[Her first instinct is to proclaim how wrong the thought is but it's when she feels the hurt through their bond that Mira pauses and thinks. She can't think like that or lash out otherwise, it'll just be worse between the three of them. No, the woman has to listen and choose her words carefully. Slowly, she stands and looks at Emet-Selch straight in his eyes, without a single doubt of fear.]
I have always seen myself as a sinner, will not proclaim better than anyone else. Nor will I ever speak of having no guilt for the actions I have done; 'tis something that is best owned rather than forgotten or so in my opinion.
[Her voice is calm, putting a hand over her heart, trying to keep herself steady just in case another wave of emotion comes crashing down but trying to hold her own at bay. All the pain and despair, the worry and sorrow that is not needed right now. Not when the tension is high and rightfully so.]
If you consider yourself toothless, then why are you showing us the opposite? Instead of running away, why do you stand your ground? If anything, you simply are not the kind of man who lies down like a dog at the heels of his master. Nay, you're bloody brilliant when you wish to be and damned determined to accomplish a goal no matter what it costs to you.
[It's kind of funny how they're similar in that aspect.]
But listen to me when I say this: you have every right to be angry. Every right to grieve, I will not take that away from you. But we do not know what would happen if we were to comply. This world's laws seem to be different from our own and we cannot assume that it will work as such.
[If there is a emotion that Mira has unknowingly linked through both Bonds, it's determination. That feeling of not yielding...and yet not smothering. That's how she feels.]
