View original postThe idealist was burned out and didn't care about anything by the end beyond getting his friends out intact (and ended up losing all the ones he was closest to). The most overtly heroic and courageous, had her most heroic ongoing practice go unnoticed, and ended up questioning her moral fitness to the point where she felt almost unworthy to survive. The most obviously good character, who was the voice of morality throughout the series betrayed the team at the end and a case could be made that she caused all the tragedy of the ending with her failure of nerve. The smartest one, with the keenest insight, who wasn't interested in the fight for its own sake or the greater cause, gets yanked away from his happy ending, and in the final PoV of the series, seems to realize that they've made a huge mistake from the very beginning. And the kid who was the closest to the protagonist and hero wins an empty victory that leaves him lost and broken.
