Video - UN: ashfalls
I don't understand it.
[It's probably pretty late at night when she shows up on the video feed. She's looking better than she did right after the fight anyway. Her face on the video is still bandaged but the bruises and wounds that were visible before are almost entirely gone. She could be fully healed but she'd declined most healing, opting just for enough to keep her alive and deciding to rely on her pewter and Allomancy for the rest.]
This world has everything. The air and the skies are clear, the water is clean, things grow freely here. It isn't perfect, maybe, but it's still a place where people can just live.
[She frowns, but as melancholy as she seems her voice still sounds hard. She's not just lamenting what happened, it could be said she looks like somebody trying to work out a puzzle.]
So why would somebody want to destroy it like that? No matter how hard I think about it, I can't make any kind of sense about it.
Or maybe I was just naive to think somebody like that couldn't exist in a place like this too.
[She shakes her head, sighing, and shakes her head before cutting off the video though her expression still looks as troubled as before.]
Nevermind. I'm rambling.

video - un: seylum
[Asseylum's expression is painted rueful.]
I grew complacent, too... The moment I realized that longstanding conflict existed on El Nysa, I knew better than to hold onto the hopes that it would be a perfectly peaceful refuge for us. And yet... [Her eye contact drifts down.] I still clung to them. It was hard not to. My own life, my everyday routine, felt worlds away from the greater strife taking place beyond it. And before I knew it, destruction swallowed us. We were powerless to stop it.
