To: All Heroes of Light
[ This letter comes in a purple envelope, sealed with the crest of the royal family of Aqures Ixen. Biggs may not reply to all answers. ]
RE: War
The content of this letter isn’t for everyone. Pretty sure the concerned parties will recognize themselves soon enough.
We got a report from what’s happened on the 03rd. I don’t know if you’re Heroes of Light. I know even less what Heroes of Light are supposed to be. But that’s not important. You’re people and you’re fighting in a war, whatever your reasons are. That’s what matters.
War isn’t pretty. People die. Sometimes people we care about, sometimes people we couldn’t give any less of a damn for. Some of you get it. Some of you don’t. On the 03rd, a great number of people we don’t care about died. We don’t even know their names; they’re only numbers on a list. You’ve had a chance to prevent more of these people from dying, but to do that you would have had to kill one of your own. Of course, you prioritized her safety and more of these nameless people did die.
I don’t care what you believe in, how things work back in your home world or whatnot. You’re not going to save anyone with poetry and flowers. If you can’t or aren’t willing to fight and kill when necessary, don’t get in the way of those who can do it. You’re being only a hindrance and nobody will applaud you for standing by some stupid moral standards.
Short version: if killing is too much for you, then stay home and wait for the Calamity to destroy the world.

You failed your job. If you're so eager to glorify what's happened, go give your fairy tale explanation to the 11-years old girl.

Yeah, that wave of Crystal is getting a lot closer and we are all feeling the pressure. But that means working together, not splintering more. You too. If you insist on seeing us as weapons, then we are the only weapon that's going to work on that Calamity. So don't set fire to half your arsenal by writing stuff like this, just because you don't feel in control.

But you didn't even try. You clung onto stupid ideals and got people killed because of it. Worst, you don't even question yourself and your methods. Rather than doing so, your first reply was to question me without an ounce of introspection. You're static and doomed to fail should such a situation like this happen again. Now stop with the show of righteousness and self-pity. I've heard enough from the likes of you.

And neither are you, as much as your ideals don't make sense to me.
