—It’s sad to hear. I acquired this position under unfortunate circumstances. Well, what’s done is done; I had no malicious intent...

—Is this about that previous mission?
Alaria nodded affirmatively.

—Following Alaria’s gaze, Klin also noticed the scars. —You know, when we talked on Wednesday, it felt like the conversation was only about me and Sanex, and that wasn’t right. You said that, unlike me, you’re alone and don’t have a family that would suffer if you were gone, but I don’t think that’s the best way to look at the situation. At the very least, I wouldn’t want anything to happen to you. Your path is your path, but close relationships complement and strengthen us. Since you’re fighting such a hopeless enemy, I think it would be great if, instead of just logic, you also had the determination to return to the people you care about, the people you’re protecting. And I hope that even our alien world can eventually become a welcoming home for you. That’s just my thought.
—Thank you, Klin, I truly appreciate your words,” the former inquisitor said, giving the knight a warm smile. “Having such connections is indeed very important. And I’m glad that during my time here, I’ve at least made one. But you’re wrong if you think I’m embarking on this journey with the intention of dying a heroic death. It’s not that I don’t want to return, or that I don’t have plans for the future. It would be a bit foolish to arrive in a new place only to get killed by a dragon six months later, don’t you think?” The Tanarian smiled gently and shook her head. “So don’t worry, I’m looking to the future with hope. Otherwise, I wouldn’t be here right now. I just understand all the risks.
