It helps if we all tell her the same thing. Perhaps it will stick. Though I would not hold my breathe.

[He tilts his head.]

Do you need to be somewhere else?

N-No, it's... Back then, in Vergil's soul--she accidentally sent enemies to where I was. She had no idea I was there, she did not know I would be in danger. But she blamed herself greatly for it... She came to save me, and though she did not tell me I believe she died for it. I'm... I'm certain she still blames herself, though she couldn't have possibly known.

Lily. If only she did not have such crippling self doubt, how much she could accomplish. I find her nearly inconsolable at times, but surely progress will be made.

...Something happened to her, didn't it? Back in the world...

She was not thought highly of, no. More tool than human. The scars it has left are deep indeed.

But she isn't alone there. She has someone she cares for. However, she seeks approval from those who will never give it to her, and it does weigh so heavily on her heart.

[His hold tightens, brow furrowing.]

...Whoever it is, they're fools. Lily is wonderful. She's kind and strong and loving.

[Hythlodaeus breathes out quietly.]

I hope... I hope that I can help her understand it, one day. I love her so much, Hades...

She is all of those things and much more.

But it is hard to judge, is is not? I know little of the star she hails and its plights. And not all is so plain to the eye.

I know not whether you mean to say that she might have done something terrible, or that those who do not love her must be forgiven.

More that the entire picture is not understood, thus a judgement would be rash. Lily is deserving of kindness, of love, of care and hope. But until we understand why, we can misstep.

She loves the water, you know. Perhaps you should take her somewhere she can enjoy it.
