Oz knows what to wish for. She remember what she sacrificed. Her friends deaths. Because of her...She knows she can't bring all of them back...But she knows she can bring someone back. Someone who gave up her life to save hers...And now...she can gave back the life that was taken from her.

Before she do however...She grab a piece of paper, and writte down something.

Fortuna. Persephone. I found a way to bring her back...A Healer job is to save lives...But...the job of a family member is to save others lifes too. And I will bring her back, no matter what. Hecate, I love you my sister, my daughter. With all my heart.

Bethy. You were right. Maybe...I more brave and strong than I give credit for. If this doesn't work...Forgive me Bethy.

Dite...I sorry for what I about to do. But sometimes...you must be brave to sacrifice yourself for others. And I always consider the lifes of those that I love more importantly than mine. We will meet again. I promise.

Meza...Oh Meza. I think...maybe you would understand. If you could...change fate. Change the fate for the one you loved the most. If you could trade your life to bring the one love back...would you do it? I will sacrifice my life. And bring someone who taken away from me.

My sisters...my family. I love you all: Hecate. Persephone. Fortuna. Dite. Bethy. Meza...I love you all my family. My friends. 

Seddi/@Dragonstrike, forgive me...maybe we will not have the battle we wanted to do. The time we spend was short, but you show me I have the courage to face fate in the fate.

Dodger. You save me. You make have bravery. You bring back the spark on me. The desire to save lives. And now...I can bring one back. Thank you. For everything.

Mr Samsara/@PhantomUnderYourDesk...You are a bit scary...But...You also kind. You was the most kind Scimitar I ever meet. You show me I also have bravery on me. Bravery enough to face my demons. To not be weigh by the sins and mistakes of my past. I...I wish I could have know you better. Maybe...Maybe we could be...friends. Maybe you could teach so much! I-I...

Oz could barely hold the tears in her face...But...She must be strong. Specially in what she must do.

To all the people who joined in this little existence of mine called 'Life': Thank you for everything. We might be little sparks of ember in this huge universe with all its stars...But...By loving this world, its life...I find this little spark ever bright and meaning. I love you all. And...goodbye.

Oz finally finish her message in the paper. She approach Akuma. Looking at him. With tears in her face, while he grab that stone, she ask him. "Akuma. I have a enourmour favor to ask you."

Oz gave the paper to Akuma. "I know what I must do. What I wish for." She looks at the blade. "Promise me. Promise me you will deliver this message to everyone. To my sisters. And to everyone."

She looks at the flame in front of her. And each of the offerings. She takes a deep breath, and then state her wish. 

"Guardian of this place. Please...hear my plea." Even now, Oz fears was palpable. Even with what she is willing do, she still fear death. "Many years ago, my friends...they all died because of me. I...I failed with them. Because...I was not strong enough. Because of my weakness, they perished...And when I was about to join with them, paralysed by the fear of death, my sister, Glinda, sacrifice her life to save mine. She was...She was the light of my light!" Oz face was flooded with sorrow, the survival guilty finally reaching its pinnacle. "She...save me. But...her life was cut! Taken away! She...she had so much to live for!"

Oz fall with her knees in the ground, crying, sobbing. She put her face in the ground. "I miss her...I miss her so much! There is no day I do not feel the guilty in my back. That I...I failed with all of them! I-I failed as a medic. Failed as a sister." Then she tries to hold strengh. "Thats why...Thats why I know what I want to wish for." Trembling, she stand up. "I know...I cant bring them all back. But..." Oz look at the knife.

"I know who I can at least bring back."

"WHO WILL REMEMBER ME" by Twelve Titans Music • World's Most Emotional Music

Oz put the knife close to her. "I wish..."

Oz then put the Knife close to her heart.

"I wish...To Glinda be back to life...And what I offer in exchange..."

With a quick and determined look, she push the Knife in her heart, felting the pain and suffer.

"Is my own life...the same life she save...And now..." Oz taste her own blood going though her mouth. "I...giving...back..."

Her world begin to fall into darkness. Her vision blurs...Her hands shaking. Her all legs falling in the ground. She falling little by little...feeling the pain getting worse...But at the same time begin to disappear. The knife in her hand falling, her own hands stain with her own blood.

"WHO WILL REMEMBER ME" by Twelve Titans Music • World's Most Emotional Music

She looks at the sky. She wonders...if this world will remember me.

"Glinda...My dear sister...I...If I could have one more wish...It was to see you again with me...To make you see how much I grown...How much our sisters grow. To...show...you...the rest...of...family..."

...

"Ashes...to...ashes...Dust...to...dust..."

Slowy. Very slowy. Her eyes closed. The light of life leaving Oz eyes. With only thing keeping her from fall into despair...Was the hope that her family will be reunited once more...Even if she can't be stay there.

What is about to do now...is now beyond my control.

The knife slides in without resistance, without a sound, without any pain....or regret.

You feel the Immense Surprise, Shock, and....Awe that this Shrine....

The Argent Flame of Prosperity...

....has for your Offering.

Your Noble Gift.

Your Grand Sacrifice.

Your Heartfelt Wish.

Your Sincere Amends.

Your D e a t h .

You don't feel much of anything, anymore. You slip away,
                                                  away,
                                                  away.....

Music: ***

Lani cups her own face in sheer horrified surprise, eyes shrinking to pinpoints.

Kayla, still standing guard, senses something gravely amiss and rushes over to the shrine.

Your sister burst from their Balls, swarming all over your form with deepest shock, dread, and tearful defiance. Fortuna wrenches a Max Revive from your Inventory and tries to use it, but it just does not work. Hecate looks so confused and devestated, opening bawling as she just didn't understand WHY her Mother-Master would KILL HERSELF like this...!!!

