[Damned if Kratos is going to take all the responsibility for this. Perhaps he hadn't done anything active; but his position was a different one, too.]
Neither of us trusted the other. Although apparently he's known all along.
[Yuan doesn't sound best pleased by this, like it's some personal offense against him that Kratos could do so.]
[He takes a step forward, bringing himself almost shoulder-to-shoulder with Kratos. Drawing some of the attention better. Kratos is being a fool, naturally. And Yuan does not want to talk about Martel. But Mithos...]
Mithos is past saving. But he was very much like you once, Lloyd. He didn't see the reasons people might let evil pass and say nothing. He saw only that evil was being done, and that half-elves were considered the worst of the world for no fault of their own, and he thought it was wrong, and he had the power to do something.
[Genis is biting his lip to keep from saying something, with Raine's hand on his shoulder. Yuan gives the two of them a deliberately passing glance, looking around the rest of the room.]
Make no mistake. He was a hero, once. The change happened gradually.
