[The way Rinwell looks, the way she speaks every last word—it makes his heart feel like it's in a vice. It's like his chest is being completely crushed by the weight of her sadness.
He can't even begin to fathom what feelings are driving that sensation; he just knows that he needs to find a way to bring the light back to her expression. Somehow. He can't help but feel that everything he's saying is making it worse.
...How could he feel like he's doing anything right when he can see the tears welling in her eyes.]
He-Hey, I'm... That's not—Rinwell... [Ugh. He knows he can be unintentionally insensitive sometimes, but he really is trying here!
He's not sure if he should stay put or do something more; he's frozen a bit in place.] It won't be the same! Maybe it would be if you'd gone through with it. But we're here with you. It's not just about revenge, it's... it's about making sure the things that happened don't happen again.
[Not the way Almeidrea took her family away. Not the experiments. Not the way they saw the people of Niez hollow right before their very eyes. They're ensuring a future for the people of Mahag Saar by taking down Almeidrea, not just chasing revenge.
(Not that it helped Law feel better in Cyslodia doing the very same, but he hopes... he desperately hopes that Rinwell can be better than he was.)]
