[ Insist on the risk. That's an interesting turn of phrase. Aro really doesn't see it that way. Perhaps he should. Perhaps he's too focused on disliking the idea of being drafted into all of this. ]

Tell me something. Do you know what it's like to be your own master? No one tells you were to go, or how to be or what to do or what jobs you can and cannot take, because it's all up to you. Every risk you take, or don't take, is your own. When things go wrong, there's no one to blame, there's a lesson learned. Some are harder than others but they're yours, and no one else's.

That's why. That's really the only reason why.
