Trials and tribulations.
- Lightning overcomes the fact that she doesn’t need to do everything alone in solitude in order to keep her loved ones safe. This acknowledgement awakens a greater power within herself, one that allows her to rely on others to cover her back when it’s turned.
- Snow. The hero. He wants to save everyone, leaving not a single person behind, friend or foe. Unconditional regards upon human beings, Cocoon citizen, Pulsian, l’cie alike. When he lost Serah, there was nothing that could stop him from throwing himself into the front lines. He had strength; what he needed was wisdom and self-restraint to slow down and analyze the situation before bounding in headlong.
- Sazh draws from within himself the wisdom he preaches, accepting that some things in the past can’t be changed, but that shouldn’t control how people approach their future. Forgiveness is a greater strength than hatred and resentment could ever amount to. Even if the people he’s fighting for exile him, he’s resolved to protect them with his life.
- Hope accepts the friends around them, realizing if they should place themselves in danger for him, he should work his hardest to not become a burden. To become not one who needs protection, but one who can provide it to his friends laying down their lives for the survival of Cocoon, and humanity as a race.
- Fang’s anger drives her to pull strength from a darkened part of herself, one tainted with sin and regret. Ragnarok herself, she unknowingly twists this power for the sake of Vanille and her fellow l’cie. Damned as she is, why not?
- Vanille wants nothing more to protect those whom she’s doomed. She would gladly sacrifice herself for their safety, but only when she realizes that what they want is not her death, but to survive alongside them and overcome this together, does she pull herself together and face the enemy beside them, the desire to live fueling her determination.
Omg, I’m am crying. Fuck.
