DEVELOPMENT: You never quite expected Yeleth to negotiate with you in good faith—certainly not after how she manipulated the powerful Blood Lord Stavros Nightcrescent—but it seems you underestimated the lengths she would go to bind you into a subordinate contract. After communing with the truly vile creatures of the Revenant Court, however, you managed to avoid becoming Yeleth’s puppet on the Material Plane.
Instead, you promised the vampire elder nothing more than you could deliver, and in exchange she infused you with the power of Hell itself. You suspect you even earned her admiration for your fearlessness and your commitment to diabolic subterfuge. When you leave Mechitar heading back toward first Katapesh, then the Grand Lodge, you view life through a fiery lens you never knew existed.
You’re a force to be reckoned with. And you serve only yourself.
SCENARIO REWARD:
Each player chooses 1 of her Pathfinder Society Adventure Card Guild characters. That character may add a boon that has the Corrupted trait from each Hell’s Vengeance Character Deck to her deck box and gains the power “Once per turn, you may ignore the Corrupted trait on a card.”
Each player grants 1 of her Pathfinder Society Roleplaying Guild characters a ranger’s favored enemy (+2) benefits against undead for the duration of one adventure. This bonus increases to +3 against vampires, and it does not stack with other favored enemy bonuses. Note this reward on your Chronicle sheet, and cross it off when used.

Ezren had done it. He had bargained with Yeleth, without bowing to her command. He knew his value, and he wasn't going to undersell himself, his soul. No, he had earned this great exchange - such power flows through his veins like never before. He laughs, recognizing his situation as a natural extension of his philosophy.
Of course it was. Gods, Devils - whatever Powers that Be that care to make themselves known - all have one thing in common. They desire dominion over mortals. They demand tribute, prayer; they lay restrictions and expectations, offer rewards and promise punishments. They think themselves the puppeteers of Golarion. But their drive, their desires, betray a great secret.
'They need us more than we need them.'
The Gods fight over mortal souls out of need - but there is no requirement to the inverse, except which is manufactured by priests and sycophants, no matter how noble their intentions.
Now, Ezren's goals are clear. He has the power, he has the drive. He will educate the masses to throw off their self-imposed submission to the Powers, tutor them in their own worth, their own strengths. He will fuel their ambitions, ignite their inspirations. And will destroy those who move to block his progress.
A sudden flash of realisation: Ezren's father was not to blame for Ezren lost years.
How could he be? He merely chose to take his fate into his own hands, and it was the Temple of Abadar that punished him for it. So much of Ezren's life, decades in fighting them, in standing up for his father. Yes, his father was 'guilty', but of what charge? Of heresy! Of thinking himself better than the Temple!
And? He was better than the Temple! So is Ezren!
Ezren once thought that the road to salvaging his family, his name, his life, laid in proving his father's innocence. Now he knows better. He does not have to prove his father's innocence to the masses, but to expose the Temple's guilt. On their shoulders lies thousands of years of twisted truths, misguided followers, exploited souls. Ezren will be the one to put a stop to it.
His father was right all along. And Ezren is truly his father's son.

I leave it up to the party whether Duel or Deal is Ezren's 'canonical' ending.
Ezren Duels with Yeleth, and shatters his staff in the final fight to diminish her to almost nothing. Returning to Golarion, he moves on from his obsessions, studies further with Cordelia, and continues to serve the Society with a newfound sense of duty. The adventures with Zarlova, Hayato, Radovan and Vika have softened his harsh judgements, and he has learned tolerance and patience. Perhaps above all, he has relearned how to hope.
Alternatively...
Ezren Deals with Yeleth. He sees his past through new lens, with new insights. His independence burns fierce, his hatred of the Gods fuelled. His travels have shown him that nobody is truly free but the powerful, and even those that carry freedom within reach often relinquish it to undeserving Powers. Ezren is sure not to repeat their mistakes, and his growing contempt fuels a new personal crusade to change the world, sharing his philosophy, his knowledge, and spreading his heretical views with all who will listen. He leaves the Society, and returns home to Absalom where he will begin to disseminate his philosophical writings and find sympathisers among the population there.