Persaphone and Bethy....they didn't react nearly as harshly. Instead, they watched Oz's body with rigid, rapt attention, their Ghostly auras flaring to life with an intensity rivaling that of the Argent Flame.

Mezna was just....surprised. Not distraught, but in disbelief at what their new Trainer pulled. She did not wail or get mad, though. The Faffur simply....nodded to the body. Understanding. Accepting.

Dite was just so confused, so distressed, she flat out Fainted from the stress of it all.

@Dragonstrike , @Iron , @Mikaruge108

In an instant you Know, deep within your Bones, your very S O U L , that something has happened to Oz the Healer. Your Astral Stones burn furiously, radiating a celestial glow at this....

Grave and irrepairable loss.

~~~

Music: Beyond the Door

@Pokekitty2

Or is it ?

While on the way to the Saloon with Myra - who herself suddenly goes rigid at what happened - you get the exact same feeling as everyone else in the merry little band you joined.

Unlike them, though, you Knew something Different.

Something Special

A Grave, Tremendous Sacrifice has Taken Place

Oz as the Wooloo.

They are d e a d .

Gave their L i f e.

To bring one back

That gave theirs
               For them.

But You

Y o u

Y O U

Y O U  C A N  G I V E  W H A T  H A S  B E E N  G I V E N

All it takes....

Is
   a
     simple

"Wish."

You and Myra vanish -

~~~

- and reappear right in the Shrine.

Myra, off to the side, her tails fanned wide as she Looked at the Argent Flame...

You (Sylvia) hovering over the body of Oz, eyes aglow with Great and Wise P O W E R .

A Max Revive is Removed from your Inventory, and through your P O W E R -

Through the super-charged Baton Pass you used to get here -

And the Solemn, Defiant Wish you have:

Music: Agnus Dei"

"Rise. Live again."

- the Max Revive is Empowered. FAR beyond its limits. It transforms into a sphere of pure energy

Pure L I F E

....and shoots straight into Oz.

~~~

".....oz.....
"....oz....
"...Oz...!
"..Oz..!!
".Oz.!!!"
"OZ!!!!!"

Music: Stops

......Until something grabs your hand.

Something that feels familiar.

Someone.

"OZ, YOU.....YOU......YOOOOOOU.......!"

You are yanked from the Abyss

and back into the Light.

The moment the Orb of L I F E entered Oz...

...ALL the Blood she split

The L i f e and D e a t h she gave so freely and selflessly

It floats into the air, goes straight into the silver bowl -

- and then bowl into the Argent Flames.

The Shrine room erupts with its Prosperous Power, the flames leaping out of the braizer and engulfing Oz.

Sylvia presided over all, like a [Grand Hierophant].

Myra, Persaphone, and Bethy eyes suddenly glowed, and the very flames took on a Ghostly sheen as they focused their own Intent and Aid onto It and her

Oz

Oz and....!

**S H A T T E R**

The Argent Flames exploded.

The shockwave, the aftermath, the sheer w e i g h t driving everyone back or onto their knees.

Sylvia collaspes from the air, slumping over onto the ground and feeling the weight of her own Sacrifice to make her Wish come true.

Oz's Sisters, one and all, Flinch away from the blast, but when they turned and opened their eyes they all let out strangled gasps.

For crouched...

Unmarred.

Unbloodied.

Was their Master and Sister Oz.

Alive.

Music: * * *

Alive....and cradled by someone else.

Someone who was crying furiously as they were hugged fiercely, trembling and shaking as she held Oz.

Her Master, Sister, and most very Cherished One.

"....YOU IDIOT!!!"

Glinda the Goodwhich said to Oz, who was now barely conscious, staring down at them with fury...

Fury born of worry and fright.

"YOU DIDN'T HAVE TO DO THIS. YOU SHOULDN'T HAVE DONE THIS! I GAVE MY LIFE FOR YOURS! YOU WERE NOT SUPPOSED TO...TO....!"

Glinda sagged, holding you ever closer.

"...To give back what I free gave....."

The woman, the Pokemon, bowed her head.

"Oz....thank you. Thank you....you idiot."

The Shrine fell silent.

The Argent Flame retreated, dimmer and subdued, yet.....proud of what it helped Fulfil.

For this....

This...

This was Truly a most Miraculous of Wishes.

Oz is Alive - She suffers no Penalties to her Stats, but Loses her Remaining Encounters for the Day, 1 Moderate Encounter for the next Day, and all her Minor Encounters for Tomorrow as well. She only has 2 Minor Encounter Remaining. + 1 Fortune to Oz.

Glinda the Goodwitch's Fate has been Changed - She is Alive, and now Reunited with her Sister. 5/5 Loyalty and Happiness, but very irate at her idiotic Sister's decisions thus far. The ramifications of this will be discussed via PM. + 1 Fortune to Glinda (2)

Sylvia loses her Max Revive, 10 Will, and is Beyond Exhausted: - 5 to All Rolls for the Rest of Today, - 2 for Tomorrow. However, she feels that a certain Someone Knows what they did and are Pleased and Proud of it...

All of Oz's Pokemon BUT Bethy, Persaphone, and Meza lose 2 Loyalty and Happiness, and are deeply upset by what their Sister did. Bethy, Persaphone, and Meza, on the other hand, GAIN 1 Happiness and Loyalty - if this goes over the Cap, ignore said Cap.

Lani, Myra, and Kayla gain 10 XP from this experience.

Akamu gains 1 Point in Earth Power, and their Patron now has an interest in Oz.

Every PC knows Oz is now fine and Alive - + 5 XP and + 1 Will.
