Martel, look at me. You didn't fail Mithos. The world around him--and you--did. You taught him right from wrong, to help others--no matter who they were. [ Yes, even Sheena had seen that in Mithos. ] And he shared your dream of everyone being accepted--which is why Lloyd had wanted him to stay with us and rebuild the world. [ Which in a way they are, since he had named the Tree after them. ]
Everyone makes mistakes, Martel. The only thing we can do is love them and accept them, and help them through it.
