"If I was anyone else...you might have a point" Nathan began. "When I was just 8 years old, I was forced to watch as a group of thugs slaughtered by parents. Normally, a bunch of bandits wouldn't have been able to so much as scratch them...but they had filled the air with some kind of poisonous smoke. I was small enough to stay under it...but my parents weren't. They were cut down like animals right in front of me. I managed to escape undetected...but I had nowhere else to go. You see, my family didn't live in any kind of settlement, it wouldn't be inaccurate to call us hermits. So that meant that I literally didn't know anyone else in the world. I was all alone." By this point, he had begun walking towards Reala "living was so painful, but one thing still kept me alive; revenge. To this day, I still remember the faces of each and everyone of my parents killers, and I was determined to kill them for what they did. Three years later...I found them and killed every last one of them...and you know what; I regret it. Sure I managed to avenge my parents, but the cost was far too high. In my rage, I ended up destroying most of the village where I found them, and who knows how many innocent lives. My the time my blood-lust had vanished, I was surrounded by the burning remains of the village. So I ran away, too horrified to face what I did. To this day, I'm still not sure if anyone even survived. So yes, I [i]do[/i] understand you, far more then you realize. Which is why when I say that revenge isn't worth it, [b]I know what I'm talking about![/b]" Nathan clenched his fists "and what's this about me not being able to control my powers? Who told you that lie? Because I [i]can[/i] control my powers perfectly fine. Your aunt isn't helping me at all by doing this. Hell, what she's really done is cripple me! She's leashed me like some animal! I wouldn't be surprised if there was something in this seal to inflict massive amounts of pain on me if I ever [i]misbehaved[/i]. Your aunt isn't holding my hand, she's holding my neck...really tightly. Which I why I don't trust that woman at all. In fact...I'm wondering if you already knew all of this. Someone had to tell you about this seal, why not the person who put it on me? You probably also know how to trigger it's [i]behavioral correction[/i] function too, don't you?"
