[ This room is small. There is one window with a narrow, railless balcony. The walls are stone and it's quite clear that you're in one of the towers of the castle looking out over Aather. From this vantage point you can see all the normal landscape but you can also see the statue people as well as a looming cloud hanging over the fringes of the forest.

There is a small table with no chairs inside of the room. One button is dark gray and the other button is light gray.

It should be noted, for the observant, that every few minutes the cloud outside grows and gets closer. A darkness is slowly falling. ]

And doing nothing... Well, you saw what Beauty looked like out there. And I've heard others have been attacked as well. Doing nothing might be sacrificing them. And I know a lot of people don't trust them. I don't always trust them, but...

I have friends among them. Trust doesn't have to come into it when it's about protecting the people you care for.

[nods] They're people, just like we are, and we have no right...

I- I hate that it's come to this at all, but there's only one way I could vote on this matter.

We do have the right. Saying we don't have the right takes away our autonomy, and that's no good. That's exactly it: having the right to say no and choosing to say yes is something else altogether.

You make a good point.
