"Tomoe, now that I've lost you, I finally understand your suffering. You endured much. You protected me and saved me. You suffered pain and hatred, but now there's no need for you to suffer any longer. I must take responsibility for your suffering for the rest of my life…I must find atonement for those that died for me and those I killed. I'll be okay. I'll never forget how you taught me about human warmth. I must separate from you for now, but we will be together again." Kenshin
