Why would you save for your ambition ? You have always known exactly what I am and seen all my failings, all my weakness and scars. I flattered myself that all moments you had feelings for me other than contempt, but even were that true, they would make but a thin gruel beside the feast of your other, greater desires.

And my heart is busired with you in the strange soil of the mortal world, as it was drowned with you in the cold waters of the Undersea.

It was yours before I could admit it, and yours it shall ever remain.
