Hillock is too cute

I just wanted to check if I was the only one who falls in love more and more with Hillock everytime I meet him in the betrayal league!

He's just soooo cute and innocent, I don't want to hurt him! He's just a big and confused giant!

One time, I got him in for interrogation, and he cried that he didn't what to be put in the dark again, and it broke my heart! When I meet him after that, I had the option to put him back in the box or kill him... WHERE THE HUG OPTION GGG?!?! WHERE IS IT?! WHY ARE YOU MAKING ME DO THIS TO THIS ANGEL?!... I told him to look at the flowers while I did what had to be done for his own sake!... I will never be the same

Hodor? Hodor, Hodor.

When there's an option to kill one, it's usually because there's another member of the syndicate that needs to be dealt with. Kill them instead of this giant, and he'll open up with the option of bargaining when no one's around to witness.

5: If you ever feel bad for killing Hillock every time you start a new character, for the love of god DONT. He was exiled for multiple counts of murder, multiple counts of rape, killing a child, (implied) necrophilia, and a host of minor crimes. If anyone deserves his fate, its Hillock.

Still want to hug him?

With an iron maiden.

And of course, the most epic:

"Ate myself. Ate the syndicate." (c) Hillock

Hillock is basically GGG's jab at millenials:
-He does not know how to do his job
-He hates his life and suffers from mild depression
-He is terrifed of the dark
-He just wants to leave it all and do something pleasant and low stress (blacksmithing)

Naw. Hillock is GGG's jab at boomers:
- He does not know how to do his job
- He angrily lashes out at everyone and anything
- At the same time, he wonders why no one wants to be his buddy
- Nostalgic for a time in the distant past that probably wasn't all that great in the first place
