She appeared amused and even impressed by how much battle Rui sought. The very notion of it was likely unfathomable to an elf, who would generally have loved nothing more than to be left with her sisters in nature.
Mother Maeria's gaze returned to the letter. "My sister seeks to have the Mothers of Nature of both our civilizations achieve Enlightenment of Oneness. With both of our civilizations enlightened, we will be able to reunite, having abandoned our ego and individuality and gaining the capacity to forgive whatever we blame each other for."
"That will be beneficial for human civilization in the long run as well," Rui remarked. "While I don't mind the light elves yearning to kill me, I do mind a hostile relationship between the light elves and human civilization. If they were to gain enlightenment and then merge with the dark elves seamlessly and adopt values similar to yours, then human civilization would be safer."
