A bit later, Alec passionately kisses Magnus (to the latter's shock) in front of a huge crowd of
Downworlders and Shadowhunters, including his parents and friends, finally revealing his
sexuality and relationship with Magnus. At the end of the book, Magnus is seen off to the side,
speaking with Clary. Afterwards, true to his promise, Alec finally introduces Magnus to his
parents. In the epilogue of this book, Magnus can be seen talking to Tessa Gray of the Infernal
Devices series; she is the girl in the white dress by the tree that Clary somehow recognizes but
isn't sure how.
