It's all so pointless, can't he see? Everything he did, everything he wanted to be, the kingdom, his marriage, his best friend, it's gone! All because he spent those years with his head up his ass pretending it was all okay!
And you know what?! He's going to die down here anyway! Might as well just get it over with!
He howls with broken laughter as the room grows colder, watches his breath puff up in tiny, blurry clouds, relishes every crack of ice as it spreads over the stone, into the cracks, into the very heart of the manor.
