Better to Die Than Be Killed/Quotes

"''Dearest Helena,

By the time you receive this message, news of our defeat will have reached the Earth. The creatures we were sent here to tame are untameable. The colonies we were sent here to reclaim proved to be more formidable than we anticipated.

Whatever you may know about what happened here today, know this: Alexei did not die gloriously in battle. I killed him. My pride killed him. My pride continues to consume me even now.

You will never see me again, Helena.

Tell our children that I love them, and that their father died in defense of their future.

Au revoir''"
