As Abryon yelled at the princess, Yuu stood there, making sure nothing else happened. Her king got what he needed to say out, and sat down soon after. His hands hooked around her body, and she just fell into the chair with a plop. Her heart could feel the wrath of Xenon as he walked over. The disrespect was there, mainly because of what Abryon had said. She understood, this wedding was special, and of course, if it was hers, she would be mad as well. As Lacie was dismissed and sent back to her seat, Yuu took the bottle of wine from her table and sat back down next her her king, sipping away at the wine as the bride-to-be answered Abryon’s words of “concern”. To be honest, it even surprised her that the bride was not as mad as Yuu had anticipated. The wedding ceremony continued as before, the chandelier that had dimmed before lit back up, the crystals shimmering brilliantly. You’d little device unfolded itself from her hair, her strands falling over her cheek as it scanned her body.
“ Alcohol Content: Low.”
It chirped, and then pushed her hair back, folded into a small hairpin, and went back to standby. The female sat there, waiters coming around to serve the meals to at least lower the tension. Her eyes lit up once they saw a glance of the fat piece of meat on top of the plate. If anything, she loved red meats in any kind of style or cuisine. The priest then began to resay the vows, asking once more if anyone rejected their marriage. Of course, Yuu was only there for one thing, but she let slip exactly what that was,
” No… I’m only here for the food.”
She murmured, her fork sinking into the meat as the wedding continued.
Out. Of. Cookies.

「XENON ✧ MIRAI 」
★ Zaibatsu ④th RulerXXX ★ Esoteric Elemental Manipulation - Energy Manipulation - ESPXXX ★ Stamina Pool ❖ 300/300 SP
❉xxThe gentle warmth of a kiss softly laid rest on the King's cheek. The warmth provided a smooth calming feeling alongside its very touch. Sending an army of relaxing waves throughout the body resonating as messages from the brain brought Xenon to cool down from such inner rage that had boiled within him. Though shocked yes, but was too caught up with the matters that had transpired for him to even react to Lafolia's response to Abryon. She had then leaned forward to his hear after the planting of the soft kiss and softly whispered "Lion's don't concern themselves with the opinion of sheep." Xenon didn't yet very well couldn't mutter a word to rebuttal the woman. What she said pretty much silenced it all. Closing his eyes for only a matter of seconds before reopening them, bringing out a much calmer face in the process. Quite the satisfied smile he gave. Knowing the factor of being aware of what may transpired marrying into the family but not mattering at all to her was quite, comforting. The official glanced over to the King for confirmation after being told he could continue. With a soft chuckle, he turned to him with a, shrug of his own. "You heard the lady, you may continue as planned." One thing Xenon knew for sure growing up in this home, that all forms of chaos whether they be light or heavy will always find its way to make its welcome. The official finally finished his last statement with the power invested in him for Xenon to finally seal the deal and kiss his bride. Lifting his knuckle under her chin, tilting her head up enough for Xenon to slowly move in and caress his official wife through his lips only. Passionate, yet not too long as everyone had applaud and cheered on for the two. It finally happened. Lafolia had officially made her place as a full Mirai, and Xenon was nothing but pleased with this very moment.
❉xxAbout an hour and a half has passed on from being caught up with the entire fiasco. Everyone had been led into the ballroom for the wedding reception. Where nothing but joy and good times was presented. Light foods, dancing, music, the wedding cake and laughter engulfed the room as they let time pass on by. Xenon himself, got kinda threw with dancing for a bit since he had been on the dance floor for some time. Especially after the dancing with his daughter who was obviously better at it than him. Waltzing over to the nearest drinks and picked himself up a glass to recuperate and catch a breather.

Eli had given Xenon an hour and a half of joy while he waited for confirmation that his people were entirely out of Xenon's lands. Then, when the confirmation came, Eli made his way across the reception hall and to the groom himself. By now the party had truly begun. The ceremony was had ended and with it had gone the reason for anyone to remain sober. "Xenon, I have discovered something troubling. We need to talk. I'm sorry it had to be here." He was good at feigning emotions. He had plenty of time to practice. Time to erase his tells. Time to become unnoticed. He wore a false expression of concern and urgency. False, because he would be perfectly patient in his revenge if the betrayal was true. Beyond that he would also find a creative way to take his justice.

