Location: Battleship Grenoble

Madame Bonheur. I saw your face at the massacre. A massacre that was wanton and uneeded.

A massacre you did not condone but had to listen.

Tell me. Why, Marechal...did you not order our men to stand down? There were childen. Mere children. Did such innocence deserve such an end? Did they deserve death because of the sins of the parents?

You are highly decorated. You are respected by many, myself included. You proved you are fair, just.

But does loyalty mean you must cease to be humane? Throw your morals away?

That you must cease to be...human?

Emeline sighs.

This channel is secure. One of the few even Charles cannot access. So, Marechal.

Do you condone a Gallia that is no longer...human?

May you ever walk in the Light, Shizune.
