Everyone dies... life is 100% fatal at some point. Does it do me any good to know if I die tomorrow or 20 years from now?
If I know that I'm doomed if I leave... how can I ever really be at ease here? The threat of leaving would hang over me every second of the day. How could I not come to depend on this place if it's keeping me from an awful fate?
Either way I'm a slave to the Castle... I don't want that.
[Of course he knows that he doesn't die if he leaves here. He's already dead and how do you kill a ghost? But he's gotten a glimpse of what the knowledge has done to others.]
