[ does she want an insane lore drop, because this is how she gets insane lore drops. why not. he's feeling a bit crazy tonight. ]
Well, entirely anecdotally, you end up with the last remaining extremely annoying part of your conscience signing up for a murderous game show to try and save you from yourself.
[ ... ]
I don't think you can ever kill the part of you that cares. It just turns into something that wants to make the world hurt like you hurt.
[ Let's get wild!! Mizi learned about magic like three days ago, so she's not sure if she's fully tracking all of it. But she thinks she understands the important parts.
She looks out at the waves for a little bit. Sometimes, her eyes seem to focus, like she's looking at something in particular. But there's nothing out there. ]
Oh. Then maybe I did give my soul up. [ Not the saving you from yourself part; that's not Mizi's wish at all. But: ] I think if I ever went back to my old competition, I'd hurt every last segyein in the audience.

I don't think there's ever really a point of no return. It gets harder, the further down the road you go, to turn around. But it's never impossible. [ maybe that's idealistic and naive, but he does seem stubborn in his belief. ] They probably deserve it. But you're here and not there, right now.

But that's none of her business. ]

I know it's against the ethos of this whole team against team nonsense, but I want you to have yours too.
