Yay! I just sent you a PM, Sean.

So I wasn't sure where to talk about this, so I'm gonna do this here. :D I think I need a fresh start. I have loved and watched these character's grow, but every now and again we get to watch our characters grow beyond us. They have become the people that we knew they could be and we are proud of them. I feel that way for my characters, but I wanted to wish them a proper goodbye here. Which is why I'm posting this here, this is not an end to my story on Hammel, this is a tying of loose ends with my beloveds, for I refuse to leave their stories unended, consider this their epilogue. Stay tuned here for some new friends to meet!

Lani Hunter: Lani has been through the ringer these past several years. My first character here and as such the hardest for me to let go. He's been with my like a constant flame, always somehow coming out stronger after everything that I've thrown at him. He's the most pessimistic optimist I've ever written. From the beginning, Lani has been uncomfortable in his own skin, a troublemaker and I have had the privileged of watching him fall in love, and out of it and into it again. He's gone from the righteous side of Hell to law abiding citizen and he has been moving in that direction and working very hard. So it is time I give him this gift. His power and his drive have pushed him to apply to transfer and Lani Hunter is now a Physics major at a major university in California. He will prove himself there and with his skill and intellect and drive, he is on track for having a successful career in Academia. Lani Hunter has shaken his chains finally and learned to fly. Farewell, love, wind to thy wings.

Idalia Tsavaris: Idalia was always a guilty pleasure of mine, a dream for being a good forecaster, and always knowing the answer. Well, the truth is, we never know the answer, even with the ability to see the future. Idalia has accepted a job offer to work at the Storm Prediction Center in Oklahoma where her fast paced forecast skills allow her to give greater warnings for tornadoes, severe thunderstorms, flooding and windstorms. It is the challenge that she has always longed for and its a job she looks forward to every day. She is highly respected and teaches classes at the university when she can. She's raising hell and taking names, and like every good female scientist she is holding up and supporting those around her. Best of luck, Ida dear, may your spyglass always be clear.

Raylaigh Hawthorne: Oh, Ray, he was always the most fun, the bright light in a dim room. He's since graduated, (just barely!) and gone to chase his dream at an art school in southern California. He is a talented young man and has a successful career in animation ahead of him, he just doesn't know it yet. He's living life as he has always done, one wing-beat at a time. Clear skies ahead, fly high and far, Raylaigh.

Joe Honnick: Ha! Joe's not going anywhere, he's got things to do! ;)

Best,
Izy
