S'long as you're serious about starting over from the bottom and working your way back up to become someone you're proud to be—someone who'd be proud to meet your Pactbearer in the next life—then you'll always have one person willing to back you up.

Wanna know a secret? No matter how this went down, I wouldn't have thought of it as a waste. I shot my shot, you know? I can't control how other people are gonna react or what they'll do. If they agree with me, awesome! If they don't... well, all I can do is my best.
