\u201cWait. You knew her?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cI knew all of them. Or, I thought I did. A long time ago.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWhat were they like?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
She smiles slightly, old and cracked. \u201cThey were going to change the world.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And around them, the world burned.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
They knew once upon a time, that they could be great. Once upon a time, they were.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
They ruled with passion, with love for each other that flew past the heaven that damned them. Once upon a time, they spread hope. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
They were loved. They were rejoiced upon for saving, for slaying the ones who stood above and watched with a twisted mind and gleeful gaze. Once upon a time, the fire was warm and safe and soft and home. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
They were together. A team, even after their success. The land prospered with happiness and with life. Once upon a time, there was no more sick and no more disease.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Once upon a time, they were weak.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Once upon a time, they started out with broken souls and hardened hearts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Once upon a time, they were the spark.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Once upon a time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
