then how come you started taking in the others? and having proxies? if you had wished to be left alone
I would die without them.
I need them to hunt for me, to feed me, maintain and worship me. I am trapped in the darkness and cannot venture into the light, for all my magic and power I am humbled by the simplest aspect of human life. I cannot stand anything brighter than a low burning candle, now that electric lights consume the world I cannot touch it any longer.
My lost things, my killers and dangerous monsters, serve me differently. They bring fear to the children. The world is safer and safer, but these monsters passed around like scary stories by a camp fire, cause chaos and fear. I need them differently, but I need them.
I am forced from my solitude in order to live.
