"No, it's where my savior found me when I was dead to this world. After Suri saved my life, I was still depressed, bitter, and angry towards those who had ruined my life. Then I remembered something from my previous symbiont world, and then I heard a voice. It was telling me to let go of my hatred. Up until that point, I was so bitter that I was unable to live. It may not have shown, but it was there. I'd been letting this grow for twenty years. It had destroyed me. I realized that while Waefae had no control over me, my soul was still in the hands of an even worse evil, the devil. I listened to this voice as it told me about Jesus and how he had died on the cross for the sins of those who love him, and how he had risen from the dead. It wasn't until the voice had gone away that I realized I had been speaking to God. I prayed and became a Christian, right where we are now standing. That day, I learned to stand in the rain."

Sol listened to Guy's words, his face still as stone. Praying to a being that had no form upon earth? He found it hard to believe. "Is it really so simple to let go of everything just like that?" he asked, his dirty emerald gaze still locked upon Guy.
[it sucks, I apologize. I didn't really know what to say...]

"To accept Christ, yes, to let go, that takes time. I felt peace, but I still had to learn to forgive those who had hurt me. I still had to learn to move on, but through Him, I have learned to stand when all else around me comes crashing down, like this waterfall. He's always there, and when you think He's not, that's when He's carrying you through it all. Is it an easy path, no, we still have trials and pain, but we can get through it because of what he has done for us and continues to do for us. He didn't have to save me, but he chose to save me. You will still miss her, and you will still have pain, but you will learn to move on, learn to love again, and learn to trust in He who gives you strength," Guy said. He lifted his head up into the water, feeling the power of it as it fell on him and surged all around him, pulling at him, trying to shove him under. He began to laugh in pure joy as he closed his eyes and let the water fall on him. He lifted his hands up and began to sing to himself. "When peace like a river attendeth my way, when sorrows like sea billows role, what ever my lot thou hast taught me to say, it is well, it is well with my soul. Though Satan should buffet, though trials should come, let this blessed assurance control, that Christ has regarded my helpless estate and has shed his own blood for my soul My sin, oh the bliss of this glorious thought, my sin not in part but the whole is nailed to the cross and I bear it no more, praise the Lord, Praise the Lord oh my soul. And Lord haste the day when the faith shall be sight, the clouds be rolled back as a scroll. The trump shall resound and the Lord shall descend, even so, it is well with my soul."
