A God's Rant
I have never had a close relationship with anyone in my family. Sad, yes, but true. My children were spoiled but then again, I was never that great of a father in the first place or even a good husband to my wife, Rhea. I made terrible mistakes, I messed up. I admit it freely. My father, Uranus, was not the best of fathers, but I can't put my failures on him.
Hopefully, with Hotaru, I have not repeated my mistakes.The sins of the past cannot be mended but the future is not lost. Hotaru is my future, my hope. I suffered when Mistress 9 possessed her but there was nothing I could do. I hated it, sitting there helpslessy, watching her in pain. I heard her prayers, they were more painful then Apollo's arrows in my heart. I hated Sailor Uranus and Sailor Neptune, they wanted to kill her, not out of hatred, but out of concern and mercy. But she survived nevertheless. I know Neptune and Uranus felt guilty for the actions of their senshi but it couldn't change what happened. It changed the future.
She has life full of love and laughter, family and friends. The other the outer senshi raised her, it was their atonement is some ways. In many ways, Hotaru is my atonement as well.
She carries a heavy burden; the Silence Glaive and the three words that mean the end. She is death and birth, the beginning and the end.
