[It was almost a relief, to hear about so many people going home recently, even as more were due to arrive.

It was too sad to mention, knowing that one of those people was Professor Nebilim. That she wasn't really returning to anything. Just to the completion of a sad tale of a boy who thought he should be able to do everything.

And now Nephry is lonely. She has been, off and on, for a while; she feels it especially strongly today. At first she tried cleaning the kitchen but now she's sitting there, chin against her hands, staring at the table. With almost half of the house away or out of commission...things are quiet.

In the silence, she turns to her journal for a while.]


What do you believe happens...when you die?

I hope you'll get the answers you're looking for, then. And maybe I'll think of a way to answer too.

...That's not right. Even if there isn't something that comes after you die... That's not right. If you leave some sort of impact on the world... If even one person remembers you or the legacy you left behind... You never stop living. The ideals and dreams you held will carry on forever, somewhere.

That, I truly believe.

It's a lesson I had to learn on my own, so... I think I get why not many people might think that way. I regretted that my dad died without me really having a chance to know him. But as I learned what kind of man he was... The legacy he'd left behind in the hearts of the people of Lhant... It seemed he wasn't truly gone.

I agree. I... Well, when I was growing up, I really kind of hated him. But now that I know what kind of man he was, I can only hope to be the kind of leader he was.
drawnbythesword: (Not too sure about that...)

Ahh... Thanks, Nephry. I hope that's true.
