I will try to...show him...that I mean him no harm. But that takes time and I'm not sure if he sees my actions. He lost his brother - the last of his kin - by my hands. I understand his reticence in giving me an audience.

[All of it hurts. Huaisang is someone he loves; someone he considers a friend. Now he feels the man's hatred.]

I can only imagine that I followed my father's orders and that said orders flew in the face of Mingjue's morals. I have long wanted to be accepted by my father.

I know that is impossible now.
