I’m not sure if I forgot them or lost them, though. Those feelings only become more dull over time.Audio: "ch7_Blue_ep2_MP_Phillip_5"Philip(The Crying Children)I imagine myself in the past would’ve gotten upset and sad over those, unable to let go of them all.Audio: "ch7_Blue_ep2_MP_Phillip_6"Philip(The Crying Children)Right now, I’m simply standing here for the performance that will awaken the people of this City like everyone else.Audio: "ch7_Blue_ep2_MP_Phillip_7"Philip(The Crying Children)I have no hard feelings, other than the desire for the Light you’ve kept hidden.Audio: "ch7_Blue_ep2_MP_Phillip_8"Malkuth(Patron Librarian - History)Don’t you feel that you’ve lost something important to you?Audio: "ch7_Blue_ep2_MP_Malkuth_5"Philip(The Crying Children)Having my happiness taken away doesn’t always mean that sadness has to fill that space.Audio: "ch7_Blue_ep2_MP_Phillip_9"Philip(The Crying Children)I haven’t become intrinsically unhappier.Audio: "ch7_Blue_ep2_MP_Phillip_10"Philip(The Crying Children)I’ve simply returned to a past state, back when I hadn’t realized such emotions… back before I met them.Audio: "ch7_Blue_ep2_MP_Phillip_11"Philip(The Crying Children)I’m sure I wasn’t a miserable man at that time.Audio: "ch7_Blue_ep2_MP_Phillip_12"Malkuth(Patron Librarian - History)If you have to part with such emotions and memories… what’ll be left for you?Audio: "ch7_Blue_ep2_MP_Malkuth_6"Philip(The Crying Children)Nothing. I don’t feel sad about it, though.Audio: "ch7_Blue_ep2_MP_Phillip_13"Philip(The Crying Children)Why are people taught that they must earn things? Jobs, assets, friends, family, knowledge, wealth…Audio: "ch7_Blue_ep2_MP_Phillip_14"Philip(The Crying Children)They tell us that our lives are made successful and content by acquiring them, whatever they may be.Audio: "ch7_Blue_ep2_MP_Phillip_15"Philip(The Crying Children)Even though nothing in this world lasts forever. What we get is destined to depart from us one day.Audio: "ch7_Blue_ep2_MP_Phillip_16"Philip(The Crying Children)Eventually, when people try and fail to latch on to them in an unsightly struggle, they despair and lament. I did, too.Audio: "ch7_Blue_ep2_MP_Phillip_17"Philip(The Crying Children)Do relationships between people really matter? They’ll all break in the end, sooner or later.Audio: "ch7_Blue_ep2_MP_Phillip_18"Philip(The Crying Children)Can’t a person be himself and walk down a path he chose purely on his own, without anyone else’s intervention?Audio: "ch7_Blue_ep2_MP_Phillip_19"Philip(The Crying Children)He may seem like a nobody, but he’ll ultimately gain more.Audio: "ch7_Blue_ep2_MP_Phillip_20"Malkuth(Patron Librarian - History)It’s understandable to be afraid of what might happen between people. After all, I had the same fear.Audio: "ch7_Blue_ep2_MP_Malkuth_7"Malkuth(Patron Librarian - History)But… without such emotions, we can’t move forward.Audio: "ch7_Blue_ep2_MP_Malkuth_8"Malkuth(Patron Librarian - History)There might be difficult and trying times, but there’s still a lesson to be learned from that pain.Audio: "ch7_Blue_ep2_MP_Malkuth_9"Philip(The Crying Children)I don’t know. Even if that were true, you’re not one to lecture me about it.Audio: "ch7_Blue_ep2_MP_Phillip_21"Philip(The Crying Children)Such a bold thing to say, after taking the lives of the people around me…Audio: "ch7_Blue_ep2_MP_Phillip_22"Malkuth(Patron Librarian - History)…Audio: "ch7_Blue_ep2_MP_Malkuth_10"Philip(The Crying Children)I haven’t come here to take revenge, though. Most would say the same.Audio: "ch7_Blue_ep2_MP_Phillip_23"Philip(The Crying Children)All I want is a free life, one where I’m not chained to anything.Audio: "ch7_Blue_ep2_MP_Phillip_24"Philip(The Crying Children)I’m tired of having to worry about taking flak for anything I do.Audio: "ch7_Blue_ep2_MP_Phillip_25"Malkuth(Patron Librarian - History)I guess I don’t have any more arguments to make. I don’t have a clear conscience about what I’ve been doing, after all.Audio: "ch7_Blue_ep2_MP_Malkuth_11"Malkuth(Patron Librarian - History)There’s only one way to settle this now.
