Elliot fell silent.
"In order to protect the majority … we had to sacrifice the minority".
These words echoed in his head.
Was there really no other option?
"My King … in this life, you will be faced by the hardest choices. Choices … that may require sacrifices. I can see that your heart is very much willing to sacrifice your own self but sometimes, it is not ourself that needs to be sacrificed … instead, it will be something … or even someone we hold very dearly. And when that time comes, I hope you make the right decision"
He was reminded again of the words Ignis left him.
Was this the kind of sacrifice he meant?
And as kings … they had no option but to choose?
What was right? What was wrong?
