Lightning Rod (before battle)

... You're going to fight us? In your state?

If you seek to disturb this experiment... then it falls to me to stop you.

What are you even looking to gain from this? By going this far?

The same thing as always. I love Catherine, so I shall do as she wills me to.

So that I may enter her room. I dare not wish to become a master of it; I merely wish that she would let me in...

I wish that the sight of an opened door, that little gesture, would be more than enough.

The thunder of every lightning that struck the manor...

... was the sound of her breaking heart.

…!

With every heartbreak, the lightning strikes. The pain, the bereavement, the shock... are all manifest as lightning, then darkness...

Thus, the lightning only indicates that the person in question was so important to her...

<Heathcliff, I think...>

<Nelly was right.>

<Catherine's still alive...>

It wasn't exact science or anything like that, but...

... I've been feeling that gaze, coming from somewhere within the manor.

Not an aggressive gaze, no. But it was certainly stubborn and lingering.
