[This question seems to arise nearly every time. Who does Zelda wish to be? Ozymandias has seen Zelda not so much grapple with it before as run from it. There is something easier about not addressing it, certainly. That comes with its own hardships, of course. In avoiding it endlessly, Zelda is setting herself up for that lifetime of emptiness as she fulfills the role of what she is meant to be by the standards of others and there is never that opportunity to shed the guilt she carries from her past. But it is easier in the end to become what others want you to be. There is no thought. The path is laid out before you regardless of how difficult it is to walk.]
[It is a much more difficult thing to grab hold onto one’s destiny and to shape it with your own hands. To forge your own path without hesitation and to hold your ground even when things may threaten to crumble. His suggestion is a gentle one.]
Then perhaps it is time that it becomes one again.
[Zelda doesn’t see her own strength that much is clear. But Ozymandias believes her capable of this.]
