["When they disappear, I never see them again"--he thinks there's a thread of truth to that, and he doesn't quite know how, but now isn't the time to pry. When she is calm again, he can ask--but for now, he focuses on her and her expression.]
Look at me, Kozakura. I understand that it hurts. [It hurts him too. That's what losing people is--it's painful.] There is no shame in mourning that loss.
But there is also no room for despair. We still have the capability to do things here, and to find a way to bring back those who were lost. So mourn, cry if you must, but do not forget that it is up to us to carry on that hope.
[Because they're the only ones who are capable of it.]
