"Sah, neutrality is not going to be real in this world. I honestly think that sitting in that notion is as ignorant as it comes. Neutrality will get Halo destroyed, because then it will become a fortress for people who are enemies of either side that we cannot protect." His voice was even as he spoke to the younger hunter, the tone indicating no emotion from him.
"The way you speak makes it seem like we were the ones who brought violence to Halo. Sah, all we did was have a conversation with Morgan. She chose to abdicate the throne to us, and then brought in the Ascended to attack her own people. We drew them out of the Citadel to keep everyone safe. You seem to be forgetting that she is the one who is power hungry, selfish, and a liar. All we did was speak to her about our concerns and intentions, and she stepped down willingly before coming back to kill her own people." Noah let those words sink in for Sah, because it did seem that he was forgetting. He was projecting Morgan's intentions and malice on the Sentinel and the Sword, on Cordelia. "The people had decided, Sah. When we spoke to the masses about what had happened, no one told us to step aside." Was he forgetting everything that had happened?
They were never the ones who were violent. They were never the ones who endangered Halo.
It was Morgan. "Halo only lets her stay now because they are afraid of her. If you think anything else, you're fooling yourself."
"And I will be quite honest with you where I stand in all of this wartime talk. Vi has made me his demigod."
