Chương 167: Bad Apologies.

He thought to himself, "Maybe I should tell her that I am sorry."

He nodded as he thought, "Yes, I should start from there."

Then he said, "I don't trust you, Wrath. Maybe in time I will, but not now. For now, I am sorry for saying that I didn't need you. I should have said that I didn't need you much. I only need you a little. But that little might be the difference between life and death."

Then he coughed. It was because Wrath was looking at him now. He paused to gather himself. 

He thought to himself, "She is some ancient creature. I'm sure she won't make things difficult for me. She should be bigger than that."

He continued after having found his confidence. "So I might need you a little bit. I can admit that much. I will also appreciate any help that you can give me. In exchange, I will try to make it worth your while. If I can free you, I will."
