the "dead guys" are all of us, contrary to what OP is saying, he's just pissy he went away and came back it was all changed

he hates the monk and the monkey for what they done to "his religion" or some shit, this dude drags a lot of baggage and is just generally bitchy, or acts like it, anyways

the line itself comes from a passage from warhammer that's been turned into crackypasta a long time ago

>All of creation suffers, young one. Only in accepting our own mortality can we make a difference. Only in bearing the burden of our failures can we find the strength to go on. Only in detachment from glory, or honor, or jealousy... from life itself can we hope to spare others from grief.

>We are the faithful. And we are dead already
