    Summary

    To be human is to want. Wanting food so badly that you’ve gone past hunger and into delirium. Wanting to sleep, but being too cold to, because Dario’s drunk away the firewood money again. Wanting a shred of safety, a taste of compassion, a brief example of what it might be like to live a life free from pain and fear and longing. Humanity, in Dio’s eyes, has nothing in particular to recommend it.

    In which Dio struggles with the stress of humanity and makes a fateful decision.
