cort believes himself to be truly righteous. having fallen long ago, he now believes fully that he committed no sin, and that his placement on the earth must to be to some other design. (the blood on his hands, after all, was necessary.) he dislikes his forced masquerade and spends much of his existence seeking war, believing perhaps if he proves himself useful he can regain his place. he rarely has to search for babes; having been around long enough, there was once a small cult devoted to him that willingly sacrificed their firstborn to him, but it has dwindled and died after most were killed in the second world war. he only speaks what he believes to be the truth, but his truth is twisted in bitter delusion and a growing thirst for violence and revenge.
