[A fire burns with the knowledge it will one day run out of kindling. That is Grimm's fate as the God of Nightmares and thus he is saddened and hurt when one's life is cut down before their time. The Vessel was strong to live on their own for as long as they did with the Radiance's force knocking on the door for reasons they cannot help. The Dreamers bore down upon them again for reasons beyond the child's control.

They all have their reasons but that does not mean Grimm cannot wish that wasn't the case.

Gently he pats the top of his head, sighing.]

I am fine. The Dreamers will not harm me. [If the voice was anything to go by, it would end...poorly if they tried.] I just believe they should have asked you those questions in a politer manner.
