He said that there was this - shadow, I guess, that approached him at the start of the week, offering to help him protect his hostage. Even when he said no, it - possessed him somehow, I guess. He said that when he killed Flayn, it felt completely normal and natural, so he was being influenced to the point that he didn't know there was even an influence to fight off.
It must have been right after the verdict was read. I didn't ask him directly, but... You saw the way he seemed to get less angry all of a sudden, right?
The Shadows. We don't know if they would've stayed in him if he hadn't gotten caught. Might be they'd have made him keep killing, might be that they'd have vanished. We won't know unless they go again.
Well... No, but when I say I should have asked him, I was specifically talking about asking him if there was a reason why he chose her, or if it was just because she happened to be awake, too.

...Luckily, he's not the kind of person who'd give up.

... So he was possessed by a shadow. Did he know why it picked Flayn?
no subject
No. If there was a reason, he didn't say it... Just that it felt natural and normal for him to attack her.
