"Hope and rebirth always begin with the end."
Many encounters and farewells existed for a reason and sometimes the meaning behind them was found out late - or that was what Grace Wilson was destined to live with the moment she was born with the ink engraved neatly on her wrist.
Her naïve self believed that those words would be her guide to find her soulmate. However, when elders gave her the piece of truth, she noticed that she could never love without a fear and never say farewell without a worry to be able to see that person again.
Because the ink on her flesh was not a guide for her to find her soulmate - not quite. It was the exact words she would hear from the right one before she lost him for good; her soulmate's last words to her.
Take care, Miss Grumpy.

Aftermath | Part III
"What Remains When the World Burns. Is What We Fight To Protect." PART III | The war is over. The world has thrived in the quiet solitude of peace. What survived was scattered, scarred, and aching, yet from the wreckage rose something unexpected: a fragile kind of beauty. Cities rebuilt from ash. Lives stitched back together with silence and hope. It isn't the world they lost, but it's something-something someone had to sacrifice everything for, just to make it hold. And in that stillness, in the soft breath of what was given up, people have learned to live again. To love. To hope. But beneath that silence, something always stirs- a shadow of what was, a reckoning long delayed, a spark that never truly went out. As old ghosts rise and the cost of survival begins to surface, the final threads of destiny pull tight. This is no new beginning. It's the last stand of what remains. This is survival. This is defiance. This is aftermath.Complete
