With respect to the latter, don't change a thing Phin because it seems to be working for you.
As for my ego, it's just a figment of my imagination, as is yours to you.

Of course, if his hands were bound, then someone else was in the room with him, no?
Makes sense that people are wondering if it was truly foul play.

Yeah, that was a poor choice of words on my part...I'll change that to the way he left the world.
