conversations.value:  "I have, many times. But he won’t listen. My brother is naive, and the people around him won’t give him accurate information. Nevertheless…I don’t quite understand. He’s normally so clever. Why would he dismiss the threat of the empire?" Yu frowned. "In any case, I will keep pleading Claire’s case to him, but to be honest, I wouldn’t count on Thane. Dole and Claire have come to symbolize the aristocracy and aristocratic politics. From the revolutionary government’s perspective, they’re the ideal scapegoats. And even if they weren’t, the Nur Empire surely has them at the top of their list of aristocratic threats to eliminate."

conversations.value:  The conversation had lowered my spirits. But my friends had promised to help me. That had to be enough for now. I thanked them and left the convent. I visited a number of other places after that, trying and trying to devise a way to save Claire, but I struck out on every count. Salas and the Nur Empire’s forces were rooted deep in this country, and people turned me away wherever I went. I was powerless and alone. I didn’t want to give up, but I was stuck. I ran all over the capital, stopping only when I made myself sick with exhaustion. "This must be how Claire felt when she was facilitating negotiations between the aristocrats and the people…" I’d done nothing but watch as she worked herself to the bone, certain it would all be resolved in the end. I’d been so sure that Dole and I were going to keep her safe. "Miss Claire…" It had only been a few days since I last saw her, but it felt like months. The person who had always been by my side was gone. I thought my chest would burst. "I want to see you, Miss Claire." As I sank into terrified doubt, an epiphany struck me—I knew where Claire was being held. This was my last chance.
