"You've changed. The Gus that I knew would have tried to strike back and taken a dagger to the gut as punishment for your haste. What made you solely defend? Was it that she had weapons, that she is a fully grown fighter? Or have you just learned how to actually fight now?"

"Defence was the only thing that I could do in that situation," Gus responded. "She was too capable of controlling me with her tempo."

"You've definitely changed," Kaya repeated with a smile. "You've matured from the kid who thought flailing his arms was a satisfactory defence. You're not quite there yet, but you'll be at the point where you can… I don't know. Spite the man who raised you, and prove to his memory that you weren't a failure? I'm sorry, I don't really know what drove you out here."
