Of course there are worse fates ( He has doled them out when necessary ) but that is no reason to simply accept your own.
( A pause at the outstretched hand. ) My House dagger is hardly neutral.
( It was forged in Hell itself on the same day his House came into creation. His serpent winds around its hilt, and it has a large amount of magic, making it one of the few daggers that has any true effect over Wrath within his own realm. He is not going to hand it over to Lan Wangji or anyone else.
Thankfully, he does have another (he does love his weapons), which he pulls from elsewhere to hand over to Lan Wangji. He'll pull his own dagger out in case there is reason to use it - though he has magic as well for that, shadows gather beneath his feet even now. )
