If Michiru appears here, that is…she helped us. Even if it was to her own benefit, she did it because she cares. She kept doing it even when it didn’t benefit her. That is the true face of humanity. They’re weak, loud, and while the lands soak up the blood of their conflict…their fleeting lives build on one another. They learn and less blood falls. Until none at all.
There are shades of gray to them that to us…immortal and otherwise is black and white. They’re not perfect. [He gestures widely, indicating the entire world.]
But nothing living is. I barely understand this much about them. But I will watch how they interact with my people. I will step in when they can’t solve things themselves. [His hands fall as he reaches up to the collar around his neck. He removes it. There is a white slash across his fur right over his neck. It had to have been fatal when it was made. He lets the collar fall from his fingers.]
