To give readers hope that their lives can live on

Fairytales don't really have a happy ending, at least not when and where they're claiming one to be. Where they decide to end the fairytale is a happy moment in that story, but the story's not really complete. Like clockwork traveling through time, even if we were all gone and there's no one to keep track of it.

So this is my happy ending. Not to my life, but to this chapter in it.
