There's nothing you could have done....It's not your fault and you know that....He made you...You had no choice...

I could have reacted fast, dome something, anything, other than allow what happened to transpire.

*She goes over and gently takes his hands. Looking into his eyes.* Gale...They would have killed us if we ran away....Or beat us if we refused....No matter what, we had to do what they wanted or we would have died....You don't have to feel bad...It's not your fault....You had to....

But I failed you, I couldn't protect you. I was helpless to help you...

Chelsea BOT 12/15/2023 03:20
Because I know you'd never do that unless you had no choice...And you didn't have a choice....*she sighs before whispering*....And I love you...

I....... I love you too.... but I ...... I just feel so guilty. You should hate me...... I hate me...

Chelsea BOT 12/15/2023 03:30
*cups his face in her hands gently* I can't hate you. And you shouldn't beat yourself up over this. The only ones to blame is Astarion and Rilith. No one else.
