>"Why are they the only ones who can help you? What can they do that nobody else can?"
[SIVIL] "They can set me free. The Emperor can. Only the Emperor can set me free."
'Set you free...?'
[SIVIL] "This is not the first time I've been alive."
Sivil opened the one eye he could and stared up at me.
[SIVIL] "I am mortal, but I am not normal. Because I am not, he will not let me die. Not until I've fulfilled my oaths. That's all I am, a warrior. Meant to fight, given life only to fight. The one thing I don't want to do. No wonder you defeated me so easily, using what I believe in against me."
'You're a pacifist.'
[SIVIL] "At heart."
'...You poor thing. The Trinity won't let you die, they keep bringing you back just to fight for them, because of the strength you didn't even ask for.'
[SIVIL] "Indeed. And all throughout the lives I've lived, I remember everything. It's because of that, I cannot resist. One cannot simply destroy what they've felt. Don't you see now?"
[SIVIL] "There's no choice for me in the matter. I've never been allowed to have a choice. Whether you kill me now, or they punish me for my failure with another death, I'll just be brought back again. So long as the Emperor wills it. And only he can finally set me free. That's what I'm fighting for. Fighting to earn."
'...'
[SIVIL] "So just finish me already. There's nothing else you can say or do."

>"What if I erased your memories and gave you a fresh start then? ...I can't do anything about your situation, not now. But if what truly pains you is knowing, then I can remove that pain at the least."
>"You let yourself be controlled under the threat of life by a tyrant, rather than destroy that tyrant. You tolerate all the awful things you see. It's up to you to reclaim your life. I could only help with that."
