You wade through the waves of thousands, when, like a brilliant star on the horizon, you see the ones your sacrifice saved from a terrible foe. You focus all your strength, the utmost you can summon, and send it towards them, leaving you exhausted in it's wake. You filled this massive wave with assurance, that they needn't worry, but as you watch it fly away you see that it will lose much on it's travel. You realise, with heart-wrenching horror, that all that reaches your friends will be a faint cry of help from a familiar voice. There is nothing more to be done, you see a whiff of darkness as your strength fails you. In your weakest, you see a tall and fair being in front of you, smiling. You feel your resolve fasten, and you look at the brilliant star once more, waiting.
