Few things are that easy in most places. But in this case, I didn't mean that there are particular rules or conditions that would keep us from our homes.

... did you not have a chance to be, where you came from before this? I think it... depends on how you grew up too.
No...I had a short, unconventional life, much of which kept me confined outside of my will for the furthering of corrupt political agendas. I lived...believing, up until the end, that I was someone who could easily be replaced or forgotten, by virtue of the reasons behind my birth.

But as long as it was for my own reasons, even if I hurt myself in the process, I was always happy to make sacrifices for the people around me.
[Sounding sad, Piety crouches and presses his hand into the snow.]
I don't want...to hurt anyone, least of all by my own actions. I've made that mistake in the past, leaving my friends behind in anguish, and I don't want to do it again. There are people here who care about me just as much as I care about them, and that's an honor I don't intend to take for granted.

It's alright. As long as I can continue to help those around me...I don't have any reason to be sad.

.... you haven't thought about helping yourself, even now?

That's not true here. You know that, right? I'm sure Ishirin-san has told you but -
You won't be replaced or forgotten. So please don't try to sacrifice yourself or... I think that sort of thing will only leave sad memories behind.

... mm, okay. As long as you know that, then I'm content. But I'll come back every now and then for the periodic reminder, okay?
