"The night has given me dark eyes,
I use them to look for light."
--Gu Cheng, "One Generation"

Amidst the ashes and flames in the Battle of the Chinese University of Hong Kong, 20 pro-democracy protesters were arrested while countless were shot, injured and hospitalized.

Their only armor against tyranny is their courage born out of their love for Hong Kong.

One year slips away and there is no more shattered glass on campus. Students' voices are washed away by paint thinner. Lurking quietly and in shapeless forms, the suppression imposed by the regime and police brutality is visibly loud.

Traces could be covered up and wounds might get mended, but memory can neither be altered nor undone.

When the regime tries to silence those who survive, we shall scream even louder.

The eight empty grids, the flag being painted black and those twelve names are seeds: They will take roots, grow toward the light and blossom after this war.
