What was the purpose of this? What was the purpose of everything in Tova Katz’s life?

Did Tova Katz even have a life? No. It wasn’t her life to live, it was the life of Sailor Requiem, the entity inside of her that had all but consumed and destroyed every aspect that Tova – the shell of a girl named Devi – once loved and held dear.

Sure, Sailor Requiem’s life had purpose. That life had meaning. But at what cost? It has turned a once-sweet girl into a resentful, self-loathing, angry and volatile monster. She lost her family, her friends, her first love, and literally her entire identity in a short span of six months – something she doubted she’d ever be able to recover from. She still hadn’t.

Who was Tova Katz? She was a Destiny City University sophomore who is best known as the roommate of a girl who went missing. It was a reputation that could have been far worse if it were more honest – she was the girl who abducted her roommate, accidentally killed her and buried her.

That was Sailor Requiem’s doing, she reminded herself, as if the identities were any way separate. She knew that they weren’t, but it was the best way to ease her guilt over her actions. She had done some terrible things, and the murder of her roommate was only the cherry on the cake of torture, destruction and more deaths.

By November 2012, it felt that for all that she had given up, it felt like Requiem’s work was not quite appreciated after running into issues with two of the newest recruits, Sailors Toutatis and Aurora. They took issue with her management style as too mean and violent. As if they had room to talk – they didn’t know anything about what she had gone through.

Enough was enough.

Tova needed a change – she needed to no longer be Sailor Requiem. Maybe she would never see the day where she steps through the portal of mirrorspace and returns to her homeplanet. Perhaps that was okay with her, if it meant she could at least find happiness in the present.

Frustrated more than ever, Tova raced through her tiny college apartment as she tossed all of her clothes and belongings into a small bag. It was something she had done before when she buried her former life of Devorah Gellner, but she had even less belongings this time. After all, it was the belongings of a girl without a life.

There were no photos or items she held dear with great memory, just old clothes, toiletries and scraps of cash tossed in a gym bag with room to spare. Staring down at the tiny bag, she powered up to Sailor Requiem and grabbed onto her stuff, staring at her reflection in the mirror. It was her gateway out of here, her next destination still undecided.

But she knew one thing for certain: she was never returning to Destiny City ever again.

She grabbed her cellphone and sent out a text to Quinn Bennet. "Thanks for being there for me, my only true friend. Goodbye." She left her phone on the dresser.

Stepping into the mirror she turned around to give her city one last look and some parting ******** you, Destiny City.”
