"Yeah..." Luka trails off, getting lost in thought. The idea of the Protector on the new planet helping everyone rebuild seemed like a far off dream. No one who was cooperating with them wanted him alive. "Did you know he keeps a journal? And he likes stargazing."
Luka proudly shares the scant few details he'd managed to get about the Protector's hobbies and personal life. It wasn't much, but he valued the small shreds of evidence that the Protector was more than just a strict, stoic Wizard-killing machine.
But Luka thinks back again to the Knight's slain bodies and the blatant wounds from the Protector's weapon over their hearts, and his attempt to humanize the man suddenly felt in poor taste.
"I need answers from him more than anything." Luka speaks up again, breaking out of his contemplation. "I want to hear how he justifies what he's done. If he wants trust, if he truly believes what he's doing is the right thing, then he has to be honest with us. That's the first step."
