Agreed.... but we fight for the purpose of protecting others. Data died a hero, giving me the time we needed to finish the project thatll lead ot the end of the Amaranthine.
Mierno: .....did Srieg die... at the hands of Acnologia?
Shinji: ackno-who?
Mierno: .... at the same time of fighting the Amaranthien not once but twice... I was aiding Sreig and Midnight fight their threat, Acnologia. That reminds me.l-
*looks for a mark, but sees nothing*

Shinji: whats gone?
Mierno: when I fought Acnologia... I was marked. It did something... I forgot what.
Shinji: sounds ominous.
Mierno: I'm less focused on that and moreso on the fact that I could've prevented two deaths, and failed on both.
