But we have to follow the leads that we do have. Find what we can. There's the promise that we can bring people back, and the nova will restore, but we have to be willing to face what that might ask of us.
If the splintering spreads like a disease would, it has to be culled before it can spread, until we can get to the source. I know I would rather be killed than left to become a husk, if I were infected.

But I won't ever say to stop looking for a better way. Should there be another choice and we find it, then all the better.

We should definitely keep looking, it's just... with the leaders having forgotten everything, and the rest of us having to keep things secret so we don't disturb the Realm even more, it's going to be hard to find something else. Or even if we do, to share that information safely, and that's even before factoring in how long it could take to find it.

There should be a better way than that. I hate that it's not giving us a choice.
