There is a whole world, here, beneath Niles' words--a whole world that is well beyond Myr's experience, sheltered child of the Circle that he is. He does not doubt its grim reality; only, his grasp on it is fleeting, his understanding of it so poor he is liable to do more harm than good if he were to speak on it. That uneasy knowledge makes him want to turn away--
But he remembers L's analogy to Mello's suffering, sacrificed god and that pleading feeling through their Bond: Don't take this from me because I cannot live otherwise.
His tone is bleak:] It is a lie that will lead him back there, or worse.
