-Shrugs-

I do not think it is helpful for me to dwell on it. There were far bigger things to worry about when it happened.

That — yes. You're right.

-But how could he know you're right?..... He wasn't there.....-

-She figures he's just trying to be polite-

-Nibbles at her fish-

-Looks up-

How do you not let it bother you?

(it's a brief one, and not exactly firm - before she goes to go stand back up to her usual posture)

It was seventy years ago. Eventually things just... get number and fuzzier with time.

Some things, anyway.

At some point I realized I had to move on. So I did. I did not want to sit and wallow.

How do you just... forget about something like that? Like it's a phone number?

...I probably should, shouldn't I? I am a war animal.

(wow, uh... really?)

I did not forget about it. I remember realizing they were gone very clearly.

But I made a choice to bring myself out of that hole. It was not instant by any stretch of the imagination. It took time, which I had. I told myself I would do what they would have expected me to do, so I did. I applied myself and worked to serve others.

It blunted it long enough for me to make peace with it.

There will be two fronts - one that will bear the brunt of the demon's army for a feint, and the other that will attack him from behind.

Which will you fight in?

The events of your past, you mean?

Coming to terms with them is not dismissing them. You acknowledge that they happened and that they were important, but you recognize that you cannot let them consume you.

...The frontal one, I think. That is... what I was made for, after all...

That will be the safest place, if you stay behind the Heroic Spirits and True Ancestor.

(again, not condescending, just flat)

...That is what I will do, then... And I will help. I know I have not helped much, but if I can just get a decent shot at them...

It has to happen eventually. If it does not, you will fall apart. You can only carry grief for so long.

That is all you need to do. There is no use trying to force things along faster than they need to go.
