[ Azura attends, and she does give her testimony, which she remains entirely flat-faced through despite the things she has to recount, same as everyone else.

It's the execution that rattles her more. She debates not going, but most people seem to be, and...maybe this might give her some kind of satisfaction? It doesn't, though, it just makes her stomach twist and an ache go through her broken arm despite the painkillers she'd taken. ]


...I don't understand.

[ said very, very quietly, only so as the people nearest her can hear ]

Would it not be more fitting to put them in prison for the rest of their lives? Does the blood they shed have to be met with more blood?

[ She knows saying that might make some people think she's soft, but. This all feels so off. Like a really hollow victory. ]
