She crosses her arms. "It remains to be seen. We don't remember much of what happened afterward, but—Iris said... it was worth it. So I have faith that it was."

She sighs.

"Always. It's the least we can do for her, now."

"Well, I'm not the one to talk to about uncertainty. That's not what I do. But do you think this is the sort of test that has a right answer, like your question implies?"

She shrugs. "Still, though—I'd say the question is less the truth of the past, and more what the past implies about the future."

A debate on your certainty in the value of your actions doesn't necessarily have a "right" answer, either.
