HEARTFORGE - avante en garde (Session 4)
You are in the heart of a massive forge. In front of you are tools, and your objective is clear - to use them to channel the strength of your heart and create.
What are you creating? Who can say. Only you - and only you'll know if - and when, it's good enough. The stories before you are not yours right now, but you'll make them yours soon enough.
And you will survive.

Re: DISCUSSION
It was not for his crimes. [ though there is despair and loathing in her, at that ]
It was for what he was. —What he is. One of the Solar Exalted, which our world's propaganda calls the Solar Anathema. Based on what I saw in that memory, he is one of... well, the derogatory term is "the Forsaken."
....The point is: a Wyld Hunt against Solars would certainly symbolize the defeat of "gold." Most hunts ended in victory for the hunters, after all.
Re: DISCUSSION
...But he's just a dumb dog accountant.

Ah. I was so... preoccupied, I do not remember who was there to witness my... reaction to his arrival.
And I do not think the version of him that was here with the visiting units spoke of our history to any but me. Perhaps our Hades truly is different from that Miura Hiroto who—
[ the words catch in her throat, but there's already a feeling of sorrow so overwhelming—
(it's the same feeling that probably leaked past just her conversation with Shirasagi, earlier) ]

—ah.
Perhaps, if I'm to answer this, I might as well forge something from it.

Re: DISCUSSION
Oh.
Re: DISCUSSION
Please...
...do not hate him [ "...as I do" ].
Re: DISCUSSION
...Here--at least--people should get to be who they are, not who they were...if they wanna put in that effort--if they wanna make that change.
That's...what I wanna think.
[Perhaps it is wishful thinking; plenty of people have dismissed it as such. But even as she feels shame for being so childish, she does want it to be true]
Re: DISCUSSION
[ Her grief has a weight to it—like a heavy curtain she has to push aside in order to speak at all.
It's not so hard, so long as she doesn't let herself dwell on it. It's just that, as soon as she actually does— ]
I told Shrike... that to believe otherwise was a coward's way out. That if she had done great harm—and she had done great harm—then she had a greater obligation to not give into despair. To keep striving for something better.
So I... will not make myself a hypocrite.
But I also know that... the day is coming when I must remember my death for myself.
[ and like. try to not go completely feral in the process, or something. ]
Re: DISCUSSION
...Yeah. Still sucks, though.
[...the sentiment is honest, at least,,,]
