[b][color=662d91][h3]K E N J I T A K E D A[/h3][/color][/b][sub]Back on the ship:[/sub] Interacting with: [@Adeline] Genevieve [hr] Kenji let out a breath, he didn't feel his message was getting across. [color=662d91]"My reasons are my own."[/color] He retorted firmly. Then with a sigh his gaze fell to the floor where he search for his next words. Eventually speaking up, even softer again. [color=662d91]"I will kill those men, and women, who have done me no harm, who's innocence I cannot judge. But if I am to make that choice, to go and take their lives, is not the least I can do be weighed down by the consequences?"[/color] He ask, letting a heavy pause follow. Then, more assuredly he confirms. [color=662d91]"We will take the ship or die trying. Blood will stain the sea, and their families will weep. This path has been chosen. To kill without further thought, that is the act of the beast - but to name the deed, to grieve it before it is done... that is the last thread of honour a man may keep in an act that contains none."[/color] His words were seemingly just as much for himself as Genevieve.
