[ a terrible tale. this is far removed from the stories he had read; set, in them, had not been a victim of human men. ]

i am so sorry for what happened in your world. to you. to your women.

lexi talks sometimes about how humans destroy each other, how we're no better than the vampires. maybe he's right.

maybe anyone who has power will use it to hurt other people, and power itself is the problem.

i don't want to be that way. i don't want to hurt anyone else, i'd want them not to go through what i did.

but i'm not perfect. it took me a long time to see lexi as anything other than another vampire. longer still, to trust him. and still now i only trust that he cares about me, not that he would do any good for the rest of my people. i'm bitter enough. but that's not how i want to live. what's the point in having freedom if i'm still living in that cage?

[ He hates admitting to anything. Part of him balks at the idea of even hinting at what he had gone through; an unforgivable weakness, that was all his own fault. Maybe it's why he's quick to clarify ( to lie ). Anything so that he isn't looked upon as someone who had violence visited upon HIM, even if it contradicts his tone. ]

Save your lamentations solely for the women. I would not be so quick with your sympathy for me. I only was speaking of all the work Osiris put me to fighting his wars, while he sat easy as God Supreme! And coveted my wife! Stole the lineage of my own child to "reward me with family", and told me it was because I was DEFECTIVE as a man.

I am the god that poisoned my land, after all.

The stories you tell among one another are not so different. I wanted power. I took power. And I wanted to hurt people.

I wanted to know why you would not. Do you not want to lash out and harm... Lexi? He is a vampire, whatever that is. You were tormented by vampires. You could take it out on him, a little.

no, i

well, i love lexi. i don't want to hurt him, that's the last thing i'd want.

but i have, lashed out at others. i did when i was young, i have a lot of scars for a reason.
and then. more recently, when one of them meant to kill me, i lashed out and i killed him. that's how i escaped from my field. and then on the road, there were others, and i killed them every time.

it just looks and feels like light to me, but it's dangerous. it turned them all to ash. it comes out when i'm in danger but it's inside me all the time.

i don't want that to happen when i don't mean it to. there's nothing good about hurting anyone else.
