[The thought of having no limitations is an appealing one. It's something Dorian has embraced (within human terms) ever since becoming immortal and then escaping scrape after successive scrape remarkably unscathed. But to reach the level of limitlessness that brings one in line with something divine?
No, even he has never considered that possibility.]
