Surely He is more important.

Re: 430 probably

[temperedinpride]

His existence is important. If we can summon Him without sacrifice or need for you to be part of Him, is that not for the better?

Re: 430 probably

[rainshaveceased]

How would we achieve that?

Re: 430 probably

[temperedinpride]

That is what we mean to solve. With infinite time and the resources of our allies, we are sure to find a solution.

Re: 430 probably

[rainshaveceased]

Then we should focus on finding said solution before concerning ourselves with possibilities opened by it.

Re: 430 probably

[temperedinpride]

I do not mean to accept anything less than saving all our people. You are included.

[hey attacking him in his own language is rude? how is he supposed to argue back?]

...Very well.

Re: 430 probably

[temperedinpride]

[Get wrekt.]

Good of you not to argue. I will not insist you take any actions. But you should at least consider new possibilities, and what you want of them.

Re: 430 probably

[rainshaveceased]

You say that like it's easy or simple.

Re: 430 probably

[temperedinpride]

Of course it is neither of those things. Does it being complex and difficult deter you?

Re: 430 probably

[rainshaveceased]

Of course not. I just have to question whether such an undertaking is even worth the effort.

Re: 430 probably

[temperedinpride]

....

Are you afraid?

Re: 430 probably

[rainshaveceased]

...Why would I be afraid?

Re: 430 probably

[temperedinpride]

I can think of a myriad of reasons regaining your ability to remember things while losing the purpose of being Zodiark's heart would be daunting.

Re: 430 probably

[rainshaveceased]

[...sigh]

You are correct, of course.

Re: 430 probably

[temperedinpride]

Do you wish to talk about it?

Re: 430 probably

[rainshaveceased]

If I say I do not, will you just coerce me to talk anyway?

Re: 430 probably

[temperedinpride]

I would urge you to talk of it with someone but certainly not coerce you.

Re: 430 probably

[rainshaveceased]

Then no. I do not wish to speak of it. Not with you or anyone else.

Re: 430 probably

[temperedinpride]

Might I ask from what stems this reluctance?

Re: 430 probably

[rainshaveceased]

Do you feel comfortable speaking of your fears?

Re: 430 probably

[temperedinpride]

No. But that does not mean I fail to voice them.

Re: 430 probably

[rainshaveceased]

Then perhaps you are simply a stronger man than I.

Re: 430 probably

[temperedinpride]

I would never say that. You are far stronger to carry what you have.

But it takes a measure of trust to bear your heart and your fears. I have plenty of trouble sharing them. But I make the effort, for they cannot be addressed if they stay within.

Re: 430 probably

[rainshaveceased]

This is what I meant by coercion. You are making me sound entirely unreasonable.
