That being said, here are my other ideas on what the Hail Mary can run into on the way to Erid:

Grace and Rocky find the Tulpar post-crash. (bonus points if Rocky full body tackles Jimmy)

Grace and Rocky find literally any Transformer or Decepticon, I’m not picky.

Grace and Rocky find a xenomorph (bonus points if eridians can communicate with it and they befriend the xenomorph)

Grace and Rocky meet a Predator (bonus points if they befriend a predator)

Grace and Rocky find Wheatley.

Grace and Rocky find literally any space-residing pokemon.

Grace and Rocky find the Collector from The Owl House.

Grace and Rocky find a baby Superman like, right after Krypton is destroyed.

Grace and Rocky find the planet Vesta from Scavengers Reign.

And, my personal favorite:

All of them, at the same time.

You can literally read it all for free on mangadex if you don't have the funds to buy a real volume. It's so incredibly good-- an amazing twist on the villainess genre set in an incredible and fascinating fantasy setting filled with so many lovable characters. Our main character is sooo fun to watch and so deeply fucked in the head but also seemingly healthy about it...? Which is just. So interesting to watch. I love my girlboss !!!

The art is spectacular and ranges from pannels like this

To this

Literally within the first 2 chapters btw. And yes, the art only gets better and more striking from here. And this is our main character, to be clear <3

(and one of my favorite main characters to watch in action in manga/anime in general, girl is always up to something and we just get to watch the shenanigans)

Anyways if that isn't enough to convince you, you should definitely consider reading specifically for Thorne and Remilia's dynamic. Their interactions are consistently either the funniest thing ever to watch, or very genuine and interesting-- and we get to see them at least every few chapters, so their ongoing friendship is just. Amazing and constantly there, somewhere in the background.

Thorne specifically is so funny tbh, he is THE reaction guy in the corner going "what the fuck is happening" and he is everything to me. I am obsessed w this guy and you should be too !! Read this manga for him if nothing else, trust me, he's worth it

The manga is set to get an anime in 2027, so you should for sure consider picking up the manga (again, you can read it for free on mangadex if you cant buy a copy !!!)

Now, you can go to Península Valdés and find that the whale population there is growing year after year, people can see them from their windows. In Iberá, where yaguaretés were extinct for over 70 years, there's now a population of 35 and growing, after being reintroduced just five years ago. As for rainforests?

We've becoming very, very good on restoring them. Natural environments, when given space and time to heal, can return to that they were. And after all, all natural enviroments are managed by human societies. It is up to us to implement a good management, un buen gobierno.

I firmly believe our children and grandchildren will see a restoration of Earth like never before.

Spix's Macaws were extinct in the wild for 70 years, and now captive breeding and conservation groups have reintroduced a small population (with more on the way) and there are babies being successfully raised in the wild again.

And what else is there, but hope? We exist for the grace of hope. Those who have lost all hope don't stay here. If you are here to send an ask like this, it is not because you have given up, it's that you are hoping someone will show you that that hope is worth having.

It is!! It always is!!

The population of an entire island working together to eradicate every last rat and mouse to save the native bird populations. They had to trap a bunch of the birds and keep them in captivity so they wouldn’t be hurt by the rodenticides, and released them after the rodents were gone. Normal residents helped by phoning in tips whenever they saw rodents. And they did it. Lord Howe Island, last I read, remains rodent free, and the native bird populations are rebounding!

Acid rain and the hole in the ozone layer, both of which were terrifying specters of my childhood, have been largely dealt with. Ecosystems devastated by acid rain are also recovering.

In 1991, the first captive-raised condors were re-introduced to Big Sur, Pinnacles, and Bitter Creek.

In 2006, three months before I turned eighteen, the first wild pair of condors was seen nesting in Big Sur in over a hundred years. A hundred years.

We did that. We fixed it.

How about another example.

When my mom was small, in the 1960s, there were many, many days of the year she was not allowed outside. Days and days they had recess indoors, because the air was so poisonous to breathe. Here's an article about it, with some good pictures.

My mom was 13 in the picture on the left. She was 50 in the picture on the right.

In 1987, there were 27 California Condors in the world, all captive.

In 2024, there were 566.

369 of them fly free.

That happened within my lifetime, and I'm not even 40 yet.

When you lose hope, think of our stories we're telling you. Recount them to yourself like a prayer. That's what I do.

There are 369 California Condors flying free in the sky right now.

There is no more acid rain.

There is an ozone.

There are wild tigers.

There are still birds on Lord Howe Island.

By 2013, there were approximately 1,200 living wild, across 18 dens. Their numbers increase regularly, and while the face challenges due to habitat loss, climate change, and their limited genetic diversity, they're in a much better place than they were.

Shattered Glass, but...?

-

for 365 days, we've become unable to forgive anyone

somewhere in that time, we stopped being kind

our vision is dirty, our hearts worn raw

if tears can still fall, then maybe we can still be saved

hey, rain

happy rollout day, nines 🖤

I won't spoil much about the lore but there are 9 endings, here's a guide on how to achieve all.
