The story can only be resolved when someone wins the game, as evidence in Rainsford's visit to Zaroff's chamber in the story's conclusion. When Zaroff congratulates Rainsford on his win. Rainsford tells Zaroff that the game is not over yet. Zaroff agrees—whoever wins the last battle would sleep in his bed, the loser be fed to the dogs. The story ends with Rainsford remarking on the quality of the bed he slept in that night.
