I have a thing to ask; a thing that is not acceptable in my world, but it is part of my story and I think I must acknowledge it. I have noticed that other residents of Hadriel share half of my inclination, at least, and I must ask:

Is it possible for one man or woman to be attracted to both genders? I mean no offense. I admit that my first love - unrequited - was female. My wife was surely female! But there was a male...briefly...though he was naught but a monster seeking to ravage the world.

It isn't your fault. He was the one who betrayed me. He was the one who never loved me. He was the one who killed my wife and daughter before my eyes.

I would like to place my hands around his neck.

「That's just really sad... Atem is not sure what he could say that would make him feel better. If what Curufin has told him mean anything, his son might be incredibly old, surely he had a lot of time to muse over these matters, and even so after this long, he still hurt.」

would that help any?

(No, the memories are fresh. He is old, but these matters happened recently for him - if one ignores the time he has spent in Hadriel.)

It would be a beginning.

「Thats even worse...」

a beginning to what?

is there a chance that this monster hexed you into believing you loved him?

[handofsilver]

Killing him once and for all.

It is possible. (But that doesn't make him feel less guilty.)

If it is my choice what becomes of him, I will not let him perish easily.

i still wish you luck... but dont lose yourself to your hate towards him

[handofsilver]

I have given him too much of myself already. I reserve what is left for my family and those I love.

I would not go that far. If I could survive the torture that befalls me at his hands, I would seek his death relentlessly. Yet since I know I die, I must accept what I was able to do.

The pleasure is mine. I hope I do him credit.
