"It was," Kara murmured, giving Amneris a sympathetic smile. "Particularly for those still suffering the aftermath. But it did give my brother and Shadow motivation to get over their pride and work together again. That and shared grief over my death brought them back together. And that is really how Shadow's life has gone. He has many joys in his life, but they have rarely come without some level of loss. Having a silver ring doesn't mean that he is unhappy, personally, only that he's had to overcome a lot of difficult times, while over all, your mother, aunt, uncle and cousin have mostly known the gentler side of life."
She smiled sadly and murmured, "Had my daughter been chosen by Efil, I rather suspect her ring would be silver too. But she's generally happy isn't she?"
Flame nodded slowly. "I'm still sorry Uncle Shadow had to have a silver ring," she murmured, "But... As long as he's happy, it's all right."
Kara smiled at that and murmured, "He's happy, Flame. You don't need to worry about that. Now, I've kept you from your family long enough and they'll be wondering what you've learned. Rather then go into long explainations, it may be easier for you two to simply say that the gold rings go to the type of people who, overall, like to help and heal people while the silver rings go to people who have a great ability to overcome difficulties to life."
Glancing at Amneris, she added, "And Amneris, sweetheart, don't ever let anyone hold your abilities against you. Sign or not, you are a child of Fira and that's all that matters. I, and Damien, have looked in on both of you over the years and we're proud to think of you as part of our family. So just remember, you have the support of two Honoured Leaders as well as myself and the rest of your family."
