Sera's Confession

I don't know what to do

Thought I was righteously leading our people, but

Now I'm faced with the truth

What kind of leader can't tell good from evil?

All those poor souls, how many could have been saved?

How could I trust in a justice so cruel and depraved?

One seeks an answer that one cannot grant her

You're looking for light only you can ignite

Every transgression must serve as a lesson

Yesterday, you drew sorrow

What will you do tomorrow?

I feel no wiser than when I commanded the slaughter of those sons and daughters

(You can't hide)

How can I be sure I don't repeat more massacre based on mistaken conceit?

(Look inside)

If I stand down and leave us exposed, would that be blind to the threat Hell may pose?

You can't know, though time flows on

So you must bear the cross bestowed upon you

Take pity, I pray

Give me a sign, what's your guidance?

Please show me the way

You speak of choices made by other voices

You can only atone (tell me how to atone)

Once you speak with your own

If souls from damnation

Can earn their salvation

And find their forgiveness on high

How do I?
