Shrine Collapsing~Epilogue



Shrine Collapsing~Epilogue is a short theme heard at the end of Metroid Prime. It is a medley of the Chozo Shrine theme, with an arrangement of the Theme of Samus. It plays after Samus defeats the eponymous creature. Escaping the Impact Crater, she races out of the collapsing Artifact Temple and summons her Gunship, which flies to her. The Chozo Shrine portion of the theme plays during this part.

After landing on her Gunship, Samus observes the scene for a moment with her helmet removed (if 75% of items were collected). As the camera pans to her face, the Theme of Samus portion begins to play. Samus closes her eyes in reflection before entering her ship and leaving Tallon IV. The Shrine Collapsing theme ends as the credits begin.

The theme can be heard here.
