The Final Answer

I was prepared to sacrifice myself that day. If I could give my life to rid the world of the Black Mage, I would gladly do so.

Do I regret the decision I made? I did my duty. But I never thought about it beyond that.

If I knew the consequences... if I knew that I wouldn't belong anywhere and remain forgotten to everyone... If I could choose again... Could I make that same choice?

...Yes. Absolutely. It was the Black Mage who chose poorly, because I still exist to fight him!

In the end, my fate is the same. I will be the force to rid the world of the Black Mage. No matter how long it takes, and no matter the cost!

I must get stronger for that day. THAT is my purpose. THAT is what I live for. What I CHOOSE to live for!
