[Mary frowns, but says nothing for a moment. She understands that the world isn't perfect and that things happen in nature to correct the course of things. Death is natural, and nature can be cruel. But in the right circumstances life persists and thrives in its wake.

She understands this.

But the woman's words still remind her of what a Templar would say.]

Perhaps, but the artist should take care not to forget where their paint came from and what it's made of. An image painted in blood will never stop being blood, no matter what it's shaped into.

[She shifts her head, looking sideways at Parasraya.]

Necessity doesn't absolve one of the consequences of their actions, even if they believe them for the greater good. Setting aside judgement for now, it's still something that should be remembered. Do whatever you will, but be wise in the course you choose.

[ An image painted in blood will never stop being blood, no matter what it's shaped into... ]

Much like how assassinating people to ensure peace, will never be right... No matter what the end purpose is.

[ She nodded, slowly turned away. ]

The question is, do we choose to see blood as the sign death, or as harbinger of life? A different point of view can make good evil, and vice-versa. Therefore is the futility of notions such as good and evil, life or death. Those who make choices must look beyond the blood to admire the final product.

[Parasraya earns herself a look before she turns. Mary was a soldier, a pirate and an Assassin in her life. One of those who consider the title of Hero one they may not quite deserve. She knows the blood on her hands. She knows she isn't any sort of saint or angel. She just hopes that what she's done truly is for the greater good as she believes.]

Perhaps...but I've said this before. A sacrifice is more admirable if those who give their lives make the choice to do so. If they aren't willing then it's murder, no matter the good that comes of it.

[She knows full well what she's said, and the self incrimination she's making. She's long since made peace with that. The words hold in the air for a moment before her expression softens and she turns to a passing servant, politely asking for her drink to be refilled. Her next words to Parasraya are far more genial.]

And you? Do you need to be topped off?

[hiddentruth]

[ Parasraya didn't reply for a moment, seemingly lost in thought and bemused. When she finally spoke, the gave her own glass to a passing servant. ]

I shall let you be the judge of that... And I expect you to be a harsh judge.

[ With that said, she gave Mary a last smile and walked away. She didn't seem intent on speaking any longer. ]
