Oh gosh; what an incredible, emotional ride. Nomi, Serina, and the women of Viridia are so strong and incredible. This story is the embodiment of sisterhood and the warrior strength held inside women, even when underestimated by others and themselves. Of course the story would not have been the same without the strong backing of the men as well. Val, Malachi, and Renzo played very important parts and stood as equals to their ladies.
