“Does that sound okay to you, Little Bird?” Eldon asks, and I nod vigorously.

“That sounds more than okay,” I admit. It’s about time the realm wasn’t subjected to this kind of shit. Everyone should be treated equally and given a chance to nurture their own abilities.

“Are you happy, Raven?” Creed asks, and I take a second to really think about it.

If my life has taught me anything so far, it’s that happiness isn’t a destination. I don’t get to arrive there and stay there forever. It’s an emotion, just like sadness, anger, and heartache.

Are there sad moments in my life? Memories I’ll never be able to avoid, and pain that will come and go whether I like it or not? Yes. But is there also love in each embrace, heart in every encounter, and a reason to keep on living? Fuck yes.

There’s only one answer to his question. There will always only be one answer to his question. Because if I ever feel anything other than happiness, I know I’ll be able to ride out the storm and feel it warm my veins once again when I’m ready.

“With the four of you by my side, I will forever be happy.”
