"Since you ignored my words in the previous message and continue to avoid me, I have no choice but to lay it all out here. Because responsibility for my people prevents me from remaining silent any longer."
"You've become very comfortable in the company of these dragons. Too comfortable, if you ask me. So, I want to remind you of one thing: they are not like us."
"I never thought this day would come, but it seems I really should remind you of the Platform's principles. I am convinced these principles exist for a reason. Integrity is the foundation of any movement, especially one that claims to have some kind of vision for the future. Let me quote."
"Right to Life: We positively affirm our shared recognition of the right to life of those across the sector, and the maintenance of necessary means to prevent infringement upon that right. Those who would violate this right are subject to the right of self-defense by the defender and its necessary force and/or extended measures from the Platform Tribunal."
"And now look at what your new friends are doing. And this isn't some kind of state propaganda; they themselves confirm their deeds. They nearly killed a child; they don't care about the lives of ordinary people—just to get to the figures they hate. Yes, this clearly demonstrates what truly drives them—not concern for the future of the people, but the insane hatred of butchers. The same as Maqius or Xenos, who would sell their souls to see the entire world they hate burn."
"Fine, you'd probably say. We must be flexible in our morality, for our cause is desperate, our enemies are powerful, and we must be willing to get our hands dirty. But have you considered the consequences of getting our hands dirty and associating with those who do such things? Have you considered that one of the main pillars of the Bundschuh is sympathizers and donations? Who would want to help those involved in the murder of children?"
"Fine, you'd probably say. Sometimes we have to sacrifice that, for the sake of something important. But... It wasn't important. They killed some bigwig, who will be replaced tomorrow by another, like a cog in a machine. It changed nothing. And their only justification is that the state will speed up the hunt for them, which they assume mean Kusari will make some mistakes."
"This, CS, isn't just foolish. These people are insane. They're a danger to themselves, to us, to everyone."
"And if I see them, in a fit of their crazed rage, opening fire on a civilian liner just because there's someone on the ship they hate... Well."
