It is not your fault. Even if you know it logically, I'll say it once again - hearing someone assert much outside of your own head can make it feel less overt...even if the thought will still remain.
[ Dainsleif speaks from experience - the place being how it is means that even their efforts would have halted. In addition, he knows the feeling...Annette had been sleeping in the very room he and the others were in. ]
...'If time allowed' indeed.
I have a feeling that they would at least appreciate the sentiment, if they could hear you say that.
Verily? [She exhales slowly, and sets down the rabbit. Time to let it go. It is not the first time she's failed to save someone, impossible as it may have been to keep Annette safe. But, she feels better somehow now]
'Tis a miserable world we hath found ourselves in. I am used to murders and violence and senseless actions by villains of the world. Yet, there is a heavy weight with every death that takes place here.
[ This Dainsleif does mean; at the least it can ease a bit of the pain, if his words do reach. If that's possible, then that's enough for now. ]
I understand.
Perhaps it is the circumstances that these occur in them that make them feel ever the more frustrating. As full of injustice the world normally is, we can at least count on much more to try to tackle it. Here, we are hampered - and in some cases - left without.
All we have are who we are at our core. But, sometimes it might not feel enough. At least, for now.
...nay. But as thou said, we must tackle it head on. Injustice after injustice. Even if we fail...'tis better than never trying to begin with.
[She exhales slowly, unwinding those dark angry feelings one by one. Regret. Rage. Guilt. It was not enough this time, to want to do better. But they can do better next time. And the time after that. Surely...]
"Better than to try than to not have tried at all", indeed.
[ Dainsleif takes pause, hearing those words.
It makes him think of his efforts, when he tried his best to save his brethren, pulling out all the stops he could...he took the failure hard, but he still would have wanted to try, even knowing if it was certain. So, he nods. ]
...Taking to heart these words can be steadying, instead of allowing the situation to dim the light of hope inside. I can already tell it's having a positive effect.
I do not like getting too deep in my own head. It only leads to trouble. So...thank you. [It feels better, speaking to someone, so the noises in her head can be blocked out]
[ Dainsleif knows full well about the dangers of such things; he does it everyday, but that is why he can find ways to refocus, at times. There is simply no other choice. ]
...Let's look forward to the day where we don't find ourselves bogged down by this wretched place, in every sense of the word.
