[ The room behind her is ensconced in darkness, and only her face and neck are visible, lit only by the cold light of her phone. She's clearly apprehensive, and uncertain, filled with new doubts, and worries.   This is not a post she had ever thought she would have to make, but now, with Hope announcing the safety of the temples (safety that comes with a price, she believes), she has no real choice.  She swallows, suddenly all nerves. ]

I know it's tempting, but...

[ She licks her lips, expression pained for a moment before she shakes her head, as if giving up on something.  ]

This is for the best.

[ ...Maybe. ]

[ He doesn't say it like a threat, but like an apology. He's been in that place, he's been the one who went too far, the one who was so deep in blood that it was easier to go through, feeling like his way was the only way.

He was stopped, but it was already too late, and there's no reason to think that things won't be the same here; that it won't already be too late. ]

If you're still alive when this is over... I understand your motives, your reasons. You may still find forgiveness with me.
