The parallels are readily apparent, and her gaze drops to the tea in her cup partway through. Making up for who he thought he had become. It strikes a chord with her, and she knows full well it's the same battle she's been fighting, the one she's chosen for herself despite the fact that her past actions were not her own.
Some things can never be made up for, but she still wishes to be the best possible version of herself, someone apart from the Imperial Witch that had struck fear into the hearts of so many.
As Y'shtola's hand comes to rest on her wrist, she turns her gaze upwards once more, offering her friend a faint but tired smile. She knows that she can move forward, that she can bear the deeds of the past as she makes every effort to carry on the best way she knows how, and yet there's more to it than that.]
I know you're right.
[Y'shtola's story itself serves as a much-needed reminder of the fact that what's done can never be undone or made up for, something she has made every effort to come to terms with on her own— but a little help never hurts.]
Your friend— did he ever learn that he could never make up for what happened?
