Well, I suppose. But that doesn't mean I can just relax. That creature was based on what I would do in the future. So I...can't allow myself to believe that I'll stay like this forever.

[A pause.]
But I've already made up my mind. I will do my best to avoid that fate. But if I slip, if evil clutches at my heart again...I wouldn't even hesitate to let people strike me down.
