“You think very highly of me, human. In a way, I suppose what you say is true. But don’t mistake me for some kind of saint. I don’t give a shit about Yvelia, and I don’t give a shit about Belikon’s war. You are a bargaining chip. I saw my only avenue to freedom, and I took it. Ask me what I would have done had I found you in that condition under any other circumstances.”
