REquiem

DEspite everything, We still remain. EVen if our failures continue to haunt us, we will continue to exist. SOmetimes to exist is all you can do.

MAy god have mercy on her soul.

SHe has become something else, out of Our control. WE have failed yet again, in ways not entirely knowable.

SOmething is not correct.

SHe is proving to be a very strange saint to handle. WE cannot see what she says, but We predict something is wrong with her.

WE are dealing with an unprecedented situation.

IT was unwise for her to confront her family, the best course of action was to simply run away. BUt this              is not one We can solve easily. WE have no options at the moment, nor any ideas on what We can do.

THe revised list of Saints.

COlette is still not to be trusted. AN odd person to take caution around. BRidget was the first, but she was too brash for her own good. HEr hubris gives her boundless confidence JOyce was hopeful, but her many curiosities stripped her of a Body. SHe roams in an ethereal form. ROse was kind, but had a strange obsession with the flowers sharing her name. ONe day she disappeared without a trace. AUdrey is new, and brimming with potential. POssesses a fondness for cats and friends. PLease be kind to her.

{ Tomorrow is a new day. I think everyone got a little too excited, or a little too haywire to make any sense. They’re sleeping right now, and when dawn breaks the air will be a little fresher. }
