Oppressive Corrosion and Indomitable Karma

Elijah's suicide came as a surprise to both Daniel and Corrosion. Both were painfully aware of the resilient nature of Destiny's champions, and to see one so broken in spirit and mind, Corrosion could not help but be taken aback. Even Daniel, the aspect of Karma himself, was left astonished. 

It suddenly became clear to him that the punishment of negative karma was much heavier than he had imagined.

"And here I thought he was your guide.. Turns out he was your prisoner." The aspect of Corrosion realized. His voice crackled in Daniel's ears, sizzling like rendering fat which tasted of mockery. "Not that he would have been of use to  you any longer, but rejoice, at least you will perish in company."
