"...why should Taric show his fellow man kindness? well, he came to Targon a broken man, intent on climbing the mountain to atone for his sins... and he succeeded. nobody knows better that all broken things can be made beautiful again."

"inside of the ocean, / I am pushed to the brink, where I realize / that death is not what I want and divorce isn’t / either."

@jarlightfeather (Of course, he expected this exact reaction. Taric laughs. It's a genuine, sonorous tone, that dances in the air like the beat of a dragonfly's wings.)
That simply means it shall come to pass, then. Life has a way of bringing us precisely where we do not want to be!
@jarlightfeather Splendid. It does, indeed.
(Taric's thumb presses ever so subtly against Jarro's jugular. It remains long enough to gauge his heartbeat before withdrawing entirely. It is implied in equal parts as a threat AND a kindness.)
I pray our paths cross once more. Truly, I do.
