The passing of time fascinantes him.
Watching how humanity evolves, both for the good and the bad, was something only godly figures could be privy to. Due to their immortality, they get to observe their puny creations develop.

He is no god.
He is no hero.
He is Nobody.
He is a monster.
And all of the sins and deaths that wrap around his shoulders, that make him hunch over constantly, as if the weight of the world was set on his shoulders, would never let him forget such a thing.
AUGH......
