I can appreciate those feelings. [She knows how much Sigurd suffered when he was unable to save his dear friend--how people like Ayra and Jamke felt, having been princes in their homeland and unable to preserve them from falling. It feels strange that it was Ethlyn's own birthplace they fell to... circumstances that should never have arisen.] It isn't an easy thing when your homeland isn't what you thought it was.

Still, I believe that someone who is determined to understand his mistakes--to learn from them--would make a better leader than many I've known, no matter what those mistakes are.
