So...

the commander was gentle from the start.

Yes...

But, that kindness was her enemy.

The Commander is a marvelous person. But, she was thickheaded.

And she should have known that malice isn't the only reason why people fight.

Well, that much is obvious.

If everything can go well with just kindness

then we wouldn't have existed from the start.

...Is what some people say, at least.

But, it's alright.
