WHO: Lisa Snart and Liu Ying
WHAT: A meeting
WHEN: Morning, November 11
WHERE: Out in the streets
WARNINGS: N/A
For someone who came from a world where war was a constant and a reality, it seemed strange to Liu Ying to have what the locals were calling a Veterans' Day. She supposed it was a luxury of peace time, when those who remained looked back to the past and those who died in the defense of their nation.
The demons had their way of mourning the dead as well, but it was a more intimate affair, enacted by the friends and families left behind. This Veteran's Day was a grander and yet more subdued affair.
She wandered the city in the early morning in her smoke form, perusing the displays put up in memory of those who died in various wars. Eventually, she came upon a wall of handwritten names: those originally from the town who had passed on to their next lives. She coalesced into her human form to read them more closely, unaware someone else was out in this early morning.
