The Watcher gazed into the distance as I just kind of stood there. "You... want me to destabilise Requiem to be able to kill The Elder?" The prospect seemed stupid to me. Just give me the power so I can go kill The Elder and then reform Requiem.
"I don't want you to, it is what you have to do. Getting the ability to kill a god needs several layers of protection... the first was finding me, Elias." Oh, come on. There is something else going on here. Though... I suppose it makes a certain amount of sense.
"So, I came out here to be told that I need to go back? That seems a little obnoxious." The Watcher just sort of... waved me off, stating that it is a shorter journey back than it was to his castle. How? I don't fucking know, the castle probably moves or something.
