"Whoever takes a human life shall surely be put to death." - Leviticus 24:17

If he would be a killer, then he would do it quickly. He would spare his faltering humanity the pain of reconciliation. He would be what was needed. He would be more than a bullet, he would be more than a simple blade. He would be a cleaver. Blunt and rusted, he would grind them to dust between his embittered jaws and flay them between his fingers. He would do it quickly. But it wouldn't be clean. He would do to them what was earned. He would make them pay... 

And when it was over and the blood was all but letted. When heads laid free from twitching bodies and none could raise a finger against him, he would devour their pieces, leaving barely a scrap for the wild dogs and crows to pick at. 

He would be their judgement. 

He would be the hand of Gød.
