It's because I loved you

"We have already started to destroy the forts. I apologize for starting without receiving your signal first."

"It's alright. Shiba informed me of the situation. Is everyone..safe?"

"When I decided to take over the resistance, my first job was freeing all the squires and knights in the tower and those who are loyal to you. Right now they make up the main force of the resistance."

'Because I knew that is what you wanted. The reason why Queen Lethia couldn't do anything to the people loyal to Lyn was this. It was because he was still in the castle. If the Queen harmed Lyn's knights, it would be similar to harming me.'

If he just left the knights alone in the castle, Queen Lethia would have directed her anger towards the knights. She would have had an excuse to kill them. So naturally he had to take them along.

"Thank you so much Allen."

"You do not need to thank me. I almost left them alone."
