I did not choose it, but rather it chose me. Just as yours chose you. If you believe your belief set is new or unique, you're quite mistaken. It's an old belief set, nearly as old as mine.

The difference between ours is that mine can save, while yours has proven itself only capable of destruction time and time again. There are sacrifices required for Shijima, this is true. But none more than what is necessary. A Reason based on chaos, knowing no moderation, can only devour itself in the end. Can only leave a legacy of hatred in destruction as group after group start a suicidal rush towards domination.

See if you can take a look at the barren and dead world that lies beyond these walls. And know that alone can be the outcome of what you preach.
