( He means it and while he sounds as gentle as ever, there's a warning edge to his voice, )
Have I mentioned I'm in an army back home? We're fighting a very important war and... many will die and that's our burden as the living.
And even if it hurts and makes us sad, we have to take everything we feel to heart and not for granted because it's the pain we feel right here ( --he raises a hand to his chest-- ) that separates us from those that can't feel compassion or reason. So don't give up and give in.
You might think it's weak but I think your name is beautiful and strong. So live up to it, "Himeko." Just like Alisha did.
