[Alice can be seen washing something in the sink at Needle in a Haystack. Upon further inspection, it's the vorpal blade, along with what used to be her good apron. She's conscious enough to already have cleaned herself up, her hair still wet and Alice in a simple, white dress, that might as well be the Victorian equivalent of a nightgown. Of course the knife comes with her, at her side.

Alice hates these attacks, they leave her drained. It shows in her face, her disconnect, distance, and her eyes almost hollowed. These things certainly take a toll on her, and Alice is tired of it.]

Those who speak of sacrifice usually mean they should be made by others, but that's not the case anymore.

Or is it?

Them? Only one is dead, or do you mean the armies outside or something else?

All of them.

[She could sympathize. Part of her probably did still want them dead, every last one of them. It was only part, however.]

The Giants first. One step at a time.

Just gives me more time to plan out creative ways to make it last. Don't be too impatient. Impatience gets you killed.
