[This cannot stand. It's hug time, small bat, even if it's awkward and soft.]
As I'm sure many do. ...You know, there was somebody once who was stolen from her life much the same.
[It's an old story, and one she's heard and memorized over the years.]
Used as a pawn to move others along the path that would make a bitter and power-hungry man into a monster. And while her beloved gave up everything to fight, she still could not be saved. Yet thanks to an alchemist, her soul was bound to something that could, and was able to continue the fight for hundreds of years against the man who had sealed her fate and many others over time.
Perhaps you're much the same. Yet you aren't sitting in my big brother's weapon locker. You are yourself, time-displaced bat or not, and you fight for the world as you always have. I do wish you'd had a happier ending. Yet you still may, the way things are now, as may this world.
