Thinking about Rio and hurting bad.
Thinking about the love she had for Agatha, a mortal, a love so strong that Rio was willing to bend her own rules—the sacred balance—just because Agatha said one thing.
“I will hate you forever.”
Rio knew that there was nothing to stop what was coming. She did not want to do it, she had no choice. It was the way of life and so was the way of death. It was the way of Rio’s very own being.
And yet Agatha still rejected her. Everything that Rio stood for and everything that Rio ever was, over something that she had absolutely no control over.
Can you imagine how painful that would be?
Still she stood there and took everything Agatha threw at her.
And Rio did try to find a way to work around, she offered time. For Agatha, for Nicky. And for herself.
She bought time for both of them to delay the most unthinkable. For Agatha, it was the death of her (their) son; and for Rio, nothing was more unimaginable than the loss of Agatha’s love and affection.
It was the greatest gift and blessing Death could ever offer to anyone.
Agatha would get what she wanted, at least for a while. She would welcome their son to the world and live out possibly the happiest moments of her life. But for Rio, it was a countdown to the darkest and most sorrowful time ever known to her.
And Agatha would never know any of that.
Rio Vidal, the most powerful yet most tragic character of the show. Who gave her all but at the end, got nothing back.
Luke 2 - retold version
At that time, the Roman Emperor Caesar Augustus issued a decree that everyone in the empire must be registered in a census. This meant that each person had to travel to their ancestral hometown.
Joseph, a descendant of King David, lived in Nazareth in Galilee. He went to Bethlehem, David’s hometown, with Mary, who was engaged to him and expecting a child.
While they were there, the time came for Mary to give birth. She gave birth to her firstborn son, wrapped him in strips of cloth, and laid him in a manger because there was no room for them in the inn.
That night, some shepherds were staying out in the fields nearby, watching over their flocks. Suddenly, an angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone all around them. The shepherds were terrified, but the angel said, “Don’t be afraid! I bring you good news that will bring great joy to all people. Today, in Bethlehem, a Savior has been born. He is the Messiah, the Lord. You will find him wrapped in cloths and lying in a manger.”
Then, a vast host of angels appeared, praising God and saying, “Glory to God in the highest, and peace on earth to those with whom God is pleased.”
When the angels returned to heaven, the shepherds said, “Let’s go to Bethlehem and see this thing that has happened!” They hurried to the village and found Mary and Joseph, with the baby lying in the manger.
After seeing him, the shepherds told everyone what the angel had said about this child. All who heard their story were amazed. Mary treasured these things in her heart and thought about them often. The shepherds went back to their fields, praising God for everything they had seen and heard.
Eight days later, the baby was circumcised and officially named Jesus, the name the angel had given him before he was conceived.
When the time came for Mary and Joseph to follow the purification laws, they brought Jesus to the temple in Jerusalem to dedicate him to the Lord, as the Law of Moses required. They offered a sacrifice of two doves or pigeons, which was the customary offering for those who couldn’t afford a lamb.
At the temple, there was a man named Simeon. He was righteous and devout, eagerly waiting for the Messiah to come and rescue Israel. The Holy Spirit had revealed to him that he wouldn’t die before seeing the Lord’s Messiah.
Moved by the Spirit, Simeon went to the temple. When Mary and Joseph brought Jesus to be dedicated, Simeon took the baby in his arms and praised God:
“Lord, now I can die in peace,
as You have promised.
I have seen Your salvation,
prepared for all people—
a light to reveal You to the nations,
and the glory of Your people Israel.”
Mary and Joseph were amazed at what Simeon said. Then Simeon blessed them and told Mary, “This child is destined to cause many in Israel to rise and fall. He will be a sign from God, but many will oppose him. And a sword will pierce your own soul, too.”
There was also a prophetess named Anna, an elderly widow who lived in the temple and worshiped God with fasting and prayer day and night. When she saw Jesus, she gave thanks to God and spoke about him to everyone waiting for the redemption of Jerusalem.
When Mary and Joseph had done everything required by God’s law, they returned to Nazareth in Galilee. Jesus grew up healthy and strong, filled with wisdom, and God’s favor was upon him.
Every year, Jesus’ parents traveled to Jerusalem for the Passover Festival. When Jesus was twelve years old, they went as usual. After the festival ended, they started their journey home, but Jesus stayed behind in Jerusalem without them realizing it.
Assuming he was with the group, they traveled for a day before they began looking for him among their relatives and friends. When they couldn’t find him, they returned to Jerusalem to search for him.
After three days, they found him in the temple, sitting among the teachers, listening to them, and asking questions. Everyone who heard him was amazed at his understanding and answers.
When Mary and Joseph saw him, they were astonished. Mary said, “Son, why have you done this to us? Your father and I have been frantic, searching for you everywhere!”
Jesus replied, “Why were you searching for me? Didn’t you know I must be in my Father’s house?” But they didn’t fully understand what he meant.
Jesus returned to Nazareth with them and was obedient to them. Mary treasured all these things in her heart.
Jesus grew in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and people.
