That was never my intention. I wanted to write stories where you can love and be loved in turn. Perhaps that was naïve of me, though, to assume the love you'd want would be romantic in nature...

[It did make him sad that his attempts had made Set unhappy instead, but he didn't let it distract him from the path before him. Most books always had romantic love as the main component as a happy ending, but Byleth knew that such things would never factor into his own, so why would it for Set?]

I apologise for that. I didn't mean to upset you or give you the wrong impression of yourself.
