[b]Saber[/b]

A new man had arrived. He appeared to be Japanese, wearing a suit and tie and looking somewhat weary, though Saber was uncertain. He posed his own scenario, and it was not particularly something Saber liked. No-one on board such a boat deserved to be sacrificed. If she was to lead them, and choose who would survive, it was her duty to protect them and serve them. As such, she could not merely abandon those who had been left behind. If they could not board the boat, then...

"I would put as many people on the boat as I am able," she began, "And then, I would remain behind with those who were unable to board it, and do whatever I am able to save them as well. It is my duty to protect and serve, and to abandon them to death is not the action of a knight."

She paused for a moment, glancing towards Vash as he left, to head towards the wall of supplies. "... I do not believe that it is possible to protect the innocent without killing their attackers. And there are some who steep themselves so deeply in evil that they do not deserve anything less then death. But Vash's ideals are noble."

As Sorin began to speak, her eyes narrowed. There was no question of what she would do. For him to speak as if no-one else had faced hardship, he knew nothing. Nothing at all. She had faced so much, and... even in her moments of deepest despair... she was never going to turn her back on the duties of a knight. The defense of the innocent. If greater and greater evils attacked, the only thing that would be done was to destroy them to defend those in need. She had already faced such trials... and no, she would not simply cease to perform her duties. She had once wished to erase her kingship in order to do what she thought would save them... but in spite of lingering regrets she did no longer. Saber would not abandon the protection of the innocent, nor her ideals of what a king's duty should be.

Saber could feel further anger... how dare he simply dismiss all those present as if they had never felt hardship themselves? To simply espouse his poison? She opened her mouth, but he simply began to leave.

Saber began to believe it was for fear of having his argument defeated.

"Your 'truth' is nothing but poison."

With that, Saber turned away. She did catch the viking man's own argument, and while he seemed to feel quite like she felt, the scenarios he described seemed entirely insane and difficult to comment on.

... And then there was a little girl, in a strange hat with eyes. Another child? Why did this observer continue to bring in children? All this scenario did was place them in danger.

"... I... do not know," she said, in response to the little girl's strange comment. She wasn't sure what to make of that... "... However, do not be afraid, I won't let you be harmed."

She outstretched a hand towards the girl.

... Well that was kind of lame. The pale guy just walked off before anyone could argue back at him? Jeez, that's not how you did an argument. Nonon did think people who argued with her were obnoxious or stupid, because they were, but frankly the other people were being a lot less dumb then he was. What was all that crap about truth or whatever? It didn't make any sense, he was just a moron. And besides, acting like no-one else faced any hardship... What a moron! Nonon didn't know about anyone else, but being without Satsuki was pretty terrible...

... And that ship scenario was just plain ridiculous.

"Okay, who the hell makes a ship and doesn't give it enough lifeboats for more then half the people on it?" she asked, folding her arms, "I dunno what people do when they're making cruise ships, but I'd guess they'd try and put on plenty of lifeboats, enough to match the amount of people who're supposed to be on the boat. This sounds just as bad as the [i]Titanic[/i]."
