Sometimes forgetting is better than forgiving

"Thank you. But what now? You won't hunt down the king would you?" I was kind of skeptical about all that was happening but something about him didn't make me want to keep my guard up. I couldn't help but sympathize with him.

Was it because he was like me, or was it because I was going mad? Honestly, I didn't know.

"Wouldn't that be like giving him what he wants?"

I giggled. "I guess you're right. But if you want to pass on maybe I could help. I have sword capable-"

"You know the idea of living forever sounded nice to me too back in the day. I was surrounded by women, had adventures, got drunk, and got laid." He giggled.  "Life was fun. But then reality struck. Life is fun because it's short." He walked around. "After living for this long I don't really feel like doing anything. Even revenge seems… pointless. Besides, I've already had my revenge. Just imagining that thing's face makes me laugh."
