Arrow | Characters | Dinah Laurel Lance | “Death is the biggest form of darkness to exist in the world. It hides in the shadows trailing your every move. The happiness inside of you is ripped away once you’re led into the dark path. You find yourself surrounded in loss. It doesn’t always necessarily mean losing a person either, there’s many variations of witnessing the death to something in your life. It could mean losing your romantic relationship with the man you once dreamed of being with, taking away the light you once held inside of you. Once the person you love most in your life has been taken away from the world due to death falling upon them, the darkness then traps itself around you consuming the soul. You lose the person people once saw as you as, and instead look for a meaning that’s something so important to you, in your own heart that drives you to find the motivation required after suffering through so many tragic experiences. The only way to keep in control from death stealing everything you love away, entering your life once again is to fight it away with every inch of breath to protect the people who you love by becoming a different version of yourself - a hero who will have many tales told about them, and have their former loved one remembered for the saviour she was.”
