& from the villain sentence starters. @sinsoko said: ❛ the question isn’t who is going to let me, it’s who is going to stop me. ❜ (amakusa ruler)
“...” Lakshmibai was quiet following the explanation of what his plan. It was so strange to her --- Ruler was a soft-spoken man. Gentle. He had charisma and had clearly tricked many people into going along with his plan without them even realizing what it was.

“You know the difference between right and wrong, Ruler, especially as a man of faith. I want you to reconsider if what you are doing is actually on the side of peace and justice,” she told him, scoldingly. Ruler was too virtuous to be making such grave errors in judgement. It angered her.
“I hope that you will stop yourself... once you realize you have made a mistake.”
