[Diarmuid shakes his head and doesn't move from his kneeling position. When he speaks, his voice trembles.]

I do! I have wronged you in ways that can never be forgiven. I lied to you. Repeatedly. I made you promises I knew I couldn't keep. Repeatedly. I encouraged your delusions. Repeatedly. And I did all this while I dared to call you my master!

[He looks up at Kariya, tears in his eyes.]

I have failed you so badly. I have no right to call myself a knight any longer. Please...you must punish me for my transgressions against you. Hate me. Despise me. Yell at me. Curse me. You may even kill me if you want.

[Diarmuid bows his head again.]

My life--as worthless as it may be--is yours. Do with it as you wish.
