Serenity, Oh Serenity. We failed you, and I will never forget that. If it broke any of us who went against what your brother made of your body, how much worse was it for you, trapped within?

I am sorry, my friend.

You were my guiding light, a helping hand when I was worn to the bone, a kind word when it was most needed, always ready with a place of rest before your fire.

There is more than one kind of hero in this world. Those hailed by all for brave deeds that are at heart a simple matter of being in the right place, and those who slip quietly from history. As you did when Dyana Valtrith made the potion to bind Jaysun.

Yes, I read your diary, and I do not regret it, sister of my heart. It is a piece of your life that I would never have known otherwise. And that you were born Dyana Valtrith does not make you any less my sister of choice.

I have heard your words, and I will not forget. I will learn. I will endure. And I will leave you to your rest, for no matter how great my grief at the loss of you is, you were denied your rest for far to long…

Farewell, Serenity of the Unfading Light. May Death treat you well and keep you safe. May your journey into his Realm bring you peace, and may he cherish your light, as you deserve.

Be well, my Sister...


I've decided that Serenity's probably DragonFable's Nina Tucker. Much as with Nina in FMA, the hero failed her. Much as with Nina, this will never be forgotten. Much as Ed and Al were after Nina's death, we've sworn to never be so lax again.
