"So much for protecting the lives of many," Ishtar scoffed.
"At the least, that is better than killing Time." Ishtar said with a shrug, as the information revealed by this ... strange Zaofan, sunk in. "It is also nice to know, at least, that I am the best possible version of myself. An Ishtar who stoops so low as to play the part of Raider, is not an Ishtar at all."
It was however, far more sorisinf, that Jinzi was the Doctor.
Not of this when, clearly ... but of some when far off. Though I né the surprise settled, it certainly made sense in retrospect. The hybrid. The autonomous army ... the teleportation blocking chaff. All doable by few and fewer ... though as to why she missed this truth ?
"He stated we were lovers once. I never once considered Jinzi for such a thing ... at least not in this when; and more focused was I on protecting Zurvan ... and those idiots, as you call them, that Jinzi failed to kill."
At the end of the day though, Zaofan's mind seemed made up. He was not leaving without their Jinzi. So Ishtar sighed, and finished off her pudding; before sighing.
"Are you really set on this, then ?"
