After a bit of a falling out, things go from bad to worse when the Warrior Princess and Bard both take their rebound dates to the same tavern….
Happy Birthday, Xena! 14 Times The Warrior Princess Was Our Feminist Role Model
During Key to the Kingdom
Gabrielle: “Xena’s run off to help Autolycus, Meg & Joxer with something, Wanna hang out?”
Aphrodite: “Aww sweetpea, I thought you’d never ask.”
Oh, what a magnificent creature!
Xena – Wonder Woman Headcanon
Gabrielle, while understanding Xena’s final act of redemption (staying dead at the end of the series), is heartbroken. Though she soldiers on, the pain in her heart and the empty spot in her soul plague her every day.
The gods (remaining gods? God? I don’t remember what shape the pantheon is in at the last episode) take pity on her and, as a reward for her great heroism, faith in humanity through everything she’s seen, and as an acknowledgement of Xena’s redemption, grant Gabrielle a child, born of “the merging of these two great souls”.
Gabrielle raises the child among the Amazons, who she eventually comes to lead. At an unspecified time, the amazons retreat from the world.
Gabrielle’s (spiritual?) bloodline remains royalty right up into the 1900′s. People are named after old heroes from time to time, as per usual. One of Gabrielle’s royal line is named Hippolyta, who (of course) has a daughter. Diana.
Thus, Diana is Xena and Gabrielle’s great great great (x number of greats) grandchild.
Gabby gotta have another child somewhere because Janice is a descendant. I like the idea. Was it Aphrodite that granted her a child?
When Gabrielle became an Archangel. Not an angel. ARCHANGEL. Proving that she is meant to fight to protect and defend. Proving it is her Way. It was her Way all along. Not the Way of Love. Not the Way of the Warrior. The Way of Friendship. The Way of the Protector and Defender.
