He doesn't have anything further to add, in this vein. Scar still struggles with the idea that this darkness is for the best. However, the previous twelve hours have gone to great lengths in settling his certainty. She wouldn't think she needed to know. She would have preferred never having known. It's the only thing that keeps his mouth shut.
Scar nods his thanks. That's one time bomb defused. He considers his words carefully.
"You're going to carry the shame with you. But it will become livable, with patience."
