( Maybe it would be different if he had only honest intentions, but Wen Kexing had been aware of the violence in the Valley and had hoped to use it. He cannot be absolved. )
My parents died because of greed, the Ghost Valley only dealt the final blow. I wanted all those righteous, upstanding sects to be afraid, I wanted them to look at the monsters they'd hidden and know they were still there in the shadows. Those men that prospered while my father was broken, and my mother slain, I wanted to wash the world in their blood. I still do.
( Then, with a crack in his voice. ) And I hate it. Because now I want to be human, I want it so badly that I think it might kill me, some days. I don't know how to be. I've only ever been good for pain.
