[And it's not so much the people themselves when Enjolras mentions the death of the monarchy but...well, that is a little harder to get across, he supposes.]

Perhaps so. I would not wish to give off the impression. ...The Empress began bringing us here to fight the evil before it spread to our home worlds. I can understand that reasoning, I can support it, though I did not like it. Her intentions were not so terrible at that, and she, and the Emperor, do strive to give us safety in this place. I would not wish to imply...

Well, things are simply different at home. There is illness, there is starving, there are so many deaths in the street that may be prevented if the king, if the way of life surrounding all aristocrats were ceased. If that should mean the deaths of those who do not agree, well, I am willing to make that happen, though I do not undertake it lightly. Did not.

[And there is a bit of a sheepish look as he ducks his head a little.]

Our Emperor here though, well. I can support the cause that we're a part of, at least. I do not mean to imply that...there are those circumstances where one is forced to put aside deeper ideals for greater safety, even though we do not like it very much.
