I have noticed many amongst us appear concerned about Ruana's next step, namely her siphoning of the souls left on dead worlds.

I can and do understand the will to oppose Ruana, I encourage it. However, this desire I have witnessed of saving the lost souls is quite intriguing, if not misplaced. The vast majority of these souls are people we have never met and will most likely never meet. For that matter we did not even know they existed before stepping into this tower, nor did we have any thoughts for them before seeing that message.

They have had whatsoever no impact on our lives and never will they have any. Nothing binds them to us and what fate will befall them, ultimately is none of our concern. It is their own fight while we have our own fights. Hence I have only one question:

Why do you care?

That's not how it works at all. If life was that way, then we wouldn't have police officers back home or anything either.. Sure, some people are weaker than others, but that's since both strong and weak people are needed in life, everyone should have their place! So the stronger people need to protect the weaker ones!

You say everyone is needed in life. This is not true. The strong ones only waste their potential to protect the weak ones. if here we both protecting everyone, in the end we will fail to protect them and ourselves.

And weak encompasses a great many things. I am not speaking of strength only. Willpower, intelligence-- Someone of great intelligence may be a strong one.

[ .. Everyone is needed in life. Sure, Asahi can't entirely believe that either, she knows the world would be much better off without certain people who only hurt others. But to say people aren't needed just since they don't have what other people do..

She thinks of Toru and what she did to him. Her stomach turns. ]

Then how are you going to decide who is weak and who isn't?! It's not like you can just tell what kind of qualities someone has until you get to know them, and in the end most people have something valuable to them, if not just everyone!
