I think we can work out any further issues between ourselves if they come up, including that of recompense. If you think there's further intervention needed, that's fine. That's a call either of us can make.

[We are people, not weapons, and I for one am not drinking the Kool-Aid telling me that my purpose is to serve.

Humanity? Yes. Iskandar? Yes. Gods? Hell no.

In the important things, I am my own master.


The old Zen koan goes 'If you meet the Buddha on the road, kill him.' Why? To embrace your own true Buddha nature. Waver kills the assumption that Gods and anyone else get to tell him what he is and what his nature is, despite the vessel he's been shoved in (thanks, Saber).

He is his own God, even as he serves Iskandar. He may not be allowed his memories, but he can listen to his own self. And ultimate responsibility for his actions falls to him and him alone.]


So next time. You're an excellent opponent.
