Subject: Today I am shipping a true champion.... Spike

I hope that fans can finally forgive him after his sacrifice.


"We are here to add to the sum of human goodness. To prove the thing exists. And however futile each individual act of courage or generosity, self-sacrifice or grace-it still proves the thing exists. Each act adds to the fund. It needs replenishment. Not only because evil flourishes, and is, most indefensibly, defended.
Josephine Hart, "Sin"


RIP my dear Spike... to be reborn like the Phoenix.

The phoenix is the sole one of its kind and lives in Arabia. At the end of an epoch, as it feels death drawing near, it builds a funeral pyre of sweet spices. Sitting upon its pyre it sings the sweetest five-note song we can imagine. The rays of sun ignite the pyre and the bird is reduced to ashes. From the ashes crawls a worm, which matures into an adult phoenix. Its first task is to gather the ashes of its parent from which it emerged and buries its parent in a temple in Heliopolis (the City of the Sun) to return to Arabia.
