The narrator regrets as well that she didn't become friends with Era Rose, when she had the chance, so she probaply wants Era to read this story. She was fascinated of her drawings and her beauty as well.

Tone: The tone is kind of sad, the way the narrator describes Era, and how they used to bully her. Even though Eras life already was purgatory, they made it it to hell.
