[Should she laugh at that? Because she does, before she similarly grows more solemn.
She hasn't really been thinking about what it'll mean once everything is over here. She hasn't wanted to, considering. And right now, she can't. It has to wait until later. Alisaie nods.]
I don't plan to die this week. For one thing, I'd never hear the end of it from you or Alphinaud.
But there's another reason. All of these deaths are sacrifices to the angels. If either side manages to destroy the other team... That's how all of these Calamities have happened. We believe that the Dust of those sacrificed is what gives the angels their power to destroy worlds during the Inquisition.
There are two subsets of us with higher levels of Dust than the others. Those of us with roles, and those of us that have killed.
