Wow, you're on a roll! First you break Chira, and now you're putting Thea down! Won't be long before you alienate yourself from the rest of your friends. You know you weren't made for such attachments anyway, right? Better off without them.
Dalamus stares blankly, knowing the words to be true, but instead of feeling sorrow about it, he chose anger to protect himself.
"It was not my fault! Chira asked for answers, and I gave them to her. Thea asked for the truth, and I told it. I am not at fault when I did the morally correct thing! Perhaps they got what they deserved and should not ask questions that they do not want the answers to."
He did not mean what he was saying, but it felt better to blame others than accept that the greymage might be right.
