Elijah shook his head and looked at his beautiful face as he spoke. "You have no reason to say you're sorry, Father. I am the one who is sorry, for bringing this upon you. I have prayed that I did not feel anything but compassion for my fellow man, like you. But I feel I am always being tested and I fail him in new ways without outright taking these things into action. I wonder how far it will go before I doom myself if I am not already."
