"Teren don't want us betraying him. He wants our loyalty. He wants to use us so he wouldn't use death as the punishment. He set up all this to instill fear into us, not to question him, and to 'wholeheartedly' sign it. He's trying to trick us that it's our choice and that this is what we want."

"I'm not one hundred percent sure but that might be the case... because once we sign it, we will lose hope. We will no longer think of betraying him. He's trying to confuse us with this."
