I am often asked if I could forgive even the Empress herself for her part in the suffering of our people. What I think we should be asking, instead, is whether the Empress is capable of redemption. Yes. A thousand times yes. I believe that there is no troll beyond redemption. Were the Empress to walk up to me and ask for guidance in trying to be better, who would I be to deny her that? But she has to want it. We have to want it. You have to want it. That is the difference, the defining factor, at the end of the night. We cannot save those who dig their heels in and refuse to be saved.
I appreciate your maturity. I can see you are wise just from how you type, Citizen. Maturity is hard to come by in these times.
And I, in turn, appreciate your compliment. But I do not consider myself necessarily more mature than anyone else; Merely open to that which I do not already know.
A truly noble outlook. I could certainly gain to learn a thing or two via your ways.
