seen your fair share of fighting, have you?
when i first laid eyes on you, i had a feeling you were a tough bastard.
easy, killer. i couldn't care less who you are or what you've done
the only thing i'm looking for these days is a like-minded partner.
you'll be doing them a favor putting them out of their misery.
you can be sure that they haven't forgotten the day the bastard came through…
well, i was planning to tell you the whole story eventually, but I suppose now is as good a time as any…
there wasn't time to mourn or to think.
i could never say no to her. not once in the years we'd been together.
i swore then and there i'd have my vengeance.
sorry to have kept you waiting, sinner.
"no such thing as a thing without value." that's the creed of these folk.
he… he can't keep getting away with it…
it's just… every time i cut one down, it reminds me of my first.
i've been there, so maybe it'll help me to find the right words. not that there ever are any.
how many such innocents will die before you do what must needs be done?
so I am to gamble with their lives instead? let them shield me while i alone take shelter and look down on them from on high!?
i will not stand idly by when i have the power to make a difference.
indeed, i have dealt with many a stubborn child in my life…
he's a murderer, and i'll not hear it said otherwise.
every night i go to bed dreaming of the day i'll take my revenge.
while your thirst for vengeance is quite natural and understandable, it is ultimately misguided.
hate and anger and vengeance are all i've got now!
this is how it has to be, hmm? who you have to be?
you are most tenacious, but everyone has their limits…
don't you touch her, you bastard!
am I… your princess still?
would you honor your vows, even now?
i'll not hesitate again. no matter the cost - no matter the sacrifice…
indeed, there is comfort and certainty in hatred… but it is a false and fleeting comfort.
the unwavering blade cares not whom it serves nor who it cuts.
i wanted to hollow myself out… and fill up that hole with hate.
“hard men” making hard choices… what rot.
i don't need the hate. never did.
i can't live off hate. shouldn't've made it this far, frankly.
no, i will not forsake compassion and love.
has the turmoil in your heart subsided at last?
are you getting misty-eyed at the thought of us parting ways?
you will forgive me for eschewing further formalities, as time is of the essence.
you saved my life, and one good turn deserves another.
in these troubled times, fear and despair can drive even the goodliest of souls to desperate ends.
no road is closed to those true of heart.
keep heart, for brighter days lie ahead of us.
we can cower in fear, or we can strive to lift one another's flagging spirits.
i've seen the dead with my own eyes - don't tell me what is and isn't true!
is there naught that can be done for these poor souls?
this storm has passed, but a darker tempest roils in the distance.
maybe we didn't choose to be born this way, but i don't think it makes us that different from everyone else.
you've suffered terrible trials, yet still you stand tall and resolute.
you grow numb to the violence and the killing out of necessity.
when the dust had settled, i was another body clinging to life amongst the fallen.
i could not keep watch over you at all hours, not even if I tried.
your reputation for magnanimity is well deserved!
truth be told, i couldn't remember the ancient rite's name, so I just made something up on the spot.
my duty weighed heavy on my heart - so heavy that at times i scarce remembered to breathe.
i was not there for you then, but i am here for you now
you were inspiring to behold - and not for the first time, I must say…
in all our time together, i have never seen you so hard-pressed.
i do what i love, and desire naught else.
