"While your words are wise, I have to respectfully disagree. I am inclined to believe that our actions and where we get to are of our own, not of this 'fate'. The idea of being chained by a set future from the day you are born to the day you die doesn't sit well with me. Besides, it wouldn't be right to not repay you in some way. My promise still stands and I am honorbound to see it through. I hope you can understand. I'd be long gone by now if it weren't for our what you call 'fated' meeting."
