Yet... Kain found himself unable to move on from the past. He couldn't let any of it go, nor forgive himself for it. He sighed. Of course Rydia would say something like that. Cecil and Rosa had forgiven him too willingly, as well...

"I know they were copies. That still doesn't erase the fact of what I'm capable of. What I have done in the past..." He was forever a traitor, it was as simple as that. This past incident, and that brief time where he'd believed his penance ruined... well. It wasn't anything he wanted to think about, either. Especially not around anyone else.
