[ that's both good and bad. good that no one else had to die - but now they have one or two other killers to find. who else will pay the price, if they fail again? ]
Are you going to tell them tomorrow?
[ her worrying won't end until the vote is over. an innocent already died because of a misplaced vote. what would she do if they had no other option but agni? ]
Whoever killed the others—whether we have one more culprit or multiple—will likely focus on every kill but their own.
Obviously, once people know Meltryllis was my doing, there won't be any further need to investigate her death. So until then, keep an eye out for anyone who makes her their main priority.
... Well, beside those like Toi who were close with her.
[ she knew, and didn't try to stop him - encouraged it, in fact. the guilt will be with here no matter what. but she thinks agni already knows that, so she won't argue any further. ]
You'll tell me if there's something I can do to help, right?

It's not your fault, either. You did what you meant to do.

I'm going to wait for a bit. I'll probably be found out, since I didn't try to cover up my tracks, and I won't lie if it comes to it.
[also. yeah. he'll accept the consequences of his actions, but he doesn't want people getting complacent because they have a failsafe vote in him.]
But there's something I want to see first.

But okay. I'll keep that in mind. And... I won't tell anyone it was you.
[ as far as brilith is concerned, it was half her fault, anyway. she's the one who asked agni to go. ]

[...]
Brilith, regardless of anything else, I would've done this, as part of my duty. No matter what happens, none of this is on you. Remember that, okay?
