"Like it this way? Not particularly, no. The pain I keep for your benefit, and the benefits of others. For me, the pain is a reminder of the past and why I do what I do now. My life of hate and lust for power blinded me to something that I truly wanted. Because of my blindness, I lost what that treasure was. Now, the treasure has returned to me, but it belongs to someone else. I watch as my daughter seeks comfort from another, all the while I am left wondering what could have been."

"This pain, is indescribable. The pain of a life lost, lover killed and above all, daughter I can never hold. It is mine to bare, yet learn from it. I use it to spur my drive in the endeavors I have undertaken. To keep me from reverting to the life lost, a true monster to this world." Armata's eyes turn from the windows and focus back on Prad.

Imperia remains completely silent, though she wants to say a great many things.
