If he turned his back on humanity now, it would be forever.

The thing about real life is, when you do something stupid, it normally costs you.

But I also slaughtered you real mother and father. In a moment of mad rage, I took their lives and left you an orphan. If you choose to take my life as a payment for theirs, you will be within your rights and no vampire will hold it against you. Pass judgment on me, Gavner Purl, and let your hand rise or fall as destiny decides it must." -Larten Crepsley

I don't think anyone ever remembers what they were really like as kids. Adults think they do, but they don't. Photos and videos don't capture the real you, or bring back to life the person you used to be. You have to return to the past to do that.

A little knowledge is a dangerous thing." - Harkat Mulds (Hunters of the Dusk)

Of course I have nightmares-Who doesn't?

It is good to be taught humility when we are young. If we do not exeperience pain as children, we will cause pain as adults.
