Did you sleep at all?
[takes a bloody towel and wipes his bleeding nose] I'm fine.
The guards still outside?
[nods] Pam, whatever the Authority decides, I will not allow you to take any responsibility.
You didn't kill the Magister.
But politically I'm a much cleaner scapegoat. Who's easier to pin it on: a sheriff in your custody or a king that might be anywhere? If they search Russell's palace they'll find the remains of his lover.
What did he do to you?
Nothing. But he was the nearest thing to Russell Edgington's heart. He had to die.
A hundred years I've been with you. Why did you never say anything about Russell or your family?
You didn't need to know. What good would it do to share my pain with you?
You didn't need to carry it all by yourself.
I am not weak. I was a sole survivor. The burden's mine alone.
We've lived through so much for so long. It can't end this quickly...
Everything ends. Even the immortal.... If I can't go on, you must make a new vampire. It is your time to be a Maker.
[Pam breaks down into tears and kneels before Eric, crying into his chest]
