Yatori of course talks about righteousness and duty. She then told Yatori that she's an empty shell, and for herself, she's fighting for the man she loves (General Remion). To me, it's an important loss to the Empire. This in-fighting stuff really sucks. Hope that we don't lose any more good and key people of the Empire's military.

EDIT: Well, she either told Yatori she was an empty shell or that she didnot know what it means to be a woman? Can't recall actually

Thank you for the answer.

Spoiler:

It's a pity as she was probably a good/lovable character. Was she indeed General Remions lover or was it a one-sided love/admiration? Anyhow, I guess her death will deal a significant blow to the Remion faction (or not?). From this outcome I gather that the rebellion gets stifled in the bud pretty quick (dunno how many days/months passed since the start of the coup d'état) or maybe it was only a fluke that Yatori had the chance to kill her? How are the tides of rebellion forming, i.e. who is winning/losing right now?
Did Yatori had any kind of reaction to that "shell" remark, e.g. did she thought about Ikta in that moment or something?
This time a totally different question, but it was bugging me after reading the scene in the carriage between Inkta and the Princess from volume one; was it ever explained how Yuuka Sankrei (Iktas mother) died?
Sorry for this barrage of questions, curiosity has got the better of me.

Yeah :/ … I really hope that Ikta will save her from this twisted mind-set that her family imposed upon her, but I will be furious if it would only contribute towards her sacrificing herself for him (death).

Yes, the difference between the covers of volume 6 & 7 is like the difference between heaven and earth. I hope that the illustrations inside will follow.
