Some people when they have taken too much and have been driven beyond the point of endurance, simply crumble and give up.

There are those who give with joy, and that joy is their reward. And there are those who give with pain, and that pain is their baptism.

If you... face him directly, he will give you a special ointment so your wounds don't fester.
