[ Contrary to what one might expect of a ‘prison’, Jhin’s 19 years in Tuula actually weren’t traumatic and horrible for the most part. Of course, it was still a prison for him, and he was kept under careful observation at all times.

Their aim at keeping him imprisoned in Tuula was rehabilitation as averse to punishment(something they were never successful at). Jhin had a lot of privileges while he was imprisoned, and he was on a first name, buddy-buddy basis with most of the monks who resided there. He also developed most of his cooking skills in Tuula, as they’d eventually assign him to to the kitchen to help prepare the days meals for everyone in the monastery. He was trusted enough for this, even if he did, on occasion, “slip-up” in his “healing process” and murder a stray monk or four-- which wasn’t as often as you’d think. Being as exposed as he was in Tuula, he tended to shut that part of himself off as much as he could; for a multitude of reasons.

One big reason they refuse to kill him and seek to try and heal him from whatever is wrong with his mind is due to the sheer improbability of death in Ionia. The chance of him coming back as a vengeful, and likely incredibly powerful spirit should he die, is way too high to risk.

Jhin is 100% aware that this is one of the reasons he’s still alive, and while a part of him does actually want to try to get better, he knows that that would probably mean he’d end up being assassinated shortly after he was ‘fixed’. It would also inhibit his ability to create, not just in the sense of uh... murder art, but as a whole, which is something he wholeheartedly believes shouldn’t be repressed or stifled. He also just doesn’t really believe he can be redeemed, on a more depressing note. What is done is done, no redemption, yada yada, dramatic introspective tortured artist noises. ]
