On the idea of Theseus's Ship: in the end, it's still his, isn't it?
It was known as Theseus's, and it will continue to be known as Theseus's.
Even after he has returned to the ground which grew the wood of the hammer used to nail the ship's frame,
Even after generations of new wood have rotted and the sails are rags clinging to threads,
Even after millennia,
it will still be Theseus's Ship.
Goodnight, Phosphophyllite.

bc despite all the pain and suffering, there will always be life left to carry on. and we can make new friends and write songs about the beauty of our natural world and play together. bc the suffering, despite everything, does eventually end. it's never eternal, and a new day, in a world, will always begin.

Goodbye to all our Lustrous
I feel plenty of hapiness, I reached this end, It was a really long journey, and I got nothing but thank Haruko Ichikawa for telling all of us this story.
