I realize how it sounds. [And yet, Vincent will go to her defense.] Lucrecia was determined, but a gentle soul. That in turn meant she would do whatever it was that Hojo ordered her to do.

I was... her bodyguard, and I couldn't keep her from this mistake. Nor could I save Sephiroth from Hojo's influence, either. At least, not until he had arrived in Aldrip.

Ultimately, I couldn't save Lucrecia from herself. I was told she died while giving birth. I could never... make it up to her.
