The story of their time together is a dark and twisted one, set in a time she would rather not remember but doesn't dare forget. She will never know where they came from or how they grew up, what their dreams and goals were, what their families were like, nor their friends, nor their loved ones. These things are no longer important. What matters now is what carried her, what carried all of them, through the cracked and burning city streets and into the light: the patience, the wisdom, the faith, the determination to march forward and the refusal to give up even after all else had been lost, and the lesson that there is always a reason to hope—-and that with hope, there is always a reason to survive.

Theirs is a story she will remember forever.
