"I stood there and I didn't do anything. My weapon was drawn at the time....I just watched. He took Melfina away from me, as well as my daughter Kirika, all that was left was a blood stained violin, and a blood soaked ocarina." he said as he clenched his fists on cried. "We just wanted to live peacefully..."

Amaranta's free hand clenched into a tight fist as memories stabbed at her heart. "I know how you feel, but i'm done with those days. I hope that you can move on as well." she said.

"I can't.....their songs haunt me everyday, they played such beautiful music together. I even play those songs on the very instruments they played. But there is just one thing I can't replace in their music, those angelic voices. It could lull the angriest and fiercest beasts into a deep sleep." Dante explained. "My home has been quiet ever since the incident. But sometimes I can still hear them play, it brings tears to my eyes." Dante started to cry harder.

"Does it really matter? I still didn't do a thing. not a thing for the man who raised me, and loved me as long as he was alive." she glared at the table.

"You think you didn't do anything for your father? You're wrong, you did something no one else could do. You were his daughter." he said.

Amaranta swallowed the lump in her throat. "Apply that to yourself." she said. *I still didn't do anything when it actually mattered.*

"I can't forgive myself." Dante said as he looked out the window. He sighed and drank the rest of his ale. "I have a job at sundown..." he said as he dried his tears and walked out the door without looking back or saying another word.
