She's set in her ways--I wish it wasn't like that but all that Battler could do is offer her a lie: a pleasant lie but a lie nonetheless. Ange doesn't deserve that. How could that offer any true happiness?

Of course I do. To die surrounded by what you've always wanted but with no way to enjoy it, hated by the world, not having a single person taking your side..how couldn't I understand about what was lost that day?

[There's some anger in that statement but, for once, it's not directed at Yurippe.]

Of course I do. Even a witch like me...I can have things that I regret.
