 #PennedPossibilities 89 — Do your characters believe in happy endings?

My Winds and Pillars do not.

I mean, they grow up knowing they will die the year they turn 25. They will have their throats cut on top of a pyramid, feeding their energy to the Veil that protects the Holy Empire.

No happy ending there, unless they can frame it as the culmination of their service to the Empire.
