I tried to be original. I tried to come up with a non-obvious response. But if I only have the choice to change one person's mind, then there is only one person I would choose.
Keelia. Etain.
I would have her remember how happy we were and believe that we can be again. The tragedy that came after has coloured it all for her. Frightened her. I frightened her. And she's so cynical now. Harder than I remember her being. She doesn't believe in happy ever after, even as she yearns for it. But that cynicism...that hardness...
I would have her believe. Not in who I am, for she knows that now. Not in who she is, for she knows that as well. But I would have her believe in happy ever after. Believe in us. In the dream. In the hope.
I would give that lost faith back to her.
