[ An insane offer, from an insane creature beyond the comprehension of mere mortals like Angelo. Unlike Frontal, whom he understood perfectly (he did, didn't he? he wants to think so), Hwylryn is an alien being to him. ]

... Sariel offered the same thing to me and you killed him.

[ Said dryly. He wouldn't have taken Sariel up on it either, because he felt like that would make him the same as one of his ants, just a pet to be watched over. (He knows that's uncharitable. He knows Sariel is better than that. But that's what stings.) ]

I don't know where I'm going after all is said and done, but I can't become your pet either. You have no place for me, beyond your sympathy.
