I don't mind dying before you do. In fact, I rather prefer it that way.

I'm passing through the world invisibly. Even when people see or speak to me it's as if I didn't exist, as if I had no right to exist. I tread across their lands and they don't see me. I act and act and act and nothing makes any difference in the world. But they touch me.

Evil people naturally assume that you will use that power exactly as they would use it.
