The only way that they'd want nothing to do with it... is if they view those people as being inferior to them and their suffering and deaths mean nothing to their existence.
[ Nero talks in absolutes because that is how his world has been. He hasn't witnessed anything in this new world that has challenged his beliefs. In fact, hearing stories from other worlds, it has only strengthened his resolve that every world is shit.
People just lie to themselves about how shitty it really is. ]
If they really are like that, well... then, the Free Cities and Thorne won't have to worry about Solvunn. But ... is that really okay? Solvunn is only good because it considers the others to be worthless?
[ If this country really is like that, Nero won't be able to stay in it. It would remind him too much of how the elves are; he's already given too much deja vu just being in this place. It makes his skin itch. It makes him want to burn everything down and have everyone see that the Gods never loved or protected them.
His eyes close, and he lets out a long, agonized sigh. But I won't. I won't do something like that here.
Nero lifts his chin a little as soon as the man starts speaking, again. He opens one eye as he listens to what he has to say. It seems like the way they view the world is a little different from one another; the two are walking the same path but the elf slipped deeper into the darkness and blood. ]
Actions are the only thing that matters, huh? If I save a person, it means that I did something good even if I'm not a good person? [ He repeats back what he understands. ]
