[He heaves a sigh as he settles back against the wall.]
When I think about how I let myself stray from the path, and then commit more and more atrocities while reassuring myself it was all for the greater good... That sort of a person is... difficult for me to forgive.
I wasn't forced. Coerced, at best. Yet the corruption already had a seed inside of me before... that god played any part.
I know better than to argue against you all. I know some of you have your own stories of similar or worse misdeeds.
[He's quiet for awhile, then looks slowly to Aiden.]
... I'm almost certain I have one myself, you know. [He gives a weak smile.] A Palace... [He looks away, the smile quickly falling apart.] Again.
