[ Although such strong feelings aren't returned, it doesn't make them any less important. No, it actually makes it more significant; those sentiments are what Setsuna carries with him — he remembers them, allowing further meaning to his existence. He will always unquestionably appreciate them. Even if he's no longer deserving to be accepted, people such as Gilgamesh continue to do so regardless. Through their ties and memories, he is shaped into existence. Even if one day they should part, his existence will always remain. He's made a difference, and that very concept is very human. It's why one life matters so much, because even as it should end, the accomplishments of that life will never be fade.
