He said you had promised me to him. What did you say?
I don't know, I... like I said, I volunteered, I offered to help him, and he said he needed to find out how skilled I was...

God... he gave me every chance to back down. He damn near told me to! Damn it... I didn't know what he was going to do, I knew it sounded like a threat, but I didn't think... I hoped he wouldn't...
... how could I back down? I'd already offered myself up. How could I...?
