Saber let out a small sigh. What Archer had said... it was true. If someone threatens others and cannot be halted in any other way, then there was little other choice then to kill them. However... it was not simply a hero's duty to kill those who threatened others. A hero was meant to conduct themselves honorably, to uplift others around them, those they fight alongside. For those who could not protect themselves. For honor. For glory. These were the things a hero fought for. It was not simply about killing your enemy, but it was about all the people you saved by doing so. She could not dismiss Archer's statements, but she could take issue with the way it was presented.

"Even if you must slay your enemy," she began, glancing from Vash, to Archer, "It isn't about the death you have caused. It's about the people you have saved, the ones you fight to protect. It's about those who fight alongside you. You must uplift your allies, with honor and glory on the battlefield. It's not the act of killing that you must place your focus on, though a life must not be taken lightly. It's the act of saving the lives of those in danger."

Saber knew of the hardship Archer had faced, and how it had changed him. That's why everything here was so very, very important to him. However... Sorin had approached, and presented his hypothetical situation. Saber narrowed her eyes.

"If such a person cannot limit themselves to those who threaten them, if such a person attacks the innocent," she replied, "Then there is no question. They must be stopped."
