HOW CAN THIS POSSIBLY BE TRUE!? HOW CAN I BE ANYTHING BUT THE IDENTITY I SO LONG CRAVED FOR MYSELF? HOW CAN I ACHIEVE THAT AND END UP BEING A CARBON COPY OF SOMEONE WHO ALREADY EXISTS? I AM NOT A USELESS FANTASY FROM A MERE CHILD'S IMAGINATION! I AM ASRIEL DREEMURR: THE ABSOLUTE GOD OF HYPERDEATH! I'M INVINCIBLE! I'M UNIQUE! I'M STRONGER THAN EVERYBODY! THERE IS NOBODY--NOBODY--WHO EVEN DARES TO BE REMOTELY LIKE ME! AND YOU'RE SAYING I'M A TOY? THAT MY MEMORIES AND MY PAST ARE WORTH NOTHING!? THAT EVERYTHING I'VE FOUGHT FOR IS A WASTE BECAUSE I WAS NEVER REAL IN THE FIRST PLACE? THERE IS ONLY ONE ASRIEL IN THIS WORLD AND IT'S ME!
