Accidental Video
-=The aftermath of the snowball war is apparent everywhere. Trampled snow, destroyed forts, knocked over building debris and trees...
But one tree stands alone. And Hawke's there, busily carving names in the highest portions of the trunk, letting them winding down towards the base by the snow trampled ground.
He's currently working on his own name, a design of swirls and points in a language that no one would really know here. It's his full name, a name that he has revealed to no one here, not even lovers. Hawke takes his time, brushing off bits of bark here and there. When he's finally done, he sighs softly, touching the markings longingly. A moment later he pulls his cloak closer to his body and continues on with the work. He must have been out there for a while now, since he's wearing a heaving cloth around his waist that's down to his ankles, a tunic and the cloak.=-

So what is it that you're carving in this tree? Are these names?
no subject
Others.. people who have gone are higher on the tree.

You wrote Makoto's name then. ...Did you write "Terra Brandford" as well?
no subject
-=frowns a bit.=-
I do not know the letters that would make her name. -=Aka, spelling.=-
no subject
I wonder... how did you get the idea of doing this? I believe Al already made some kind of memorial like this. But I do like this one.

-=His tone drops slightly.=- Usagi and I lost someone close to us. I said that the Naming Tree would help.

I am hoping that this will help others when they are sad friends have left. And that it will bring others together while we are here.
no subject
Where is this tree? I think I'd like to come and see it for real someday.
no subject
You are welcome to place your name on the tree, if you wish.

If one day the Animus consent to bring me back, then someone can put my name there... assuming they'll think I'm worth being remembered.

It is strange that humans do not wish to show they are together as one. But I have tried to understand more.
no subject
For me it's a priviledge to have your name written on a monument or something like this. And I don't feel like I've earned this right just yet.
That doesn't mean I don't admire the way you think. People being together as one is a wonderful ideal.
no subject
When you feel you are ready then.

[In turn, she pauses for a minute.]
Say Hawke, a week has passed since... Are you still okay to teach me?
