"I-... No I didn't?" Isa blinked. "Griffith was in a relationship he didn't want to be in, so I got him out of that."
"And who gave you the right to do that, exactly?" Chastity asked.
Isa blinked, turning to Chastity. "Stay out of this, it's between me and Mirai, okay?"
Chastity couldn't hold back a chuckle. "Oh, right, of course. It's only the fate of the entire planet, nothing to do with me at all."
Isa stammered, "T-T-that's not what I meant..."

“…I’m not against people being happy, I…I feel like stopping the war should be enough and everything else afterwards should be up to everyone, let them decide how they want to live, just maybe without kingdoms, maidens and elements influencing their lives. Everyone can live equally that way.” Mirai suggested

"Okay, let's do something like that, then?" Isa guessed.
"...Hey, Chastity?" Hannah asked.
"Yes?" Chastity asked.
"... There's something I want to do, you mind coming with me?" Hannah asked.
"Is it something you need me for, in particular?" Chastity asked.
"You're the one with all the emotions." Hannah said.
"And you're still angry about that, but not enough for it to be a priority for you to act on." Chastity commented, adjusting her glasses. "Very well, what do you want to do?"
"... I want to know how that Prince was feeling." Hannah decided. "... Before I make a decision."

"...Why would you want to know that?" Mirai asked her.

"... Well, from what I put together... Deborah made some kind of deal that meant the Prince kept reviving.
When I saw how he looked, when he was there... and, how nobody seems to know what his name is... I don't think he was happy." Hannah said. "Every time he came back... there was less of him."
"... So, how will his emotional state impact your decision making?" Chastity asked.
"I... don't know if reviving Mariam or any of the people who died would be the right thing to do." Hannah said, "I don't know if anything would be a good idea.
It's like everything has some consequence you can't predict."

"...When Isa did her thing, people who died like Samuel's wife, the last Lakhani king and Mnemosyne seemed like themselves, it's different from the Prince who had his demon dad thing going on and from what he told me, the way he was born wasn't natural at all, he was surprised that kingdom still existed in Isa's world." Mirai pointed out.

"But they weren't aware that they had died, were they?" Chastity asked. "...Rather, in that constructed reality, were they even the same people they had been before?
I have my doubts that you can be an accurate judge on what those people were like. You never had the chance to see them yourself, had you?"
"Hey, why are you arguing against us?" Isa asked, prodding a finger at Chastity.
"Because I don't agree with your world." Chastity stated. "By removing all of those details, you had effectively destroyed the one that everyone was living in and created an approximation of what it could have been."
"I-... that's not true." Isa stepped away.
"It's a world that overwrites what everyone feels and wants, it's not something I can support." Chastity stated.
Hannah looked off to the horizon. It had only just because night on the continent, but here, so far away from everything else... the sun was rising. Nobody needed any kind of power to be aware that Hannah was feeling rather conflicted, but still.

Mirai looked at the two, feeling uncertain about what he should say, both parties had a point but din't know how to phrase it and then turned to Hannah.
"...Hannah?" Mirai asked

Hannah didn't look at anyone. "... I've been doubting Isa's plan since Abraham spoke about... all that stuff.
I never believed in this maiden crud anyway."

"...Can't we find some compromise that will make the two of you happy? Stopping the war and saving the planet from dying is what Isa wants, and letting everyone decide what they do want to do with their lives without changing anything about it is what Chastity wants, we can make that happen easily, right?" Mirai asked Isa and Chastity.

"It should be possible." Chastity said.
"Really? I don't think so." Isa contradicted her, she stepped forwards. "Mirai, you can't seriously be trusting what she's saying, she's constructing arguments with the intent on making you all disagree with me."
"While not wrong, you're phrasing that maliciously." Chastity took the opportunity to point out, looking unamused. "I'm making these arguments so I can share my own opinion.
It's natural for people to want others to agree with them, especially when every life on the planet is at risk like this."
"... Look, Mirai, where did I go too far last time? I want to hear your opinion. When I started overwriting peoples lives, or whatever? What was it that made that happen?" Isa asked. She stepped closer to him and Hannah, holding a hand out. "I already agreed to make sure not to delete anyone, what else do we need to do?"

"...I don't know what was the thing that caused those people to disappear. I'm not against what you or Chastity is saying, I just want to make sure that the correct steps are made so I won't have to rewind time again and do this all over again. I say we focus on the present and do something about the things that are going on now instead of erasing stuff that happened in the past that could of contributed to the freaky stuff that happened to Horatio and everyone else." Mirai said, he sounded calm but deep down, he was feeling frustrated at how everyone was acting right now.

"...Honestly, I agree with Mirai here." Chastity stated. Undoubtedly, she was aware of how Mirai was feeling, as she paused for a moment before sighing. "... There's nothing immediate happening in the future, so perhaps we should take a break and come back to this topic when we're calmer?"
Isa blinked, she stepped back. Chastity's suggestion seemed to only aggravate her.

Mirai had nothing to say as he looked at Hannah in response.

Hannah continued to stare at the rising sun for a second.
"... Hannah?" Chastity asked.
"Huh? Oh, sure." Hannah said.
"... Well, while we're here. Did the Kraven's promise to give us elements?" Isa asked. "I know we had more important things going on, but... we might as well get a few of those while we're at it."
"Are you kidding?" Hannah asked.
"No, no, hear me out. Aera has clairvoyance and we haven't heard the whole story about Horatio yet." Isa stated, with her hands raised. "If we want to calm down, we might as well get something done in the mean time."
