ReplyDeleteYeah, there's a kind of grim schadenfreude to that. He suffers, seeks redemption and still gets his comeuppance. Nature knows what she's doing.
ReplyDeleteThis is the story of a hideous monster who fount themselves unjustly imprisoned. Eventualy after solving a series of riddles they lost everything they held dear.
