<Snipped quote by Source>

Everyone in the family contributes to the hero side of the company. Fun fact.

<Snipped quote by souleaterfan320>

My life's work was destroyed! And now you're trying to figure out how to bribe me like some kind of politician. I don't want it to be worth my while Shinji, I want to know what I could possibly do to help any of you. I'm not going to go die so you can say you gave it your all.

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

you're going to die anyways, you idiot! I too have lost. I too have suffered. I don't get to make excuses. I don't get to give up. People depend on us. When my children died, I had nothing else to lose. The thing i had fought so damn hard for was ripped from me from the very woman who I had loved. I have felt betrayal on all fronts. But I can't throw the towel in. I don't get the option. Are you going to let your failures stop you? Or are you going to rise up from the ahses a better man than you were before?

<Snipped quote by souleaterfan320>

What kind of argument is that? Stop using hero rhetoric on me. Either you have a way and a reason for me to contribute something, or you're using me as cannon fodder.
*Pauses*
So what is it, Shinji? What exactly are you asking me to do?

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

I'm asking you to help me make a weapon that can help defeat the Amaranthine, or buy us enough time to figure out how to seal them permanently. That's all I'm giving you. Like I said before, You dont have to fight. I gave up on that. I just want you to contribute something. anything.

<Snipped quote by souleaterfan320>

What do you want me to add to your weapons? Because here's the thing, this System is an unwinnable war. It's mathematically just not going to happen. I'm not going out and killing countless beings to delude myself into thinking that I can somehow take over the System and restore what was there before.

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

...I want to try to deconstruct amaranthine, and reconstruct it into a way that we can infuse it into my sword.

As for that second thing... I'll do it for you. That or... we can find a way to break the system. Again. There's always a way to suceed if you look hard enough.

<Snipped quote by souleaterfan320>

Breaking the System isn't an option. That's almost a worst-case scenario.

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

Breaking the system surely isnt worse that the possible extinction of all existence, unless the two are synonymous.

<Snipped quote by souleaterfan320>

It's pretty close. It would mean drowning in a sea of chaos.

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

... I'll do whatever it takes to save existence. If I have to forfeit myl ife to do so, then so be it. I don't care the cost.

<Snipped quote by souleaterfan320>

Think practically, Shinji. Romanticizing it won't get us anywhere other than death.

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

Alright. What exactly woudl happen if I broke the system again. Would e istence be engulfed in Outside?

<Snipped quote by souleaterfan320>

A hopeless soup of Existence. No dimensions, no real limitations. System control floats between entities like bubbles and laws of reality break down.

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

Is there a way to write in a new kind of System? Surely there must be.

<Snipped quote by souleaterfan320>

There is. With the current System, you have to acquire a controlling share of all territories.

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

One thats actually achievable without being a pipedream.

<Snipped quote by souleaterfan320>

You'd have to build a System on top of the current one, which can't realistically be done without stakeholders in the current system. More or less, to force a stacked System change on the Balkan System, you have to win the Balkan System anyway.

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

What runs the Systems? Surely there's a source for them.
