The null cone

My good friends...

[Alessandra sits in front of the wall. Not just a wall - the wall of rememberance. So many names are written there, of White Chalice crew who departed this world.]

Were it not for your valiant efforts, would this very Champion still be able to recite these words, sit where she does? Somehow I find that most doubtful... yet, I cannot help but be overwhelmed by emotions of longing and melancholy.

I suppose...

I suppose I just miss you.

[Alessandra continues to drink her tea in relative peace, but her armored hand shakes while these words are uttered.]

[Yes, this is an invitation to remember and talk about dead characters.]

[Kamille is silent for a time, staring at the wall, at the name he personally etched in.] ... For all that he was my brother... [He remembers the battle at Axis vividly, how of Kamille and Amuro, it was the White Devil who was able to destroy Char's MS, and how near-ineffectual he had been.] I like to believe that he wishes for us to win. [All the gaffs that man had made, culminating to this...] He tried, in his own way, to support us. He was... bad at it, to be sure, but he wanted us to succeed.

He'd happily take their hate, if it meant that our dreams still amounted to the same thing. [He sighs.] At least, I like to believe that. For all that he was my brother, the man that was Casval Rem Deikun remains an enigma to me.

You are not the only one for whom he was a mystery. I wonder what light shall future history paint him in.
