*Anyone who sees Lyle get out of his cockpit would notice he has a different Haro with him this time. A strange, periwinkle one that just happens to have a holographic projector, revealing the form of a certain woman that everyone's thought dead for months now.*
Everyone I...
I know I don't have any excuse for what I did. The only explanation I can give is that I was the kind sleeper agent that doesn't even realize they were. And when I finally did know, I made the wrong decision and put the Innovators before the GDF. I'd understand if any of you have a grudge from that incident; I did terrible things to you all and that's the cross I'm going to have to bear for the rest of my days.
When Setsuna destroyed my body, I did the only thing I could think of an uploaded my thought patterns to Veda. I wasn't even sure if it would work or what I'd do if it did... and I had to keep a low profile to avoid getting detected. And when the Lyle's fight with Ali spilled over to the hangar, I hedged my bets and uploaded my thoughts into a Haro instead.
Zoe... I am so sorry for what I did to you. You were my friend... and I was threatening to kill you. And Kira, the suffering you must have gone through from that fake-GN bullet I shot you with is something I know not even a thousand apologies can heal. Setsuna, Lyle, Tieria... everyone in Celestial Being, I made the wrong choice for what should have been the easiest decision in my entire life.
But... it's over. Ribbons is gone and we've taken back control of Veda. And if I need to face a tribunal for what I did then so be it. And that said...
It is good to see other people for the first time in almost five months.
