If I'm not executed for murdering Quer, I'm going to do whatever it takes to make it to the end of this game. Isn't that at odds with your goal?

Don't you see? The last three survivors don't necessarily need to be us.

As long as at least one of the three is willing to take the deal to raise the dead. . . our goal will be realized. Even if we're executed or lynched before seeing it come to fruition.

[She studies him for a moment before speaking.]

Then maybe you're right. We just might be on the same side after all.

[Her mouth curls into a small smile.]

You know why I was so upset with you earlier? I didn't think you were responsible enough for this path that you've chosen. It seems I was wrong.

[his eyebrows shoot up, another flicker of surprise]

Y'know, that seems to be a theme? Andersen kinda hinted at the same thing.

What about me makes me seem so irresponsible and cowardly?

Well, you are a teenager.
