huh... I wonder what he's actually doing. Is he actually easing his pain, or is he killing him? If he's telling the truth, then that changes everything that was mentioned before about him. Could he really be a good guy who just thinks that killing the Plavaans is the right thing? Sorta like a pre-epiphany Lloyd?

Or maybe he could even be controlling the king so that he can take over the world. Who knows.
