Private to Ananova

Forgive me for any intrusiveness, but does something trouble you, Princess?

Private to Ichabod

[crete_goddess]

Please, you're not intruding...

..Yes. Quite a few things. This...business, surrounding Ophelia.

Private to Ananova

[modern_truths]

You refer to the young woman that murdered that "L" person, yes? She may be bold and sure in her ability to evade the law, but rest assured, justice will be served.

Private to Ichabod

[crete_goddess]

..Ichabod---you keep away from her.

Do you understand me? Do not go near her--you have no idea how dangerous she is.

Private to Ananova

[modern_truths]

She cannot get away with this, Princess. Letting her would be a perversion of everything sacred the law stands for.

Private to Ichabod

[crete_goddess]

I understand your convictions---but you do not -know- what Ophelia is capable of, what will happen if she is too heavily provoked---

She will kill you. For senseless reasons, just as she threatened -my- life.

Please...I'm begging you...

Private to Ananova

[modern_truths]

She...she threatened you?

Private to Ichabod

[crete_goddess]

...Yes..

She seems to have abandoned it by now.

Private to Ananova

[modern_truths]

...Something must be done. This...this can't go on. How many more will she threaten? How many more will she kill?

There has to be some way to end this.

Private to Ichabod

[crete_goddess]

You're -right-, Ichabod...

But further provoking her is not the answer. It will never end, she becomes angry, and more people will be in -danger-.

Private to Ananova

[modern_truths]

Then what do you believe should be done?

Private to Ichabod

[crete_goddess]

I don't -know-!

I don't have the answers...I believe in justice. Above all things. I do not believe in death, nor killing, yet guilty many of us our! There -should- be justice. But how can that be, when circumstances warp it so?

When most who cry for justice truly want their petty revenge?

When situations worsen, no matter -what- road you take...

...I know not what -should- be done...

Private to Ananova

[modern_truths]

...Then I suppose this is one such moment when faith is needed. And yet...

I don't want you to get harmed, Princess. You or Jolly or any other innocent in this City. I don't want some...some murderer to threaten you any longer.

Perhaps this truly is a cry for petty vengeance. I've...no idea. Not at this point.

Private to Ichabod

[crete_goddess]

..Ichabod..

...I do not wish for you to be harmed. Nor Jolly, or..anyone. I...

Faith is needed. Yes. This...is always a hard time. For any society--if you call this...society. You and I know that...

...I will take care. And I want you to take care as well. Please.
