Fun fact: The capital "H" that comes with the calligraphy font I used was kind of hard to read, so I went and made my own!
Anyhow, Hope was a popular guess along with Life and a few others along the same vein. I knew it wasn't going to be a HUGE surprise when her identity was revealed - I have smart readers and you all picked up on the angle I was going for considering the foreshadowing you'd been given (ie Fear's reaction to her namecard, Death's disdain for the vices around him).
But why Hope and not Life/Time/Mercy/etc? They were all good options, but I had one particular final line in mind for this comic and it could ONLY be delivered by Hope...
