As so many people ask questions, advertise, or whatever on this thing I figure I have nothing to lose doing the same.

You see I have a particular problem. A pest problem. I'm looking for creative ways to rid myself of this little bug that seems super intent on sticking around. Normally I wouldn't bother with something like this but my usual methods of getting rid of unwanted things?

Well. It's not working.

Which implies you are not human, of course.

Do you define humans strictly by their mortality?

I wouldn't. But there are plenty out there that would, stating that it's unnatural.

An unnatural human is still human.

Depends upon what the source of the "unnatural" part is.

The World itself 'granted' me immortality, making me a pseudo-divine spirit after killing one too many of its gods.

Hold up. Immortality was your "reward?" For killing gods?
Or is your use of "granted" closer to sarcasm?

Have you known many to speak of such things with fondness?

Aye, it was meant with irony.

I know one man that would think of it as a blessing rather than a curse.
He'd probably be thrilled at the idea he could continue on forever.

Mortal folk, particularly men, do tend to have that sort of foolishness in their mind, yes.

And what would you do if you could reverse this "gift" that's been given to you?

To die a proper warrior's death.

Rather, what would you be willing to do to make that a reality?

The power to make such a reality does not exist within this world.

It barely exists within my own.

Not really the question I asked, but suit yourself.

I understand, but I've lived too long to indulge hypothetical situations.

That's fair.

[ He can understand and, on some level, relate to that at least. ]
