"... It was only a bed, Tiamaris. A bed that can be replaced. An object with no feelings, not a person. You have harmed no one. And furthermore, there is value in that strength in what it can do to help people. In that power is not just the capacity to destroy or to intimidate... but to nurture and to protect. That is why you are here. Remember, please...
Despair is a convenient darkness to lie in. I know it well. I have teetered by that edge of wishing for death... But there is still use for me yet. There is use for me in you, a hand to grasp in that darkness. And within you that same will to live exists. I know it."
