For what it's worth, I think you're right, Mr. Palaeno. It's possible to grieve in a way that's positive - not forgetting, but looking forward. It feels right to me, to try to honor the people I've lost by trying to live my life in hope of better things, better days - of peace, I guess.

I don't know what it's like to live somewhere where there has been a war in my lifetime, but I'm sure it is very painful. I hope that you and the people of your country can enjoy peace.

Your charity even sounds like a good idea. I'm not sure what kind of event you have in mind, but let me know if you're looking for entertainment. I can always make a cal and see if anyone I know is available.

I am very glad you think so, Mr. Ken. Sometimes I wish there was more I could do.

It was a very difficult time, to say the least, but the situation in Cohdopia continues to improve, and I'm hopeful that it's a sign of better days, and years, to come.

And thank you for the kind offer. I very much appreciate it. I'm not sure whether to have a dinner or a dance or a stage show--or something else. I will keep you informed!

Sounds like the war must have been pretty scary. Like, I hope everybody'll be alright. Cohdopia's certainly seen enough fighting from the looks of it!

I think you've got the right attitude though, Mr. P. You're keeping everybody's spirits up in, like, the most appropriate way you can. It's pretty tough to be strong for other people, but it really is nice to do.

Yes, when the war broke out, I'd already been assigned to my first diplomatic post in the States, but I did return to my country during the war, and it was quite frightening at times. Now the dust has settled, and Cohdopia is beginning to rebuild, and though some fear does linger in the air, it is my hope that it will be fading soon.

And thank you, Ms. Miney. I do what I can for my people!
