He knows, he knows that. If he went ahead and save her, things would be a little different for the Hosokawa and those under their care. It wouldn't be just himself, but also Kasen and how history may progress that might be subjected to this rebellious act to change history.

But don't you wish to see her again?

Between the familiar, burning desire for revenge, the voice of temptation spoke to him again.

It's only one life. Another can die in her place.

Sayo didn't respond back to the saniwa or to the offer of talking about it. Why talk, talking won't do anything, actions do. Like how he was stolen, how he was used for revenge.

Words means nothing, only actions.

He finally shakes his head and stares at Takakage with darken eyes, before he quickly turns and run. Run as fast as he can towards Osaka Castle.
