Slavery, abuse, loss, madness... To an onlooker, witnessing a lord of past Ages go through them in a millenia must seem inconsequential, yet even the beast is all too human at heart, the long years never truly carrying away the deep scars. In the end, wouldn't it be understandable for the one in red to succumb like the brothers and sisters of star, earth and dreams?

It is a testament to her love and strength that she keeps on protecting those who she cares for without exceptions or prejudice.

To carry the sun with pride, but also gaze into the sunset with a brave heart.

To love the darkness, yet keep the flame alight without pause.

That, is what it means to be the Life-Binder.

To be Alexstrasza.
