()M4A1||:...I would.
()Elisa||:Aren't you making the same choice here?
()M4A1||:...
()Elisa||:You never hesitate to save others. What bothers you is the sacrifices that others make for you. +You only ever step into the dark yourself so that everyone else can bask in the light.
()M4A1||:What's wrong with that?
()Elisa||:I'm just trying to tell you, magic that creates miracles always comes at a price. +They have helped you with part of that price, and it'll be up to you to pay off the rest. +They didn't sacrifice themselves for you. Rather, they chose to make a stand together with you.
