[There are a few drops of ink on the page, followed by something scratched out beyond legibility. A few moments later, Riku writes something below:]

If you had to choose between a friend dying or having to destroy the person who's causing it, even if they're just as important... which would you choose? It's not like death here's permanent, but I don't think that changes much.

[There's another pause, followed by a soft sigh. After that, nothing.]

Think you could bring yourself to kill a woman, then? Don't see myself that you've got it in you.

No, probably not. But someone's going to have to do it.

Likely there's types around you might hire. Not meaning myself, of course--but. Others. Nasty business...

Yeah, but I don't want to hire someone to finish her off.

There's still time to figure things out, but either way it'll be complicated.

Not complicated at all, really! What if you just reversed the process, like? Siphon the memories back into the dyin' lad, using some type of...memory...siphon......

Aye, just kill her and be done with it.

I can't do it. Not now.

Even if I should, it's not that easy.

And I don't think the less of you for that, lad.
