Goodbye.

[Private to Coyo, Sirius, Dracula, Loki, Kay, Rhade, Brax.]

I need to see you. Now.

[Added after she's talked to her people in person.]

When I came here, I did not expect to be here long. I thought that it would be easy to simply graduate an inmate and then leave. I did not realize how hard it was to change the ways of mortals, and I did not realize how much worse it would be with people leaving, or being taken.

Then I worried that the Admiral may have been lying, and I stayed after Edgar graduated. I did not expect what happened next, but now I understand why.

I am done here. I am sorry to those who I have hurt, and I hope that you are able to leave here soon.

The gardens should prosper, even in my absence. I have fortified them.

I wouldn't have it any other way. [Such a weathered face. He smiles against the touch.]

And even if there's not much of her in you, I'll be happy for you, too.

Thank you, Kay. You are a good man. Do not let the barge take that from you.

[He steps back and puts his hands on her shoulders.]

I'm the most feared human in the universe. This place doesn't have the guts to match me.

[Proudly. Because he would rather that be on her mind than the pathetic look he's bordering on giving.]

[Persephone smiled at him, and she put her hands on the hands on her shoulders.]

You are one of my favorite humans as well.

Don't let us get the best of you. Some of us get fed up with ourselves, too.

[He steps back finally, and gives her a kind smile.]

I have a gift for you.

[Persephone stepped away and moved towards her garden, and she picked up one of the plants that was there. The flowers were small, and white, and iridescent, and they were shaped like stars.]

I made this. [Pride in her tone.] For you to remember me by.

Those are very pretty. [He sounds impressed as he takes them.] Are they a particular type, or are they something all their own?

They are all their own. I made them to remind you of me. They are like stars and flowers and they glow slightly under light.

They should last forever, but water them often. They enjoy water.
