If they were to go out, they would go out in a blaze, as their lives had begun. That was only fitting, they felt, and it would be something to see for anyone watching.

These marshes were possibly not the best place for people to see them, wet and squelchy, but then they’d been viewed at a distance for so much of their life. Being seen from a distance at this point wasn’t going to do them any harm- and it might be for the best, in some cases. They couldn’t quite tell for themselves, but there were stories.

And there was always the fear of what would- or wouldn’t- happen in the end, in the marshes.
