From your comments to Amadeus' answer

The simple fact that those two characters even exist is basically there to confirm that yes, indeed, you finally got the true ending.

In that case, these are clearly QuestGivers - even if they don't specifically set the mc on a quest, they save him at the beginning so he can triumph and at the end they show up to confirm his success.

I get the feeling people won't care about these characters

but why do you think they should? Are these characters you want people to invest in, or should they just be invested in your main character? Maybe the mc's reaction to these two appearing again is much more important than who they are and you just need to be sure the last chapter is still focused on mc.
