Paradise Violated
Stubborn to the last, you continue to fight the abominations, having an interesting last conversation with Salo as you reload what is surely your last clip.
"Salo they're going to remember this day of what we've done! Our sacrifice won't be in vain! The Empire will find this and use the power within to destroy its enemies!"
"Yes! And our bones will be found, and we'll be remembered as the ones who paved the way and our names will live on forever!" Salo, replies.
This last bit of wishful thinking of "immortality" after your death at least makes you feel better before you feel a tentacle plunge through your stomach and another wrap around your head, popping it off like a dandelion.
Fortunately you weren't alive to see what happened afterwards
First off your bones wouldn't have been found, the abominations ate everything. So your "sacrifice" wouldn't have been known by the Empire at all, even if they had found the Xont structure, which they didn't.
Thanks to you, wiping out the nearby Lizard village as well as killing some of abominations in the structure (and severely wounding several of them) you made things a lot easier for the small Elojin team that had been lurking nearby. After it's pretty clear that your team was destroyed, they took the opportunity to take advantage of the situation, mopping up the now weakened abominations inside and thoroughly looting the place.
In typical Elojin fashion, they end up using the technology to keep everyone fighting each other and maintain the "status quo" except with them in an even better position than before, so they aren't attacked as often. Effectively becoming the "puppet masters" of the galaxy.
The Elojin was right, you didn't win.
