A Sister's Oath

[Jess]

They told me you fought hard.



They told me you were a hero after Pyrin's own shadow.
That you died so everyone could escape the Shadowlands safely.
I was devastated when I heard the news, it had always just been us, you and I.
For years after I wandered the wilds, learning the songs of the birds, honoring the ways of nature.

A pilgrimage of grief, fueled by my sorrow.

It was as if Nemea herself were speaking to me through the animals and trees.
Talking with a language my ears could not recognize, but my spirit welcomed.
I became attuned, I learned to understand.

The natural order needed to be protected at all costs.

I miss you brother, and you'll never be forgotten.
You taught me what it means to be a descendant of the Founding.
If you were here, you would lead the Sentinels not I.
I only hope to guide them in honor of your memory.

One day we will meet again, but until that time comes...

I stand guard, a shield.

Just like my big brother.
