Whispers of the Firefly King: Your Name

You saved everyone, but we have to hold on to your memories. It's a burden we have to carry. Your deeds are rewarded but this is the payment for your goodness. I know you bore no ill will while trying your best. But let me tell you. You did awesome. You saved everyone, you changed the past, you're alive, she's alive. But you'll forget about her. She'll forget about you.

I weep for you, hero who changed the past. I weep for your lover. You won yet, this thing you lost seemed to be a higher cost, heavier burden. I'm glad I'm carrying it for you but I... I.. I know it will all turn out good. I have this feeling. It will all be work out.

This memories of you two, will remain an empty void inside your heart. You will yearn for it to complete. You will do great things but not be satisfied, because there is something missing. But alas, time and fate are connected. Just like the two of you, in dreams and in your hear.

Find her, Taki. Find her, Mitsuha. If not, I'm certain, fate and time will let you two see each other, once more. Be it in a dream you've long forgotten. A drawing, you've drawn then. A picture of world you forgot. A bridge you two pass by in your daily life. Or from a window of a passing train.

You will see each other. Memories will not be kept, but your hearts will by then fill each other.
