I had spent a good deal of time rebelling against her - Mystra. Her directives, her ideals, her expectations of me. I had chosen to begin experimenting with powers previously forbidden to me, to learn magic I was not to touch in my time with her. Out of anger, or bitterness, or simply curiosity.
And I think when faced with that moment, the moment of choice - and I considered her directive - I ... snapped back the other direction too sharply.

I really, truly don't know what to say. [She blinks.] I'm sorry we weren't a match.
[He could very much use that wish, yes. Her eyes hit his and she regrets the glib shit. She sets her hands to his shoulders, keeping his gaze.]
Mostly, I'm just sorry. That's not...it's beyond my imagination. But you didn't deserve it. I can grasp that much.
