She reaches up to pull off the half-goggle that's been functioning as an eyepatch for her, then looks up at Minato with both eyes open. The one she always covers... there's something in there, but it's blank. Just white glass, no iris nor pupil.]
I made an attempt to escape from my former master once before. It was short-lived, I had little idea where I was going or what I was doing surviving on my own.
He found me, as was inevitable. Brought me back, and removed my right eye. To "match him," as his is scarred and blinded. So that I might "never forget who I belong to."
That was the punishment for hurting under his care and wishing for better.
