Maybe. Though the Prism isn't always keen on listening to what we truly want. [...] But if that miracle was really a once in a lifetime deal, then... What's gonna happen if the refracted make it out of their execution alive?

[rindude]

...what's the likelihood of that happening, you think? Especially if you guys think they are refracting by then.

[pura]

To get to that point, they will have already killed someone. What's stopping them from killing yet another person if they chose combat?

[rindude]

Nothing, but...I feel like the people who enter that area have been decent fighters. Even against people refracting.

[pura]

So you think the executioner will always win?

[rindude]

I think it's been a pretty proven pattern so far, but...even patterns have anomalies. There may be a time the executioner doesn't win, but I don't think that'll happen at this point if things go the way they have been.

[pura]

...

[She seems pretty doubtful of this, but she nods nonetheless.]

For our sake and yours, I hope you aren't mistaken about that, Riff-san.

[rindude]

That makes two of us. [sigh.] ...we just have to keep hoping for the best, whatever that might be. And be ready for whatever outcome we get.

[pura]

... It's really all we can do as soon as the execution starts, huh?

[rindude]

Unless we think of a better plan for the night before, yeah.
