Reply to comment by IML_42 in [WP] You were the hero, the prophesied savior of the world. But you are so very tired of sacrificing for the greater good, of having to do the right thing at your expense. So when they ask you to do it again, you say no. by CyrusFallen

Wow! Amazing how with only a few lines, you made me take a metaphorical blow to the gut when Lucy died.

Well done!

Thanks for the kind words! “The light is gone from my life,” is a derivation of what Teddy Roosevelt wrote in his diary on the day that both his mother and wife died. I’ve always found that phrase and context to be so devastating.
