These interlocked circles represent the Legacy they inherited, the Legacy they have passed on to us generation after generation after generation.
Writing about this fictional family as it grows, getting to know the Characters, it's impossible to not realize the connection between those generations and our own. All around me, every day, I run into people I've never met before and often blink and say to myself, "Here is an Alianora," or "That's a Danann if ever I met one," or "What the heck, there's a Sass!" I have met in the flesh many of the current generations of the Characters of SONG. Which makes me smile because we are living proof that they succeeded in protecting and preserving for us that Legacy.
They lived, fought, and died protecting OUR freedoms, because we are their Future.
Now it's our turn.
As an American I know full well where this story line is taking me - but never EVER do I forget, as the lineages first spread out and then reunite, where those lineages began, where they have gone, what other lineages have added their strengths along the way, and where all of those lineages now are ... which is not solely America by a long shot.
Every freedom-loving person in our world who is ready, willing, and able to plant their feet, take their stand, and hold their line shares something with the Characters of SONG.
Faith
Family
Friendship
Freedom
Future
If you recognize what those words mean, you are a Keeper of the Legacy.
What you Choose to do about that is entirely your Choice.
