Do you blame them for your own departure? [/quote] [i][b]Yes[/b][/i]. I do. They ravaged through everything my father held dear. And Ben... and Akella... But this wouldn't have been the first time they did this.

Some times they even managed to tear through whole heavens even in their incessant pursuit of senseless consumption.
