云遮星月情未暗

If you want revenge, you can take my life right now. Do it.

Remember that dream I told you about? At the very end, someone killed Xiao Xun for me. Do you know who it was? It was you. You killed him and avenged my family. But this time, I have to do it myself. Though fear may still echo in my chest, and a crumbling cliff awaits my next step, nothing in this world will hold me back. Whatever you fear in the days to come, whatever that dream may be, real or not, face it, grasp it, and conquer it. The fear will leave you.

"‘But I do not know the counsel of the Lord and his captains. They have many ways of gathering news. And the Lord Denethor is unlike other men: he sees far. Some say that as he sits alone in his high chamber in the Tower at night, and bends his thought this way and that, he can read somewhat of the future; and that he will at times search even the mind of the Enemy, wrestling with him. And so it is that he is old, worn before his time.'" - J.R.R. Tolkien, The Return of the King, "Minas Tirith" "Denethor looked indeed much more like a great wizard than Gandalf did, more kingly, beautiful, and powerful; and older." - J.R.R. Tolkien, The Return of the King, "Minas Tirith"
