[ What are you here for? ]                                             For things I should have finished long ago. [ You can run while you still can. ]                                                                                I can't, I am exhausted. [ There is still time. ]                        Then I would have to abandon everything I hold dear. [ But you would be alive. ]                          What good am I alive if I cannot be with those I love? [ So you accept your fate? ]           It was meant to be the moment I stepped back into this world. [ Your fate is in your hands. ]               And those who have done wrong will always pay the price. [ And what would your last request be? ]                                                                              That a miracle happens. [ A miracle? ]                      I am ready to pay the price for my crimes but for today. [ . . . ]                                                      Just for today I wish I could be saved. [ That is up to you. ]                                                 I can only hope that I am strong enough. [ Only time will tell. ]                                                                 Do you think I can make it out? [ . . . ]                                                         Can I make the heavens reconsider? [ . . . ]                                                                                                        I figured. [ Remember. ]                                                                                                                 Yes? [ Your fate is now in your hands. ]                                                       -Kore
