“I’m a butcher,” he says passionately. “A brawler. A fool sometimes, then and now. When I love, I love wholly and simply. And I’ve set my love on you. No matter what you do, what you choose, I’m yours. Your warrior, your guardian, your ghost. I’ll be the voice that tells you the truth when you fucking hate it, and I’ll think of you until my very soul is devoured by the Void. You can’t stop my love, Lauriel. You can’t stop me from having faith, and I believe in you more deeply than I’ve believed in anyone, even myself.”
