"I did." I whisper. "I wanted to stop it... I could have stopped it... but I didn't." Exhales a ragged breath and close my eyes, a tear leaking from the corner of my eye.

"But you can still make it right. After everything that's happened, Korre never gave up on you. She insisted we help you escape the castle even though she knew it would slow us down and put her at risk. But when the time came to repay her loyalty, you let her go. There is still a chance to save her though. You OWE it to her to get up and go after her."

"I... can't."

Something snaps in me, and I grab Naberrie, hauling her up by the collar. "Listen to me right now! I've chased my delinquent of a daughter from one end of this fucking galaxy to the other! I've watched her make stupid decision after stupid decision, falling farther and farther from the path of right, and all the while, I have endured humiliation, pain, suffering, near death of multiple occasions, and worst of all, YOUR meddling! But in spite of all of that, I never gave up on her! I never sat back and decided enough was enough, and that it was no longer worth the effort to save her! Yet here you are, a little bruised and cut up, and you've completely fallen apart?! Korre is your surrogate daughter! She trusted you to keep her safe and you willingly failed her! You have a responsibility and you FAILED, all because why? You're sad your constant schemes finally landed you at the wrong end of an ass kicking? I'm sorry, but GROW UP, Senator! People lose sometimes! It happens! I've lost more than you can imagine! I lost my fucking leg to a zombie Wampa when I was a third of your age!!!" I poke her in the stomach. "And DON'T try to blame this on your shitty father! He poisoned you and made you barren? I had my uterus  ripped open by a Sith Witch! You aren't the only one who whose been through trauma! So stop acting like a victim, stop inflicting yourself upon everyone around you, and BE A FUCKING WOMAN!!!" I release her and throw her back down. "Because I'm going after Korre with or without you! I will NOT let this girl suffer as I suffered at the hands of Sith! She will NOT be torn apart and put back together like I was! Korre deserves better then that!" Sneers dismissively. "She deserves better then you." 

I look at Jerus, breathing heavily. It wasn't often I showed this much emotions. Usually I was the rock and Jakito was the emotional wreck. With nothing further to say, I stalk off towards where Iwan's body is. I'd rather deal with that bloody mess than Xan right now.
