter.
