There was a grim look on Erich's face as he was led towards the area where his scavenged power armor was kept by the members of Emrys's personal guard. While he walked,Erich was debating within his own mind whether or not he should save or terminate Tia.
Of course, the biggest question on his mind was just how he would actually save Tia. He did not have another set of power armor to download her files onto, or any other storage device that was capable of containing such a vast amount of information.
Not to mention he would be watched during the entire process. One wrong move, and he would be considered a traitor to the Empire. If that were to happen, Erich doubted he would escape from the Supreme Leader's Palace alive.
As he approached security, who was currently in the act of examining the power armor, Erich realized that there was simply no feasible way he could save Tia, and thus his heart bled as he came to a realization about what he had to do.
