Ep. 11

Summary

Source-backed · Version: v1 · Original

CH Postal receives a request from a soldier in Ctrigal, where moderates and anti-peace forces are fighting a civil war. Hodgins refuses to send a Doll into the combat zone, but Violet travels independently after hearing that the client may have little time. Soldier Aidan Field's unit is ambushed and destroyed before she reaches him. Violet parachutes into enemy territory, drives off the attackers without killing them, and carries the mortally wounded Aidan to shelter. Knowing he will not survive, he dictates letters to his parents and to Maria, his childhood friend. He thanks his family, apologizes for dying far from home, and finally expresses the love he and Maria never openly confessed. Violet types beside him as he imagines returning to them. When his strength fails, she holds his hand so he will not die alone. Violet delivers the letters in person. Aidan's parents and Maria are devastated but grateful to receive his final voice. She collapses outside, apologizing because she arrived too late to keep him alive. Once trained to end lives without hesitation, she now risks her own safety to preserve a stranger's last feelings and grieves that words were the only rescue she could provide.
