Praying, Father?

Gilbert

Yes. Praying is all I can do.

For I am at fault for each death upon the cursed plain of Duscur.

Annette

You keep saying it's your fault, Father, but you're wrong.

Annette

His Highness doesn't blame you. Neither does King Lambert, I'm sure of it.

Annette

But...I guess that's not the issue for you, is it?

Gilbert

It was my duty to protect the royal family. I should have given my life to protect the king.

Gilbert

Even if His Highness has forgiven me, my knightly vows are still broken.

Gilbert

My knighthood is lost.

Annette

That's obvious from looking at you, Father. I think Mother understood it as well.

Annette

But before fleeing the country, I wish you had thought about your family, if only for a moment.

Annette

Even if the whole world had condemned you, we would always have been your allies...

Gilbert

I am sorry, Annette.

Annette

No... I told you before. I don't particularly want you to apologize.

Gilbert

Annette

Yes, Father?

Gilbert

Take this.

Annette

A bundle of letters... There are so many...

Gilbert
volume_up

Look inside and you will understand. Should the contents make you sad, please burn them.

Father! Oh, for the love of... He's done it again! But what have we here...
link
Annette
volume_up

Hm, just as I thought. Letters for me and Mother. And so many... But why, and how?
link
Annette

I suppose I'll have to read them if I hope to find my answers...
