If you can bring yourself to accept my assurance, I have no interest in attacking neither the Warrior nor their allies. They have shown me no ill will, and I have no reason not to maintain our current friendly ties.
I extend the same to you, Crystal Exarch. My future reasons are hardly relevant here, and harming you would aggravate those heroes to no good cause.
[Not that he expects the Exarch to go 'oh okay' and forget all that torturing business, but. He figured there was no harm in being clear about his intent.
The last part has him pause, trying to work out what the Exarch meant. Though there were a limited amount of options, and Emet-Selch could guess at a plausible scenario.
That explained what the Exarch had been doing in Kholusia to begin with, rather than lurking in his stolen Tower as normal. Assisting the Warrior with the Light after the hero failed to contain it- yes, that would be a reason for him to be there (though the Ascian was unsure how that would simply kill him, instead of just turning him into his own Lightwarden). And it was a reason for his future self to stop him, stealing the Exarch away while he was vulnerable.

Something like that, anyway.]
So eager to martyr yourself for them...?
