"Even more has changed."

Shirai's inner thoughts:
"Though sometimes I think back on things."
"I can't change what happened and I blamed myself for failure."
"How could I save many if I couldn't save one?"
"It took me a long time to come to terms with it."

"And now I get to be someone's hero."
Heavensturn.
