[A long pause.]

You don't know me very well, so I'll forgive you just this once. I have little tolerance for mistakes.

Or the people who accuse me of making them.

No, I don't know you. You don't know me either. Both of us are getting second-hand impressions. I trust Linden, and it's hard for him to lie when you're in his mind.

None of that matters. What matters is what you choose to do here. There's enough violence without you killing without reason.

I'm not some mindless sadist, Mr. Yagami. I kill to make this peninsula a better place. To protect it from the reign of the Fourth.

Some people would call my actions noble.

[andeatit]

I don't know much about your world, but killing for the sake of religion has never ended well in mine.

You're not mindless. I believe that. That's why we're talking now. What do you worry will come out of the Fourth reigning? What do you think will come from the Fog winning instead?

[marcato]

The Fog intends to make this world into a paradise for Her children. Elias is a sloppy little boy who would crush all of us in his fists if he were able.

It's not about abstract ideals. It's about the fate of this world.

Surely a man like you understands.
