Amyra looked Ninddle, Cassian, and Eddie in the eyes.
She felt intense hatred, yes.
For the other tributes.
For the gamemakers.
But also for herself.
For what she'd become.
For the world.
For what it made her.

She drew her sword.

Amyra, A small, quiet voice said in her head. Amyra smiled bitterly.

Yes, Aerie?

Don't forget me.

I won't.

Do you promise?

...... I promise.

She took a deep breath, and spoke her fourth ideal.

“I accept that sometimes the only way I can protect others is by ending myself."

And she stabbed herself in the chest with her sword. She wouldn't use her shardblade for this. She let the blood run down her body.

She staggered to the center of the ring, supporting her weight on the hilt of the blade, the tip digging into the sand.

Her voice was raspy and strained as she spoke her death rattle.

[Warning: It's long]

I suppose we all must die.
It’s inevitable, isn’t it?
How insignificant we are.
Just one life.
Just one death.
Just one family, mourning.
I look at the stars and think…
What are we?
What have we done?
What are our hopes and our dreams when faced with the endless possibilities out there.
The worlds we’ll never discover.
The years that keep coming, even if they leave others behind.
My mother died when I was twelve.
She held my face and told me that we all were worthless.
That life had no meaning.
Or value.
But I disagreed.
My father, overcome by grief, wouldn’t wake up most mornings.
It was my twin and I who would get up every morning and work the fields.
Feed the sheep.
Harvest the crops.
Tend to the farm.
Raise our sister and brother.
Freya was only six years old when my mother died, and Theo was one.
It was the effects of Theo’s birth that killed her, after all.
She stared me in the eyes and told me that I was worthless.
I didn’t believe her.
I was foolish, I suppose.
I thought I could still protect people
I thought there were still people to protect.
Well, there always will be people to protect.
But they don’t know it.
And they don’t want protection.
So, of course, my name got drawn.
My mother died, a liar.
But I think I’m starting to believe her now.
And the unsettling part?
I’m not upset.
Or frustrated.
Or discouraged.
I accept it.
I am at peace.
What is death?
Death is moving on.
Accepting and understanding.
Awakening and delving into slumber.
It is life’s beginning and life’s end.
Death is revival.
Death is peace.
Death is closing your eyes, knowing you wont open them again, and smiling.
It is finally saying goodbye, without feeling that bitter longing.
It will approach you at the right time, and right moment.
Don't worry, it will come.
This moment wasn't yours, but sometime, it will be.
And when that moment comes, accept it.
For that is all we can do.
That is all I can do.
My moment has come.
Perhaps yours will, soon.
And that is when you know that you can rest.
For death is nothing.
And everything.
It is lightness.
And it is darkness.
There is something of importance to remember as you let me die, here.
Alone.
Wilting to the world.
One last strand of words- powerful words- that I can offer to the pitiful world.
It is your choice to accept it.
But at the same time, it is not.
We have no choice.
And every choice.
Don’t go on living, leaving yourself behind.
It’s coming after you.
After all of you.
And it’s catching up.
Collected 8 seconds pre-death. Subject was a darkeyed youth of sixteen years who had taken her own life in the Second Annual Hunger Games.

Amyra closed her eyes.

And smiled.

Just wondering, wouldn’t that be betraying the first ideal, life before death?

OH MY GOSH! I WAS LITERALLY GONE FOR LIKE 10 HOURS OR SO AND NOW LIKE 4 PEOPLE HAVE DIED! That long passage of text was very sad Lotus Blossom.

Ezrium looked up at Ninndle. He had witnessed the deaths of Bob, Elan, Anansi, and Amyra. The only things in these games are death.

Quote

I never dreamed of getting top two when I entered it. Sad sacrifices from Lotus Blossom, Ravenclawjedi42, Ancient Elantrian, and SmilingPanda19!

I guess it's just you and me, eh Lord Spirit?

Eddie turns away from the two fallen gamemakers, snorting her disapproval. Her gaze lands on Cassian. "Oh, child," she says, and perhaps some part of her regretted what had happened to Bob, because she slipped her knife away and took him in her arms, looking into his shining eyes. "Oh, my boy. My...my son. You've lived in my home, and that makes you a part of my family. And I don't leave my family," she says sweetly, shoving down memories of the parents she used to have. "These ones don't have much longer; their games are ending, as they should. But you...you don't fit into their little play, their little deaths that ultimately mean nothing...don't worry, my child. I will make room for you. You have a place in my heart, little victor." She wraps him in a hug, and then, when her arms are behind his back, she reaches a finger that's somehow no longer tangible into his mind. "That's right, that's right. You are my son, the only true winner of these games..."

@SmilingPanda19

Cassian's eyes change slightly and he looks at Eddie for a moment. He buries his face into her shoulder, starting to sob. He holds the sunflower tightly in his little hands. Everything starts to fade and blur, memories mix with dreams and fantasies, real is now fake, truth is now lies, and the only thing he can say for certain is there is a loving woman holding him in her arms, calling him son.

I wouldn’t say trendy, just…common? Because we’re so evil.

Wait, so did we work so hard to save and protect Cassian just so he could be manipulated and influenced into become Eddie's child?

:mellow: You can edit this if you want to.

"It was all a part of your master plan. Manipulating us all. To kill each other." Ezrium realized, staring at Eddie and Cassian. "You make us think we have free will, that we could win. But no. There is only ever one winner of the Hunger Games. You. It was you all those years ago who killed my parents in the Hunger Games. Striking them down with no honor. How they begged you for mercy. How they thought you were there ally and friend. You said they tried to betray you. But I, I knew the truth. Ryn was right. You are pure evil. You call us your children, then strike us down, one by one. Killing us in cold-blood. What do you gain? Nothing."

Yeah…

We want a good finale, so we’ll wait a bit more, I suppose.

I'll be off for the rest of the night. Please don't kill my character. I'm going to be rather mad if I wake up in the morning and Ezrium is dead because Ninddle decided to kill him after being inactive for like the past 18 hours.

I'm back, I wasn't on for sunday, but I'm back now and ready to finish things. Thanks for not killing my character. I didn't think I'd make it this far.
