[ Astarion listens as Xenk talks, but it ends in a bitter victory. He'd gotten Xenk to admit to the truth (that it would have been right to kill him), but it didn't make it any easier to hear. And that's before even thinking about all of the conversation that happened in the middle, with Xenk insisting that he is trying to be good. That he can be good, without being like Xenk.
It's all exhausting. He should know better than to bring up something like this, when Xenk is so willing to say so much. He can't just make him upset or shake him with his words.
But there's something in particular that really hits him. Your past need not be free of sin for your freedom to be deserved. Was that what he thought? Was Xenk right?
Is this what it's like to feel seen? ]
Don't come complaining to me, when your faith is misplaced.
