The temple where a bunch of stupid people wanted to keep you locked up for the rest of your life because the emperor called people like you abominations, waved swords at anyone who so much as wanted to take you for a walk, chased after you and your friends, killed you horribly, cursed you for a couple thousand years, hunted people down who touched the feathers you moulted, and made everybody think you were just some sort of legend? You call leaving that hole in the ground a mistake? You'd have been miserable for the rest of your life and died without ever being able to do what you wanted!
