I had to do something, that was the one thing I could be sure of. If I had ruined humanity's last safe refuge, I was the one who should go and fix it – a simple matter of justice, of actions and consequences. So what options did I have? Begging the rest of the alliance to join my madman's quest and help me save the city? It's hardly a matter of wanting, Nenya had said yesterday. Rather what we can afford. They couldn't afford an unprepared attack.
