The world is broken. It is ravaged by war, sickness, wickedness, ignorance, and frailty. If we have the chance to ensure that we create a better world, then that is what we should do. A world filled with peace and love, where sickness and frailty do not cut lives short, and where we may focus on what we have in common as opposed to our differences.
[ Emet-Selch pauses. Seeing Gen injured and exhausted only furthered the need in his own mind - if there is even a need for further motivation after witnessing thousands upon thousands of years with much of the same. A sigh escapes him. ]
I take no pleasure in hostages. I take no pleasure in the fate they suffer at the hands of those who would willingly torture them at the behest of no one, with no justification. Whether it is 'right' is irrelevant; it is in pursuit of a greater good. So I will endure this unpleasantness in hopes that we all might be whole again.
