Man. When some shit talk from some trash is enough to drive you to the edge of demonization it shows how pathetic his mental strength is.
Like, bitch, will you almost turn into a demon everytime someone speaks trash to you? Is the frigging love of your family and friends, heck even a kingdom, so thin that it can't be enough to be able to ignore one trash?
Or is it all just a way for the writer to create artificial tension? Yeah...i think it is this one.
