The story

Hope's embodiment is a great bird, and like hope itself it is drawn to the desperate. Adara was born from the first prayer ever uttered in darkness — the moment a living thing looked at the impossible and chose to believe anyway.

Adara is the gentlest of the entities, but its power is staggering: a blue ring near a green one is the spectrum's greatest amplifier, and Adara is the reason why. It does not fight; it sustains. Hosts of Adara find their hope made tangible, a light that refuses to go out.

The Blue Lanterns revere Adara as the heart of their mission — proof that hope is not naive, but a cosmic force with teeth.
