I believe if there had been another episode or a movie, we would have seen her brought back. Since we did not, we have to assume some things based on what we know. For example, during the span of Xena's life that we did see, we know that Ares was still around, he was not trapped in the Tomb of the Scrolls. Ares could only be released by a descendant of Xena, using the chakram to strike the Eye of Hephaestus. While this does not prove that Xena was the one who trapped him in the tomb, it is a reasonable assumption. Also, the broken chakram found in the tomb was the original. We know Xena fused it into the new one, so it would seem to be possible that she had something to do with the old chakram being in the tomb.

What kept Ares in the tomb was the door formed from metal made by Hephaestus and the Eye of Hephaestus. Xena had access to the eye in Fist Full of Dinars and Keys to the Kingdom. Did she maybe take it for her own use if needed? She killed Hephaestus, so he could not have made any more, so the one in the tomb had to be one that already existed.

The hairs of Xena and Gabrielle used for the clones were found in the tomb, so both had to have been there at some point. We know they were reincarnated, but does the reincarnated bodies contain the original Xena and Gabrielle dna or that of the host bodies? The host bodies having their own dna would make more sense as the soul is what is being reincarnated and I assume it contains no dna. So, we can assume the hairs containing the dna were from the original Xena and Gabrielle. Thus, dead Xena would have come back and at some point, she, with Gabrielle at her side were in the tomb, left the broken chakram and the scrolls.

How's this for a hypothetical? Xena comes back from the dead(however you wish it). She and Gabrielle lived many years, happy and continuing the Greater Good. Ares and Aphrodite being the only Olympia Gods left, Ares decided he must be King of the World and continue his evil ways of the past. Xena knows only she can stop him, but she does not have any way to kill him. She comes up with the plan to use the eye to trap him in the tomb. She and Gabrielle lure him there and a tremendous battle ensues among the three.

Mel's words upon entering the tomb area..."Wow! Some great battle was fought here. I don't know why, but I get the feeling that this was the site of some titanic struggle between-- good and evil. The battle ended with the chakram broken and both Xena and Gabrielle killed by Ares. He buries them there. Gabrielle knowing they might not survive had taken her scrolls there.

So, this would explain how Ares was trapped in the tomb, the broken chakram was found in the tomb, the scrolls were found in the tomb and the hairs for the clones were found in the tomb.

So, cyrene

So now, instead of me HOPING that Xena somehow came back, I know!

Yes, she did.

Alright Jackie, I didn't follow half of that but for a minute there I thought you were going to totally disprove her theory and I was gonna hunt ya down!!!

Well read it again, it's a good theory. Disprove her theory, oh please. I brought her back myself in Subtext Central. I don't change my mind just because I change forums. I believe, I believe!!!!!!!

Read my fan fiction "Waking up With the Conqueror" and you will see that FIN never really happened. Well it happened but what was done was also undone

But I don't know if I like the thought of poor Gabs being trapped in a tomb waiting to die!
