Summary
He is the chosen of Myrkul, the lich-king of Moonrise Towers, and a husband no more, and he feels no obligation toward softness. If he were a different man- a better man- the man he used to be- the tenderness surely inspired by the Bhaalspawn’s birdlike form and shattered-glass expression would touch his heart, but he has not been that man in many a year, and instead the frailties of this creature inspire him only to break it more.

Summary
“So I am special?”

That this violent, black-eyed, slavering hellbeast is the true third Chosen, not her hysteric sister, not old done Sarevok, not any other murder-mad acolyte of Bhaal. Her.
But he cannot say that, so instead he says, “did you ever doubt it?”Series
