    Summary

    Part 2 in a 3-part (so far) series of unrelated "what if" stores crossposted from fanfiction.net because AO3 has better archiving.

    What if the Black Knights didn't turn on Lelouch when they found out he was Zero? Without the power of his despair, Lelouch has more to lose, and yet more to gain in defeating Britannia. But his tools and motives have changed, and winning starts to look like losing as he finally tallies the cost of his actions.
