[As more questions pour from the girl's mouth, Diana realizes that she does not have the answers she's searching for. All she can do is take a moment to collect her thoughts, to think on what she might do herself in such a situation. She'd never known her father, as Zeus had died shortly after she'd been born. And her mother... Diana knows Hippolyta had kept her daughter's true nature from her out of love, but she still isn't quite sure how to feel about it. Would things have been different if she'd known earlier? Could she have saved the people of Veld?
Would Steve still be alive?
Her own questions are too much to think on right now, especially in the midst of a memory she loves so much, so she instead focuses on her companion's worries.]
Then you must live with your decisions, and fight to make them the right ones.
[Amazons had always been a practical people, and Diana is hardly ever an exception. It is a cruel truth, perhaps, but a truth all the same. There is a slight bit of empathy in her eyes, wondering what this girl has been through for her to ask such questions, to seek such reassurance. But it is not her place to ask, as she realizes now that the girl is not just a creation of her own mind. Diana has answered these questions for herself, would not dream to ask them again. She had left Themyscira, had been warned she might never return. She's made peace with that decision, even if a part of her heart is still broken for it.]
