[ah. there's a story there. and he owes her after this-- she files away the question for when it's her turn]
. . . she was everything the Abbey hated. Anger and ugliness and selfishness all wrapped up into one prickly ball of barbs and needles. They called her the Lord of Calamity, and preached the evils of her ways to everyone in the world.
Maybe that's why she was the best person in the world to actually fight against them.
[she sighs. brushes at her bangs with one hand]
I suppose I thought-- well. If something as "evil" as hatred and anger could inspire someone to free the world like she did, then maybe. . .
[living-- actually living, and not just going through the motions like she had for so many years-- was actually worth it]
Maybe a little pain isn't so bad. After all, pain like hers is proof that someone is alive. Without it, I guess all you get is Magillanica, who broke and then gave up in the face of adversity without even trying.
