Oh? If that's you selfish, what is you being greedy?

[He looks... amused.]

Lord Beowulf, I'm being serious! This isn't easy for me to talk about...

[beewulf]

And so am I. What are you like greedy, wrothful, avaricious? I've yet to see such things within you..

Young Gareth, while your desire is selfish on the surface, it is not inherently born from selfishness.

[beaumains]

I'm... not certain I understand what you mean.

[beewulf]

The dragon was selfish, Grendel was selfish, more than one noble is selfish.

You wish to be with the person you care the most for. Not one of them wished for that. Your desire is not one borne out of self service. Greed, or anger. Simply wishing to be with someone is not selfish.

[beaumains]

But... it is self service. I do not wish her here for her own sake, but for my own. How is that not?

[beewulf]

On the surface it is, but ultimately it is not. It's a yearning, a need, you love this person but can't see them. That's not selfish. For you to be selfish then it would have to be truly selfish and serve only yourself.

Would you say this other wouldn't feel the same if they were here?

[beaumains]

I... suppose I cannot speak for her, truly, but... You may be right, my lord.
