The example felt more to me like the end of the campaign, or at least that part of the saga, like the end of the book in a modern fantasy Trilogy/Pentology/Dodecology - this is the last example in the book, after all. A final blow-out fight that not everyone survives. The dead are remembered, new characters are created, and a new book is started with a different bad guy. Of course a bit of "post-saga chatter" by the players would have helped with that impression.
