It does. But /finished/ can mean "complete, fully created" or it can
mean "ended," and I think canon has shown it leaning more toward the
latter sense, so it's what I first thought. What you said isn't wrong,
but I could only disambiguate based on my previous knowledge of the book.

<p>It does. But <i>finished</i> can mean "complete, fully created"
or it can mean "ended," and I think canon has shown it leaning
