Remind you of anything?


If you want to know what "All Will be Well" means, here's a clue for you:

From Wikipedia:
All Blue Lanterns are armed with a blue power ring, fueled by the emotion hope. Geoff Johns stated on ComicBloc that "the Blue Lanterns are the most powerful Lanterns...but there's a catch to it all..." Blue Lanterns must be near an active Green Lantern's power ring to tap into their own rings' full power. Otherwise, the rings are only capable of the default abilities of flight and the generation of a protective aura. This flaw is a result of the fact that the power of hope is nothing without the willpower to enact it. Blue rings must be fueled by true hope in order to operate at their user's command. For instance, when Hal Jordan hopes for world peace in an attempt to make his ring work, it detects his insincerity and remains uncooperative.

While under the influence of a nearby green power ring, Blue Lanterns have the ability to heal wounds. The ring's power can be supplemented with the hope of other living beings; for instance, Saint Walker and Warth were able to reduce a dying sun's age by 8.6 billion years because of the hope emanating from the inhabitants of a nearby planet. A blue ring can negatively impact the performance of rings on the opposite side of the emotional spectrum. It can neutralize the corruptive effects of red power rings, block the energy-stealing properties of orange rings, and drain the power of yellow power rings. Conversely, a blue ring can charge a green power ring to twice its maximum power level. This effect can also negatively impact a green ring, as close proximity to the blue central power battery will overcharge a green ring, causing it to implode (taking the user's hand with it). Blue power rings manifest their constructs by reading the target's psyche. For instance, when John Stewart attempts to apprehend Saint Walker out of anger, Walker's ring causes Stewart to see himself flying with his late wife (Katma Tui) in order to calm his rage. Geoff Johns also confirmed that blue rings grant precognitive visions to their wielders.
