Frieda Reiss

> "So then you did have to fake it, do you? I am dejected...I was just trying to help you but you did not. You only kill me so you think I don’t understand what I say. But...I understand what you did so fairly. I am blessed into the world where I lived and died. We Eldians, didn’t return back the lives we once took from. I am such a overlacking queen, but... I thank you... And this blood be on you now. And...Take care of my half sister and...Make her have a better life..."
