[Rhea'li lets silence reign for a moment, emotions calm.]
Though you think yourself incapable of being loved, Hythlodaeus loves you still, does he not?
[He's just going out on a limb here, going off what he observed from their time in Elpis, from the ghosts of the man once was -- both real and created -- and their time summoned in Ultima Thule. And, of course, their interactions here in Nippon.]
'Tis true Azem may decide to break the bond, for your sins are many and the burden heavy. Yet they may decide to keep it. You know not your future with Azem, but until that bond is broken [and even then, bonds can be mended] you have one, imperfect as it is.
[He does not have something so symbolic as a flower to pierce through the despair held in Hades' heart. But he does stand and reach over to press a hand over Hades heart, the same motion that both he and Azem had done to bond with him.]
To believe there is something better than the present, no matter how slim the chance... That is hope, is it not?
