Violet Evergarden: Recollections

Violet was educated as a weapon and not a normal human being, which made her expressionless and did not understand human feelings well. She was raised as a person who didn't have feelings, although she does have them; She struggles however, to recognize how someone else might feel. For this reason, she could be mistaken as emotionless, or apathetic. When she was found by Dietfried, Violet couldn't speak or understand speech, except for the order "Kill". She did not possess any sense of right or wrong from the start; she didn't understand what could be considered righteous or erroneous. She merely chased after the adults who gave her orders. She followed the mantra of "kill or be killed," thus she could kill without feeling guilt or remorse. She did anything that was asked of her and always followed orders, which was a trait from her life as a soldier. Even after the war ended and she was discharged from the military, Violet had a habit of using words back from her life as a soldier; saluting, disliking being defenseless, and doing tasks without taking any breaks. She also continued to think of herself as a "tool" and believed that it would be appropriate to discard her if she can no longer be used as a weapon.
