[ coward.

she listens, and she has to wonder: ]

Are these your regrets?

[shaft]

Yes, and no. There is no war without sacrifice, but it's easy for me to say that, living in a manor with no concern of wages.

But maybe we should've just surrendered, if we were going to lose anyway. Is independence worth all that sacrifice? I don't know.

[wisterin]

Did you agree with the reasoning behind the war? Did you want your country to be part of what that stood for?

Would the people under you have wanted it?

[ there's a reason they were independent in the first place, isn't there? ]

[ me closing my eyes as i try to sort out 3h plot ]

Some wanted to side with the Empire, some wanted to resist.

Trying to align a country's worth of people is no easy task.

[ i'm sorry, spoon. i love you. ]

It isn't, but that's why leaders of nations are as incredible as they can be terrible.
