"And what about you?"
Ravenna retorted coldly, "How complete are you, and to what realms can you reach?"
"I cannot achieve it either, but the difference between you and me lies in..."
Helen's carving knife paused slightly as she tilted her head to look at Ravenna, her eyes devoid of light, filled with "self"-loathing.
"I have come to recognize and accept this fact."
She continued her work, adding, "I have realized and accepted that with Father's guidance, I was able to continuously improve the universal synthesizer to the sixth model in such a short time. But after my father left... for three whole years, I have struggled to make any progress."
As Helen spoke, her usually indifferent face softened.
"You are right, Ravenna. Even without those fifteen years of scheme, my heart still yearns to change the world, and even now... I have not completely given it up."
