... I'm sorry that this hasn't gone exactly as planned. I understand that it does fall to us.
[ however they also feel that saying this kind of puts neverah in a position of maybe feeling like she has to deny it, so they quickly add on to prevent that: ]
We'll continue to keep everyone informed as we monitor the situation.
[ that is very loaded so there's a slight pause, but ramiel doesn't comment. it's being a professional time. ]
I'm not able to speak to hypotheticals with absolute certainty. But Should anything happen, we'll speak to you as soon as we're able. At the very least we will make a public statement, though we may not have time for questions right away as the immediate situation would likely require our attention more urgently.
I do think I agree with you there. I also imagine that you wouldn't have done this in the first place if you really believed people would necessarily pick a darker path when presented with the option, correct?
There are people who would. It isn't so much that I believe anyone will be redeemed, but rather that I think they could, and that they deserve the chance, even if they may end up wasting it. I don't expect this process to have a 100% success rate in further iterations in the future.
But I have a good feeling about this group. Despite setbacks.

[she sounds sincere in her thanks, even if using when rather than if might be kind of loaded.]

... Yes. I wish that it had not come to that expectation, but I understand.

I do think your faith in people is admirable, for what it's worth, even if it's unrealistic and dangerous.

this does sound like she means it as a sincere compliment]

I would deserve it.
[ anyway, they shake their head. ]
A chance at redemption run by someone with no faith in others would probably be going worse than this one is. [ unspoken: somehow. ]
