This is not a warning I should have to give, but if it prevents even one person from making the oft-repeated mistake of trusting the world-traitor, it will be worth the giving.

Do not let him wheedle his way free of this last and greatest travesty. There are no excuses for what he has done, nor what he seeks to do. There is no depth of ignorance, no profundity of idiocy or extent of emotional turmoil that permits the possibility of atonement for the betrayer of the world entire.

He strives to break the world you and all that you hold dear live within; You should not need to know anything further to spurn him utterly and eternally, but he has proven to have a bizarre power to sway others, so I will belabour the point for you all.

This is his pattern. He worms his way into good graces with lies, with lavishings of gruff good will, often aimed towards the isolated, the impressionable, or those otherwise easily swayed. He kills well and often, and people lavish him with approval for it. Then a matter will arise that causes him to brood and rail and scream at the sky - you will have heard him. He is not dignified in his upset. He will throw a tantrum, rage, strive to stir up sympathetic support to band with him. He will sow dissent, lash out at anyone and anything that does not loudly endorse whatever his latest obsession is. He will throw himself at a wall over, and over, and over, and grow louder with each attempt.

Then, when the disapproval of others reaches a threshold, he will pivot towards being maudlin. He will play the victim, brood, mope, and bitterly seethe about how he is the lone good soul in all the world, and everyone else who does not wholeheartedly agree with him is a black-hearted villain, or other such drivel. He will make himself pitiable, pathetic, and strive to prevail upon sympathy, compassion, on the forgiving nature and emotional weariness of others. He will make his false apologies, play the penitent. He will mention, loudly and often, that he has a daughter, that he is a father, that he had a mother, and other blatant efforts to draw attention away from his myriad transgression.

Generally, he will be given another chance. He will be forgiven, or his transgression will be overlooked or tolerated because of supposed extenuating circumstance. Then he will worm his way into good graces, and the cycle begins anew.

How many times must someone show they cannot be trusted before you all realise that he is unworthy of it, unworthy of you? He has hurt many of you before. He has disappointed more. He is a traitor, many times over. His word is wrought of delusion. His apologies are worthless. His promises are empty.

Forgive him, and prove yourself the worst of fools.
Ignore him. Let him wither without the attention he so desperately needs. It is all that he deserves.
