Victory.
Still crying, Hinoto had announced it over the ship's intercom. The Shlarvasseroth was destroyed. They were back in normal space along with survivors of the Second Draconian Fleet.
The sprites that had survived the fight, ready to defend the ship to the last, did not quite know how to take it. There was no resounding cheers - the news was taken in with a more numb, jaded attitude. Stunned disbelief, perhaps. Hinoto did not seem to be ashamed of her tears and her crying inspired others to tear up.
Perhaps, when they were at a loss on how to express themselves, tears were the only recourse they had to express their emotions.
