It seems The Nighthawks, The Valkyries, and the blessed Iron Knights all want to help out, somehow. And even despite their own battles and suffering. They all intend to give back as best they can. An honorable way to live, that's for sure. Through love and connection, there is unity and the chance for hope. And with hope comes much-needed compassion, for loved ones, friends, and then onto paying it forward. Giving kindly, to the less fortunate members of one's community. A wise old man once said, "Without being loved, there can be no courage, and without courage there can be no hope. Without hope... there is nothing left in the soul of a man.

And that perspective is seen through the lenses of whoever is peering into life, and from the definition of their own, unfolding story. When Wraith's family and friends deal with the aftermath of a deliberate attempt on her life, reality sets in. Heavily. The people closest start realizing just how precious life really is. As usual, The Nighthawks choose each other (and their families) to gain insight and strength, through both bonding and friendship. Being supportive, loving, honest, and real with one another are the only truths they know. It's a pity the rest of the world doesn't live by the same Code.

Bao and Nico tie the knot, and the gift of life is given again to another family. Much more begins to keep and connect them all --especially when unconditional love thrives. But how will they cope with the realities of life; work, family, and the exhaustion that follows? They'll need the strength of a tribe, or many who are willing. And so, they utilize it, in every way, shape, and form. And so, everything becomes possible. Another wise man once said, "There is strength in numbers, and strength always follows the brave."
