I didn't ask for this war. But once it started, I had to finish it.
|
Hands down, Kronika was the toughest enemy I ever faced.
|
All my tactics, my training, meant nothing against a god like her. In the end, it was a battle of wills.
|
It never occurred to me that for winning, I'd get her Hourglass.
|
At first, I hoped to right every wrong in history.
|
But then I figured out that doing it meant that I'd have to decide the fates of billions.
|
Picking who lives and who dies for eternity? It was going to kill my soul.
|
I'd end up no better than those old men who sent us off to war, not giving a shit about what would happen.
|
And that's not the man I want to be.
|
It's time to walk away, for good this time, leaving the pain and the ugliness behind.
|
After all I've been through, I've earned a little peace.
