At the mention of his death, her eyes close tightly; for a moment she does not speak, only tries to take in the rest of his words. Whether or not he has made peace with it does not change the emotion of it... but this was not the same rejection she had once faced.
He had time, as had she. Funny, to be allowed to have it, outside of all of those years.
"I am... aware of what you speak. I saw it in a vision here, not so long ago. It is not something... easily made peace with. Please... do not blame yourself for the war, for all that befell us. You survived then... and all I can hope for you now is that you can continue do so, away from that universe. That you can... discover a path that just isn't cleaning up after the ruin your parents left for you, and seek your happiness. You deserve so much more."
She says finally, opening her eyes to look at him once more.
"... as for what future in mind that reality may have for me, I know not, beyond... that it surely will only lead to more pain and darkness, if I am present and bound to it. That is why I, too, am seeking a different path, while I am able to so. While I am still... myself."
