Some might say it's worth it.

(He isn't so sure. There are things he's willing to do to achieve his dream. He would stop at nothing to make those dreams come true. But through war, though? He hadn't expected his dream to come true easily and he'd always been prepared to fight for it-- even get his hands dirty-- but war felt like too much.

Red was never his color. Edelgard on the other hand...

He's quiet. What he doesn't tell Flayn now is that his plans involve working with Edelgard. Flayn is smart though, surely she'll figure it out if she hasn't already.

Give up in Fodlan, return to Almyra, reclaim his right, and when Fodlan was ready or when Edelgard needed him... he would reach out. That time would surely come. It was why Edelgard and Byleth had let him go. He could help them in the future. )

I'm not giving up on it just because I've lost Fodlan. My dream is bigger than that and as long as I'm alive, I'll keep working toward it.

(Because he's alive. He can live another day and every day is one more day to make his dreams come true.)

I'll be back someday. I'm not finished with it yet. And if you want... you're welcome to come, too.
