Bittersweet is the word I was looking for.

Alas, I have to report another typo:

And the fact that is was not very populated, at least not by humans, was an additional benefit.
Should be "it".

It's sad, but good - bittersweet. And that's not a bad thing at all.

OW.

That hurt to read. I could see the inspiration from Iroh's Tale.

Talk about a mood whiplash.

And, er, on a less poignant note: 'sharing all that has happened since last year,'
I feel like the 'has' should be a 'had.'

Not that it takes away too much, but, y'know.
Being useful, and such.
