Sparks Nevada, who always champions the idea of saving everyone no matter what, has had a hard time in Crystallis in his time here. It was evident long ago that that was most likely not a possibility in the face of the Calamity. But that didn't mean he couldn't try. If he had to give his life up trying, he'd rather go knowing that he stuck to his own convictions.

He put a calming hand on Tsubomi's shoulder, but his other hand rested on his sword.

"I'm with her. Reckon there'd be no point to us still bein' here if we weren't gonna try. We might as well just let the Calamity grab us all up. But we didn't. We're here, and we're ready to do whatever we can. Doesn't mean it needs to come down to a fight, but..."

He figured he didn't need to finish that statement.
