To summarize it briefly:
After the Titan's hood breaks, the oracle's thoughts are gone (her mind is blank). Prome notices that the Titan is following a life-sustaining program and will devour the people and destroy the den, and tells Delos to restrain it. She tells him to remember that their goal isn't to completely destroy the enemy giant. Their goal is to stop the Titans' activity as vanguards of the Olympus gods, so that they go back to their original role, to be the flesh of Gaia.
To disable the giant, every single one of its cells should be hit at once. In order to do so, 70% of Goura's nectar is converted to nitro-nectar. IGNITION, and they're off to the sky. ICARUS FALL! Titan neutralized.
Prome tells Delos not to care about the battle below, as their goal has been reached. But Delos intervenes anyway, and as Goura dematerializes, he begs the Scarabae not to kill the Hu. They're outraged of course, asking him how he could say so given what was done to them, etc. He repeats his plea. Ogun grabs him and asks him if he really is a dog of the empire after all. But as Delos stands up, his scars are shown. The wounds he got as Goura remain as scars on his body, for the two are one. Prome explains that his brain has converted the damage he received as Goura to his body, leaving those scars.
The Scarabae don't care, their bitterness and desire for revenge is too strong. Delos is resigned, but Prome intervenes telepathically (in a way very reminiscent of Sonia) and addresses all of them. She tells them that in a hundred years, all of this desert will be a living and flourishing area. It's because by "planting" the Titan in the earth, the land will grow rich life. Prome can manipulate the memory of the empire's soldiers, so that all of the information regarding their location will be deleted, ensuring they can never come back there again. She says that if they accept Delos' wish, it will happen. She tells them to choose: revenge about the past or prosperity in the future. And somehow, despite the bloodlust, a child's cry manages to finally defuse the situation. Delos, tears in his eyes, thanks Prome for what she did.
Later, as they watch the Hu convoy depart, Prome says that when the soldiers will come back to the empire, they'll have forgotten all about the desert, and will instead feel a very powerful fear about it. They talk a bit and Prome asks why life is so important to Delos, things like that. She tells him that since lives are so important to him, he wants to let more lives exist by destroying the Olympus gods. He on the other hand tells her that she's the best goddess to him for all his life, which prompts her to retreat a bit shyly to her ball-form. Then it's back full circle and their enigmatic pose and innuendo-filled dialogue from the beginning now makes sense as they resume their journey, walking towards the distant sun.
----------
I have to say, it's quite an amazing way to end the series, though it was mostly expected, and though we've got one more episode to go as a bonus (which was a last minute decision apparently). I imagine (i.e. hope) it will shed some light on the gods of Olympus, Gaia and the Titans, and maybe on how Prome and Delos first met, but that's probably asking a bit much for a late bonus.
Anyway, I think this series if anything reaffirms how great of a storyteller Miura is. It's really humbling to me to witness his talent. And I really like what he's done with Delos too. He really is a different character from Guts, it's almost fascinating to me. They're so close yet so far.
