Zavien
As they approached the base of the Spyglass, Zavien slowed to look intently at Soh, every word carrying meaning as he clarified, "That includes you, Soh." Not just all the people they'd served, but themselves too. They deserved to find happiness and a new place to feel comfortable, a place they could finally find peace from the burdens of leadership. They'd both been through so much that it seemed impossible right now, a fantasy that would never come to pass, but Zavien had nothing if he didn't have hope, and he clung to it even now.
It was something he knew he'd struggle with, something he suspected Soh would too: caring for themselves even after all the work was done. He always managed to find more to do, another person to care for that wasn't himself. But he wouldn't let her do that, and Zavien said the words again, making sure she understood every detail this time, "No matter how long it takes, we'll find a new home for everyone."

A flower cannot blossom without sunshine,
and man cannot live without love.
and man cannot live without love.
