And even if you were, it sounds like you were pretty useless to the world at large.

Mark Valdis onto a list of people to avoid. Which, right now, was basically just Valdis and all the ghosts. Zelos did his best, as he turned to leave, to put the whole conversation right out of his mind, but parts of it had hit far too close to home -- he couldn't just forget about all of it. And without someone to perform to, summoning a smile after leaving the bar seemed nigh on impossible.
