"Perhaps. I don't know if he could forgive someone who served and empowered ShinRa for so long, however...or who killed so many for them. Perhaps we'll find out...though again, that is hardly up to us. Who appears and who leaves in these worlds we're pulled to against our will seems to be up to fate."
He looks up at Cloud at the other man's words, listening intently...and then shakes his head after a moment. "I can't say whether it is or not, I suppose. I don't know any other way to be. I was never...particularly encouraged to develop a sense of self, a will and ambitions of my own. When you make a sword, you don't want the sword to decide who it cuts. I know a person is supposed to be more than orders and what other people tell them, but I was never meant to be a person. Just a weapon." A pause as he looks down, seeming to search inside himself for his thoughts. "But if living my life for others makes me weak, then...I still prefer it to the strength ShinRa taught me to have."
