There have been a lot of strange incidents over the past months, where people abruptly lost control of themselves and acted on repressed desires, without regard for consequences. I'd like to provide an explanation for them.
When I arrived here, it was at the behest of a powerful and dangerous mage by the name of Masayoshi Shido. He wanted me to sabotage the school, and undermine the faith of both the students and the larger magical community in Daybreak's ability to manage and protect Candles. He wanted to weaken the school's image, in order to take over as the one in charge of overseeing the development of Flames.
He ordered this in complete awareness that such an upset would only hurt humanity's chances of overcoming Nightfall. His only priority was that he, and the people he deemed significant, survived and were able to continue leading their privileged lives. He believed himself to be a destined savior, but thought only a select few were worth saving, even if it meant turning his back on the masses.
I'm coming forward with this now because his conspiracy is finally undone. I told Daybreak's faculty of his schemes in October, and we were finally able to mount a covert counterattack at the end of last month. He wasn't alone in these plans, but his accomplices should be in too much disarray for a while to react effectively. I think I owe this explanation to everyone who's been affected by my actions, so I decided to say something now, while I have the breathing room.
This isn't a plea for forgiveness or mercy, I know everyone this matters to has every right to hate me. But I do hope you sleep a little better, knowing what happened and that there's no further chance of it happening again.

If you're not able to even understand that, then you've no hope of properly making amends.

I don't know how yet, but...I've hurt different people in different ways, so I'd owe them different reparations, anyway.

[Honestly everyone else pretty much said her thoughts on the matter, but she also didn't think it was right to just drop it suddenly.]

I wish I'd had the courage to speak up when I first arrived, before I was expected to start carrying out my orders.
