[ It certainly isn't a pleasant place to be- the one being sacrificed. Having to see how quickly a life can be discarded. Quirin was a respect man, a leader of the village, an old friend of the King. And he was just left to die. And Varian couldn't understand why. Not then.]
I knew I'd have to force Rapunzel into helping me if I had any chance. So I... I used this serum I'd created on Ruddiger to turn him huge and set him on the capital. With the guards busy dealing with him, I broke into the castle and I kidnapped the queen. I figured if she wouldn't do anything to save my parent, maybe she'd do something to save hers. I set a bunch of automatons outside my home to keep any remaining guards who came with her busy.
[The disgust in his voice is clear. He's learned to deal with a lot of his self-loathing, he's learned to understand what drove him to do what he did. They were reasons, not excuses. But they didn't make him beyond worth as a person, either- that was something that took him a long, long time to learn. But he still feels guilt for it. He did something wrong and he can't bypass it.
She came for her and I used the amber potion next to the queen to hurry Rapunzel along. Either she saved my dad or her mom would share his fate. It was... awful. I was awful. But she agreed, and her hair still didn't do it. She- that was my last hope to save him and knowing I'd done all that for- for nothing? Something snapped in me.
[He still remembers the BLIND rage he went into. He just wanted the world to burn at that point. Everything and everyone had either been taken from him or turned away from him and he was left with nothing.]
I piloted a giant robot, I grabbed her mom and her best friend and started to crush them to death. I was angry out of control and I just wanted to make her hurt.
