It's Finally Over, But At What Cost?

-----

Aquarina, I miss you…

A lot happened today, more than I ever thought.

So much, that it made me miss all my friends, my mom, my brother.

And Aquarina too.

I wish they would have been here with us.

If they were, things would have been so much easier.

We lost Curse and Bark, two precious friends.

And I almost became permanently crippled if it wasn't for Curse's sacrifice.

I gained new dark powers, strong but dangerous, which only made me feel more terrified of myself than anything else.

And it also made me realize the fragility of life, and how much we give everything for granted.

A day ago, I was happy to know everyone was alive and happy.

That Bark was being a proud and honorable knight, teaching the soldiers about swordsmanship and chivalry. He was someone so nice to be around with.
