Unforeseen Tragedy

No one saw it coming, and it took us all by surprise. This tragedy, I would say, is by far the worst our ministry division has ever seen. It wasn't so much the damage done, for…he could simply heal from it; it was that someone as powerful and revered as him show to be so… foolish, in making his decisions. I would have expected Tsuzuki to do it if it were me in danger, and I was about to go…hadn't I been stalled by his shocking action. I was completely taken aback. …it was not in his nature… He wasn't Tsuzuki's partner…

He's recovering now, but I doubt that…Tsuzuki will recover quite as easily. It hurt him more than… death, perhaps. It's late, and I need to check on them both. Touching the side of my head, where a bandage is covering my left ear, I wonder if there was some way I could have prevented this…
