->'''Natsuki''': I have to wonder- was this the moment I've been hoping and working toward all those years? Everyone involved with my mother's death is now dead. They deserved it for serving the Obsidian Lord, even if I did not have a more personal grudge against them. But my mother is still dead, and this triumph seems hollow, and I'm not sure if I got what I wanted in the end.
->'''Nao''': [[ArmorPiercingQuestion What]] ''[[ArmorPiercingQuestion do]]'' [[ArmorPiercingQuestion you want, Natsuki]]?
->'''Natsuki''': I actually don't know the answer to that question myself," Natsuki said. "Was it bringing justice to my mother's killers as the court system could not? I suppose that happened, although they didn't die because of what they did to my mother. Was it to get the personal satisfaction of ending their lives? I'll never know whether that would be enough for me, although I suspect it would not. Was it to prevent anything like this from ever happening again? I doubt I could send a message by eliminating a secret organization, and I've never been the kind of hero to save the world.
->'''Nao''': Neither am I.
->'''Natsuki''': So what about you, Nao?
->'''Nao''': Our quests may have the same motive in mind, but they're different in how we carry them out. Yours is a long journey with a disappointing ending, like playing a 30-hour role-playing game only to find that someone killed the final boss for you.
->'''Natsuki''': Are you saying it's about the journey rather than the destination?
->'''Nao''': ''Hell'' no. My quest is like one of those arcade games with the same level over and over, but without any challenge or risk of defeat. It was fun for a while but I eventually realized I was never getting anywhere. I think both of us sought our revenge to gain inner peace as a substitution for having our parents back, which is something we can never have. Unfortunately for us, this method won't soothe our pain.

->''...Father. At long last, I can face you again. I did as you always taught me, Father. I found a cause I could truly believe in. And I kept my faith. Since the day you were taken from me, I swore I would avenge you. And avenge you I did. And yet ... even now that my long journey has ended ... and I have done all that I set out to do ... why... why does my heart ... still ache with this hollow pain? What am I supposed to believe in now? What cause will carry me on from here? But this is something I must find for myself ... and until I do ... I will keep dancing.''
