[ It's hard when your world operates on tropes. To be fair, she did commit genocide so. Maybe not so unfitting. ]
You would think, hm? [ She asked, though her tone is not abrasive. It is not a sore spot, mostly, because though she had temporarily left Meridian, that was a feature of her history, rather than her conviction. ]
How could one be a true villain, with nobody to terrorize, dear? [ She asked, though her tone is mostly chiding, joking. ] Though there would be a new world -- I do not presume that I would be left to my own villainous ways -- if one were to follow Zenith. Besides, I cannot believe that the Last Dawn has come yet in mine, and if it is -- I want to bring it back, before I give up on it all.
[ There's a sad smile, to accompany that, and her fingers twist the bracer at her wrist. ] I learned a hard lesson once, and there are paths that even villains should not take. To do so is to... cross the line from villainy into madness.
[ A line she had already crossed, her tone implies. How does one earn redemption, when doing Good to do so means that you're doing good to seek redemption? ]
