My memory has failed me. My past haunts me. My decisions bite back at me with ferociousness not even a tiger would be able to achieve.

''T-That's not what I meant! If we go back to the Ark now, the Commander will be in big trouble!'' Marian warned stiffly. ''W-We can't... We need to go back!''
''... Trombe, halt.'' Crown pulled on the leads of the metal quadruped. It in return stopped at once.
''Marian. Wasn't this your wish?'' Crown asked, turning to face her. Her blue eyes shining within the light of the moon, in the twinkling of the stars. ''To see the Commander? To go back?''
