[Tohsaka was like this before Yima. It's a part of her family's ideals after all. To seek the Truth of the World while maintaining as much elegance as possible. Zenith goals and way of life simply had suited her. They reflected the life of a mage, the life she had molded herself to fit. Where she was born into; where she had believed to belong.

In fact a part of her wanted to call it off — only remembering the part about Lucien at first — but he had so kindly reminded her about his offer to teach. Still, she was helpless. Still, she felt lesser when she should have been able to do more.]

[She does not want to 'speak' Lucien's name. His omission should be enough.]
