Well, HiME!Mashiro wasn't what I'd call completely
open and honest either.  I thought that was the whole
point of the ending - that the original HiMEs have
locked up the information so tight that now, when the
second generation are looking for answers, they will
consider this most untrustworthy of sources more
reliable than their parents - because he's actually
willing to *tell them something*.

I foresee a lot of conflict and angst in future
chapters, when the adult HiMEs are opposed by their
kids (you know it's gonna happen, just check TV
Tropes), because the kids' information tells them the
HiMEs are the bad guys - and the HiMEs realise that a)
if only they'd sat down and told the kids first, this
would never have happened, and b) they're going to
have to fight anyway.

I believe in dragons, unicorns, good men
and other mythical creatures.
