[ Although Erwin knows that Kenny is talking about the coups, he can't help but find irony in the question more broadly. A wry smile crosses his face, twisting his lips into a not-quite grimace. So many opportunities stolen, so many bodies broken and strewn across the ground, a blood-soaked earth. All that he had sought had been true, but he hadn't gotten to see it for himself. Sometimes the bitterness of it all feels overwhelming. How close...how fucking close he'd been. But it all would have been for nothing if he hadn't been the one to lead the charge. ]

It did. [ It's the truth on that score, at least. ] More or less.

I'm sorry we never had the chance to meet.
