She was the trickiest. [He explains simply, before taking a drink.]
She was mediocre. She wasn't exceptionally beautiful, she couldn't grasp the concept that people in other nations might live in poverty, she was an average lawyer. She was flawed. And I loved all of her flaws. Every last one of them, and would have gladly spent every night of my life with her.
But things went wrong... The Taelons put me under their control and- it's complicated, and I finally returned to my senses just to try and save her, have her torn away, and then told she was dead. I tried to get revenge for her.
One day I found myself in front of a tribunal with her telling me that I'd never loved her and that I was a monster. And the times that I was ready to give my life for her didn't happen. She was going to have me put to death for crimes that I did for her. That's what happened with my wife. [And all Narvin had to do was mention her to set him off.]
