At the end of Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet, the Prince says:
"A gloomy peace this morning
The sun for sorrow will not show his head:
Go hence, to have more talk of these sad things;
Some shall be pardon'd and some punished:
For never was a story of more woe
Than this of Juliet and her Romeo." [Exits]
No specific answer is given. It is a rhetorical question. It is up to the reader of the story to come to their own conclusion(s), if any.
