"You helped my son escape Babel. That's enough cause."

"He wouldn't do that."

Richard shifts uncomfortably. "He wants his family back."
"But Richard has a plan!" Edan snickers.

He holds up the lamp slightly. "I thought.. maybe I'd..."
Edan shakes his head. "My child has suicidal tendencies. I say we just storm the castle!"

His expression darkens. "If he does that I'll kill you and him."
---
"If someone let you have any wish you wanted, you'd forgive them, right?" He looks hopefully at Rufus.

"I'm finished with this. He will return my family tonight or suffer."

"We're way past talking."
