>Do we feel that it would be possible for anyone to use their power if we disapproved of it? Like, if this is all in some way coming from us, can we 'cut someone off', as it were?
>It's... hard to say. But you don't think so. At least not easily. All the other rings did come from yours, but they're fueled by the emotions of the ones that wield them. Following that, the rings may have been generated by the emotional connection you shared with these people, at least in part. If that's the case, severing your own emotional connection to that person might cause their ring to shut down, perhaps even vanish entirely. But you're not certain. If they still have an emotional connection to you, their ring might keep functioning. Assuming their own emotions don't keep the ring going on their own.
>On another hand, outright destroying their ring would work, you think. There's no easy way to replace them, and they seem to be necessary to generate this power. If you were to destroy a ring and then refuse to recreate it, there would be little they could do about it.
>"And you don't feel certain yourself what you would do with it, if you were given the opportunity?"
>"It's a chance I don't want to take. I would be too dangerous if I were to give in to the temptations of power."
>"Just how strong ARE you, Haruka?" White Rose asks quietly.
>The big eagle turns her old eyes to the kasha. "Powerful enough to make a difference. To fight the evils that would prey upon ordinary men and women. And wise enough to understand that with that power comes risk and responsibility. I have accepted the responsibility that comes with the power I have acquired. But I do not know enough about the power you have to know if I can accept the responsibility for it." She turns her head back to you. "However, I know that your power is the one force in this world that is sure to affect the Champions. I do not know if any of the magics that I have can do the same. The time may come when I need the power you offer to make a difference in this fight. If and when that time comes, I shall remember this talk, and the trust you have shown me. But until that time comes, I will keep faith in you girls."
