[stahn pauses for a moment, taking in what she's saying—and he doesn't disagree.]
I think you're right. I feel like... it may be why Mosley betrayed them. I don't know if it means he's on our side; even though he wasn't the nicest person when he talked to us, I didn't feel like he was really a bad person.
[the truth is that stahn knows what it's like to be betrayed. he knows what it's like for someone he cares about to turn the other way for their own beliefs, to cross swords with someone precious and have to fight against someone that was supposed to be at his side.
but even when that happened, he didn't think poorly of things. because a good person doesn't suddenly become a bad person. there were reasons for that betrayal that stretched deeper than his understanding at the time. it's for that reason though that he isn't sure mosley is a bad person. it for this reason that dymlos makes a sound that sounds like a sigh—because he knows what stahn is thinking of right now.]
Him being against CERES could hurt us, and we may have to go against him too... but I don't want to assume that until we know for sure.
[but one thing is for sure, he thinks.]
CERES... is definitely a problem for us, though. Not just because nothing is stable, but because—I really don't think anything they want for us is good.
