On March 15, 2019, an Australian terrorist conducted attacks on two mosques in New Zealand during Friday prayers, causing deaths and injuries before being apprehended.

The massacre - livestreamed on social media - lasted less than twenty minutes, but each victim had a story spanning decades, sometimes even longer than their own lives.

These stories appeared diverse from different people across different worlds, yet when the terrorist aimed his weapon, they seemed very similar.

These are the events of the last Friday. At least the last for some.
