[Angel listened to his words patiently. It seemed a horrible fate, to live forever, to suffer eternally for trying to do the right thing. After Ardyn finished speaking, the small woman approached him. She stood before him, quiet for a long moment, before holding her hand out to the man.]

Thank you, for being honest, Ardyn. I... do not know if it is forgiveness you seek, but if that is the case, then yes, I do forgive you. But... if you ask me, what happened to you is cruel. You only wanted to do right. That is more than I can say for myself, at least.
