I wanted to thank everyone who helped bring down the Spire. Thank you.

There are still a few creatures under my control. I don't want to release them back into the wild as most of them will pose a danger to us. I'll keep a few but I can't keep all. Would anyone be willing to look after one of them? I am able to make them listen to you.

I have three hell hounds in my care. Would you and maybe your friends want one?

They are made to entertain humans so they do take their perspective.

But from the perspective of a human, your grandfather is not a good man. In fact, my life and now his presence have taught me that good and evil are misconceptions. They highly depend on the point of view.

I barely know your story and I will not pry for it as it is yours to tell. I just want to warn you that your grandfather is not your average human being.

	Does that mean you don't believe the man was evil? Perhaps it is best I don't have any preconceived notions about him. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Let me allow to ask you a question in return: what is evil for you? I believe so. But it is hard to go into any interaction without expectations. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Treating sentient beings as toys or lab rats for one's amusement. I've trained myself not to expect much to avoid disappointment. I suppose that could be an expectation in in itself. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Sentient beings? When does a being stop being sentient? I guess it is. But it is a good attitude. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Then yes, according to your definition I would say he is evil. I would also say many children are. I often found that children treat animals as their toys. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Maybe he did not either. There are some people who cannot feel empathy because they lack certain parts in the brain. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	You're suggesting he was mentally ill? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Lucy daddyissues_ 2017-07-09 07:38 pm UTC (link)
	No. I am saying that I do not know his story. It is a possibility. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Katherine lucyfightsback 2017-07-09 07:41 pm UTC (link)
	I think he was very aware of what he was doing. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Did you ever have any contact with him? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Katherine lucyfightsback 2017-07-09 07:54 pm UTC (link)
	He spoke to me through an intercom once. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	What did he say? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Katherine lucyfightsback 2017-07-09 10:11 pm UTC (link)
	He had three of us captive. He said he would only let us leave when one of us was dead. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Oh my god, Lucy, that is terrible. What happened? Could you free yourself? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Katherine lucyfightsback 2017-07-11 09:10 pm UTC (link)
	We refused to fight each other and the door opened when the first died of thirst. The second died while we were walking back to the city. A search party found me after that. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Lucy daddyissues_ 2017-07-11 09:19 pm UTC (link)
	That is terrible. How old were you back then? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Katherine lucyfightsback 2017-07-11 09:29 pm UTC (link)
	Twelve. Old enough to remember all of it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Lucy daddyissues_ 2017-07-11 09:31 pm UTC (link)
	I cannot imagine what that must be like. I am so sorry, Lucy. I am so sorry that you had to go through this and that we could not protect you from it. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Katherine lucyfightsback 2017-07-11 09:36 pm UTC (link)
	I'm sorry about what my being born did to you. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Lucy daddyissues_ 2017-07-11 09:41 pm UTC (link)
	That's hardly your fault. I always suspected that a pregnancy might mean trouble for me. I was not even sure if I could have a child. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Katherine lucyfightsback 2017-07-11 09:44 pm UTC (link)
	And now you know. You should't. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Lucy daddyissues_ 2017-07-11 09:55 pm UTC (link)
	At least for now I will abstain from having children. Maybe if I grow stronger, I will be able to have them. But that is still quite awhile away. And now we have you. That sounds wrong. It's not like you are a child. (Reply to this) (Parent)
