If I have to choose between my life and the lives of the people I hold dear or even the lives of the people I have promised to protect... it is not even a choice.

[ Survival does not concern him much. But perhaps that's not a surprise considering what he's been through and what he's been through. Or the culture he was raised in. While he tries not to throw his life away pointlessly... there are things which are worth staking his life on. ]

If I survive and lose everything I hold dear, everything I fight for... what good is it?
