I didn't know, not at that time. I didn't know that I wasn't being executed. I thought I was going to die as much as you did. Mochizuki had met with me before, but she made sure to tell me exactly how hopeless my situation was. It wasn't until after they took me in. I...they even took me to the room, strapped me down, and gave me an injection. But, it didn't kill me. When I woke up...I was in the Convent.
[There was still more she needed to tell him. It burned at her tongue, like acid down her trait when she tried to swallow.]
I'm sorry that I didn't tell you anything. I didn't tell you why I did it. Even if you couldn't do anything...you deserved to know the truth.
[It was painful, she didn't want to think about it. She didn't want to think about everything that had driven her to that point.]
They...they tried to plead my case as self-defense, but that wouldn't have worked because that wasn't the case.
[she balled her fists in front of her, her whole body starting to tremble a little.]

I...I attacked him first.
