Of course. I've never been above consequences. I knew exactly what I was doing, and yet I did it anyway.

Atrocious, isn't it? Sickening. I had the sense to abandon the notion that killing could ever be righteous, and yet I didn't abandon the killing itself.

What sort of punishment, I wonder, could ever be enough to force repentance out of a creature like that? How do you ever make a being like me change its mind?
