At the end of a war, you were the only one who had mercy to forgive the struggling few survivors of what had been a clan of importance and cruelty. In all the time I have known you, and though there were many, many years in which you were gone, it has still been almost my entire life, your intentions have always been to protect, to shield, to help. You have never struck out unprovoked, and though really bad things happened, it was never your intent.
You never asked, let alone took, anything for yourself, for your own enrichment or to make you look better. Instead, you spent a time when people feared how powerful you were and what you might intend - you spent that time inventing things that the same people who feared you would use, and make their lives better.
I may be still young, but in my life, I have known only two people who might hold up in comparison to you. And they are Hanguang-jun and Zewu-jun.
[things are clearer, now. no less grim, to be sure, and the details are still vague, hidden behind careful phrasing, but wei wuxian feels himself enlightened - relieved, in a way, morbid as it is to have the facts of your death laid out so gently.
he did good. will do good, eventually, when he returns home.
wei wuxian can find peace in that.]

I'm sorry, this is not mine to judge. But all I have known you to do is to try to help and protect people.
If that is not good, I don't know what is.
And yes. You have done a lot of good. And I have no doubt you will do more.
