"Everything in this world has its destiny. All who live are destined to live, and all who die are destined to die. Since fate has ordained that I be a traitor and rebel, then I must have the resolve of one! Since fate has ordained an age of chaos, then there can be no peaceful world!

"...That still can't be us. We above all others can't..."
"Then let me keep clinging to this. Otherwise, won't all this learning I've amassed have been for nothing?"
