The Banner for Sophia, Servant of the Lord

It's called The Banner for Sophia, Servant of the Lord, and it is a symbol for all of you to show. Sophie was one of the greatest souls to grace our realm. The deeds she accomplished by just a simple act are numerous and long-lasting. She is my historical hero. And of course, without Julia Jentsch's emotionally destroying performance, we wouldn't be here now. But for all of Sophie and all her life that is most important was her spirituality. She was devout, she was a Servant of God. She stood against the powers for however small she was, and inspired the underground, and the Allies, and soon, all of Germany, becoming one of their most beloved heroines.

She was a martyr. She died for what she believed in. Sure, it wasn't a religious act, but it was in completeness. That is why I made the banner. The two Sophies with the blood across the mouths, falling from their eyes. They may shut her up, but they will never shut up her cause. And the Cross. This is not a symbol of religion, no. It is showing you'd do anything for what you believe in. Sophie believed in justice and freedom. She saw this in the villages of the Eastern Block as a nurse. She saw the children, and their mothers. She knew of the atrocities going on, the disgusting secrets that were hidden from all the earth. And she fought to expose them, and save the people who never deserved any of it. She was a young woman who met her demise. She was a human who fought. She was an angel among demons, the light trying to destroy the dark. And she is one of the greatest lights in history.

So, who wants it?
