Noir: Why do you try to suppress the memory? Do you fear hurting someone close to you? Weiss: Preposterous! Noir: You are preposterous! We are mere books, created to serve the Shadowlord! You have no right to forsake Him!

"Oh, Kainé," she said. "Why didn't you fight back? You're stronger than that lot." The words of her grandmother stung Kainé, and she turned away. "Don't be nice to me," she said, "I don't deserve it. Nothing... nothing matters anymore."

Emil: I'm sure there's a reason. ...Grown-ups always have reasons for stuff like that. Weiss: Mmm... A bit of a simplistic analysis, but perhaps true nonetheless. I shall bear that in mind the next time something seemingly meaningless occurs.

Kainé: My grandmother would never say that! She'd never tell me to give up on life! Never! I've spent my entire life searching for a way to avenge her death! She gave me the strength to deal with this goddamn mutant body! Do you know how long I've been like this? How much I loathe myself?

Tyrann: When the time comes, I'm going to pin Kainé down. And as soon as I do, you need to stab her in the heart. Nier: No! I can't! Tyrann: Fine! Don't believe me. Stand around with your thumb up your ass and watch her die a terrible death.

It was the wreath of Lunar Tears. "I'm sorry, Grandma. I'm so sorry. But I don't deserve to wear this anymore. I'm possessed. Corrupted. A freak. And this time, I don't think there's any going back." Holding the flowers to her heart, Kainé fell to the ground and sobbed.
