What Have I Done?

What have I done?
Sweet Jesus, what have I done?
Become a thief in the night,
Become a dog on the run
And have I fallen so far,
And is the hour so late
That nothing remains but the cry of my hate,
The cries in the dark that nobody hears,
Here where I stand at the turning of the years?

Another Les Miserables inspired piece by your's truly.

The subject of Zelgadis's parents being murdered by Rezo has been a hard one for me to conjure up in illustration. Not only is it terribly depressing, but it's so hard to even imagine. A kind soul like Rezo murdering innocent people? Then you must remember this is Shabranigdo's doing.

So to help expose the more Rezo side of the catastrophe, I went for aid from Les Miserables, the most depressing musical by far (and a favorite of mine lol). I stumbled across the lyrics, originally sung by Valjean, and said, "Now I've got my ultimatum. Let's get to work."

I do hope I get my point across.
