[ She should be allowed to be a kid... BUT YEAH. Shadows back, baby.
The shadows wrap around Yuffie, and she'll find herself in the safest place in Tokyo. Across from her is Riko, whom you're escorting so that she can fulfill her destiny and die in the process.
Sorcerers exist to protect non-sorcerers. That is the mantra that you live by, and that is what carries you through all your missions. The steady maintenance of Tengen-sama is critical to the stability of Japan.
But Satoru had said no unwilling sacrifices, and despite your morality and big talk, you always put your family first. And now, that includes Riko. You've only known her for a scant couple of days, but you've both decided that you won't be her executioners. You'll find another way, because you're the strongest, and you always do.
[ speaking of suffering, the void is back, baby. before she can respond. and with it comes another memory -- she clues in pretty quickly that this is the girl he told her about before. she doesn't get the context behind this, but the unwilling sacrifice thing rubs her so insanely wrong she's already clenching her fists at her side as the memory starts out. she knows how it ends, but she grits her teeth as it plays out before her eyes ]
[ should have tried having peripheral vision, geto!! loser. she tenses further at "sacrifices are necessary" but doesn't refute it. but it's clear that it just sits wrong ]
The girl you you told me about, right?
[ quietly. they'd only just met, like her and sonon. ] Did you ever find the asshole who did that?
