Mister Shanks ... I don't want to hurt you, if you come near. Maybe you should stay at a distance.

I was scared to be alone, that's all. But I think I am a monster now, like all the dreams said I would be — they call me "Destroyer." I would not like to destroy you, Mister Shanks, so maybe you should not come.
