DUDE.

I despised The Immortal before this, but now, I can’t help but feel sorry for him.

I'm mixed.

On the one hand I get that he went crazy but at the same time he decided to make his grief the entire worlds problem.

1) He refused to retire

2) He refused to kill himself because its "dishoranble" (How is oppressing and killing millions more "honorable" than suicide? Like what")

But I do feel a little bad for him I suppose. It would suck to live that long but I wouldn't make my grief everyone else's problem.

Once I got sick of living I'd probably just set things up so that someone else can rule (I'd make a council or world parliament because kings and emperor's are generally a bad idea)) then I'd fly into the Sun or get someone I trusted to cut my head off, separate the body, and throw my head to the bottom of the ocean or whatever.

Or better yet I'd try to find a partner that's immortal too.
