Jarlaxle's internal mindset at Zak's death

From Your Tongue by Maggie Smith: Where is your voice now / that you have moved, you have migrated?

Legend of Drizzt, Drabble, Jarlaxle, referenced major character death

You never would take my offer. You left yourself lingering in that misery of your conscience and honor. For what? A daughter that helped kill you and a son that fled into the wilds?

Damn you, Zaknafein for putting me in that position. I had to, you see. Your own concept of who deserved to live would have gone just the way it played out. Only… I can't reach you. That part of my brilliant plan failed — so far. Steal you away, remake you at my side, and wait for your son's chaos to strike.

He'll be your eternal vengeance.
