@Psychronia I mean it could be, but I thought she was thinking that now. Like imagining that's what he was trying to say or wanted. To be put out of his misery/killed before he would be forced to be a slave. And after the murder of his whole clan.
@Psychronia: That one? KKJ version is probably more 'correct' on it, in that the slave was asking for her to kill him, because he'd rather die than becoming a merchandise to someone who killed his people.
