Trusting things you're not used to is never easy, A-Yao. You don't need to force yourself to do anything unless it's what you really want to do, at least here, and taking it a day at a time might make it easier for you. I don't know what happened after we lost Da-ge but he's the man he was before the war here. [Before he'd changed, even if Xichen had done everything he could to help him return to who he'd been before everything had happened.]

I'll do whatever I can to help you, though. Both of you because I want this chance for the two of you more than anything else. [At least as long as they're here.]
