I think...in part, that was my purpose. To make me think I was something that I wasn't, just to see how much I'd suffer when I learned that everything I thought I knew was just a lie.
[At least, with time to think about it, that's one of the explanations he keeps coming back to.]
[... That's too cruel. Connor doesn't have the right words to express it, or even the proper understanding of his own fledging emotions to wrap his mind around it, but. The idea of it doesn't feel... right. He wants it to, but it doesn't.]

It happened...when I just felt so hurt and betrayed. When all I had in me, very suddenly, was this thought that I'd been wronged, and how it wasn't fair.
[Justice is quiet for a moment after that.]
Aside from that...no, I don't know. It was just like...I was in a dream, but that old place that I came from was the dream, even though I know that it hadn't been. It's...hard to describe, and it might be different for each of us.

"Here." [...] You ended up in the Temple?
IT REALLY IS THO

[Is that related? It's a mystery.]
If I may ask... Do you know how it was for the others? Or is that something I should ask them myself?
no subject
Only a couple of them have told me, so you'd be better off asking them directly. It might be different for everyone.
