But the fact that some of those things... they make you outright want to hurt people. They get into your head... Netzach, that place is a shitshow... [ not said in a way that implies he doesn't know, ratherβjust astonished, and tired... really tired. ]
That's just-- how things were there. What you saw... it doesn't sound like it's out of the ordinary, for what I know, except for the fact that you remembered going through all of it.
...yeah. That's... more or less why I was like that, back then. You stay there long enough and it just feels hopeless, you know? There was no point in trying to save anyone. If they are saved, they're just going to die later, and at some point you're going to do it all over again.
It's easy to get worn down and start thinking that way.

I can definitely see why you wouldn't want to remember dying to... any of that.
[ the hairs on his good arm do be prickling. eugh. goosebumps. ]
