It hits you when you stare down at the sea; this is the end.

The ferocious waves appear to roar, as if they are monsters ready to devour their prey; You.

Desperate, you flap your wings, trying to get back to the sky, where you belong.
But you can't.
Your once proud wings have been bound and pierced. The heavy jewelry stopping you from running away - back to Home, to the Zephyr Steppes.

With pleading eyes you look at your father. His only response is to look at you with a heavy stare, judging you for not accepting your fate.
He looks up at the pleading crowd. They came to see your fall, to see the end of the famine come with yours.
Will the Wind be truly happy with your death?
It doesn't matter. The people have said yes.

You step forward and notice the cliff shatter little by little, as if crying against the heavy weight of an Imperial.
The waves only appear more and more vicious, its roar escalating with those of the crowd.
The furious roars drowning even your own thoughts.
Why does no one shut up?! You can't with this anymore!
You close your eyes and wish, beg, plead with tears in your eyes for everything to stop.

And it does.

The cliff gives up.
The crowd mutes.
And your sister, full of sorrow and shame, sees you fall.
But you know nothing.
Nothing but the feel of the wind in your face, the sound of the vicious and indomitable sea, finally claiming your body.

It’s dark.
It’s quiet.
It’s horrible.

The current hauls your body away from your home - away from those you once loved as much as the sky.
You finally close your eyes. Maybe for a final time.

In the coast of the Star Wood Strand, so close to the Scarred Wasteland, lays an unconscious Imperial.
Its once proud wings are now broken and destroyed by the current of the vicious sea.
Another Imperial stares at him.
She smiles to herself, and - in a mocking tone - tells him that this was the worse place he could have chosen to rest.
