"I know it's hard to think about this right now," he started slowly, carefully. "But what would you have preferred? Would you have wanted Apollo to refuse in that stall, and die? Or would you want him to live, to see him again?" he was not preaching, and his tone was steady.
Ariel wasn't sure, and her mind was so clouded by pain she could barely comprehend. ONly Apollo's confession had stuck out. "I, I don't know."
"Well I can't tell you," he sighed wearily. "My opinion shouldn't matter. You just have to ask yourself, could you live with Apollo after what he's done? If you can't, then why? It's a choice you alone have to make, Ariel," he stared at her kindly, and he felt strained, watching her suffer in such a way.
