Your story just reminded me of something from back home. It's about my father.
[ Weiss doesn't really get into too much background, but prefaces it by saying "My father is a jerk". She tells him about how he's so manipulative and greedy, and apart from heading the Schnee Dust Company, he ran for a seat in the council in Atlas and cheated his way to the seat. ]
He worked with a criminal to cheat in the elections and even gave the said criminal access to all of Atlas' systems in the military and everything else. So many lives were in danger when that happened, because the heat was turned off, and that's never good in the tundras. It got cold so quickly.
Not to mention, all that negativity attracted Grimm.
I arrested him. [ With the help of her mother, of course, and General Ironwood, but she'd rather not talk about the General for now. ]
When it came to evacuating everyone from Atlas, I... chose to have my father be evacuated too. Otherwise, he'd probably... [ Her words slow as she finds some difficulty saying the next words. ] Die in his cell.
[ To this day, Weiss doesn't know that her father never did make it out alive. And she'll never know until she finds herself back in Remnant, however long that may take. ]
If you were given the choice, would you have left him behind in a falling kingdom? Or would you have saved him even if he's caused you so much pain and grief, too?
