…and it’s not my place to chase around after you, fixing stuff. What I know’s what I know, and it don’t include putting the world back the way it out to be. It’s too late for that. Way too late for heroes, champions, miracles. Don’t matter what our heritage was maybe meant for – your side got hold of it first, and you won long ago. No undoing that, Esau, I ain’t fool enough to think otherwise. I’m still sorry for you, but I know your side’s won, this side of the grave.
