People judge people. Lives are being cut short because of someone's 
personal logic. Mothers, fathers, friends...their entire paths 
instantly vanish into thin air. The question is, should this take place 
at the whim of one individual? A beautiful woman stood before the 
corpses of the Roderick thieves. She told me that she was merely 
discarding some useless garbage. Dominique the Cyclops told me to just 
think of it as "Spring cleaning."- Vash
