Kurloz... [He goes on and on about this Lord of his and the hows and the whys of what happened to him. For all he talks of removing his influence, she's not quite sure that he realizes the hold that this Lord still has over him.
She runs her thumbs over his, feeling his skin against hers. It makes her aware of how much smaller than his her hands are, and yet, he feels so much more fragile than she does in this moment.]
You have removed one power, but as long as you still hold him on a pedestal, you haven't freed yourself yet. You're still tormenting yourself with what you think you did wrong to deserve this, but... Maybe you did nothing? Maybe he's just... not the person you thought he was. Maybe he doesn't care about you as a person, not the way that you deserve to be cared about.
[She knows that this won't be something that he wants to hear. It goes against everything she knows of his faith, and she doesn't find any pleasure in ruining that for him. But he was there to help her realize the harms that were done to her by those she trusted, and she needs to be there for him in turn.
She releases one hand, touching it to his cheek to make sure that she has his attention.]
Kurloz. You don't owe anything to someone who would hurt you like that.