☪ xxxx Keeping to himself from what had transpired from Lacie to Lady Lafolia to Xenon and full circle. Derek believed there are things that need to be said but at proper timing of course. Surely this was not what he had in mind, but it turned out more on the positive end when the marriage actually concluded with Lady Lafolia truly becoming a Mirai and the reception had finally begun.
☪ xxxxFinally everyone reached to the point where people could truly let loose and just enjoy being around each other. The reception where music was busting, people were dancing, cups loaded with all kinds of drinks were being emptied. It seemingly was exactly a moment of pure peach. Leaning next to the wall closest to the dance floor, Derek simply observed the other attendees enjoying themselves. Even his own classmates were enjoying themselves. Lord Fourth and the new Queen were having quite the time as well, maybe more than the King who left to grab a drink.
☪ xxxx"...times won't always be like this. But I guess it's the moments that you take the time to truly cherish when there is peace that takes your breath away..." Stating to himself casually while continuing to observe these people who were overjoyed and found happiness.
❉xxBrought to his attention about something really important, Xenon turned to Eli who was concerned or at least stated to be. His facial expressions didn't show it but Xenon had guessed it was best to do that to keep attention away from those who didn't need to hear it. He placed his cup of drink down before turning back to him. "Troubling? Is everything alright...?" He was about to continue asking but it dawned upon him quickly that if he even tried, he would barely hear anything due to the music, looking around to see if anyone was watching, he nudged his head over.
❉xxLeading the King outside to the courtyard, he addressed his friend who seemed to be feeling concerned. "What's troubling you my brother? Did you discover something during the wedding? Or is something going on in Valaria?" Giving out his own concern now, hoping it was not as troubling as Xenon is making it out to be.

Eli Whitestone
When they reached the courtyard Eli walked a few steps away from Xenon and looked around to ensure privacy. He reached out with his ki and created a barrier to prevent anyone from looking in on them. The barrier would be shown by a circle of blue fire that erupted around the duo. "Stay within the flames or others will be able to hear." Eli advised before folding his hands behind his back. He didn't know how to start because he did not want to follow in his father's example. It seemed that problems everywhere began with a numbered at war with a leader of the Zaibatsu. Still, Xenon's betrayal was one that could arguably be considered genocidal. "There was a time when I could snap my fingers and any problem we faced would simply cease to exist. Well it was never really that simple but as far as you or anyone else knew that was all the work it required. You convinced me to give up that power. You convinced me that I could better protect the world if no one could bend the rules of space and time. So I made it that way. I altered the very reality we exist in so that my people, my family, would stay dead." It was only as the end that Eli's anger would be hear. It was an unnerving sound that would have made most men retreat. When it showed, his voice took on this sort of echoing quality that sounded almost as if there were two other, deeper and more frightening, voices speaking with him. "Now it seems I did not go far enough. Tell me, brother, what would you do if you discovered that your allies had conspired against you? What would you do if your friends convinced you to commit genocide because they believed it would make the universe safer? And what if after they made you do it, you discovered that they were hoarding superweapons?"

❖❖"I couldn't agree more. Though it isn't like you to get all soft when it comes to words. Didn't think ol' Derek as an aspiring poet."❖❖
❖❖Following the complete fallout from the debacle Lacie entangled herself in, Kouen could do little else but watch in shock. While frustration had been mounting for several minutes, it was another matter entirely to directly insult one of the three emperors. In a strange way, the Adonis found fear gripping his heart instead of the rush of exhilaration he'd been expecting. Tensing up, his body prepared to intervene should things escalate too quickly and a battle ended up breaking out. Regardless of who or what threatened Princess Mirai, he wouldn't let any of them lay a finger on her. However, as luck would have it, things were notched back into control once Lord Xenon and his wife-to-be finally spoke, their words resonating within the room full of citizens and warriors alike. Following this, the reception filled the halls with merriment and laughter as others sought to properly celebrate the union of their rulers. Many danced or sang with their loved ones, while others opted to visit the refreshments to parch their taste for alcohol. The buzz of excitement resonated with Kouen, filling him with a warmth that he found difficult to describe. 'This is it,' he thought. 'This is what I signed up to protect. Their smiles and laughter...it's all I need.' Slicking one hand into his pocket as he wandered about, he lost track of his date for the evening for the time being. Probably off teasing one of their friends or letting James persuade her into pulling some pranks of the more mischievous nature.Catching up with her to see how she was doing later would be the goal, but someone else caught the phoenix's eye for the time being. Leaning against the wall several inches from his fellow soldier, the Adonis slipped his hand up from his pocket in order to cross his arms. A smirk etched itself onto his lips, though his gaze remained focused on the dance floor close to them. ❖❖
❖❖"Chaotic way for us to get here. No two ways about it, huh? Our little doting princess has a fire hotter than the blazing sun. Won't back down at the sign of trouble, no matter how great. But it's moments like these that make it all worth it. This is why we fight. This is why we bleed."❖❖
❖❖ Pausing for a brief moment as the pair absorbed the silence between them, it felt strangely comforting. Normally, Kouen would be one of those people on the dance floor. Raising all sorts of hell and laughing merrily as he encouraged his friends to bust a move. But something held him back this time. It almost felt like something had changed entirely, where this was the last piece of celebration they would all be receiving for a while.❖❖
❖❖"Indulge me for a moment, Derek. Be honest with me. Your thoughts on that nefarious king; King Abryon. Something about him doesn't sit right with me. You can sense it too, can't you? During his little tantrum back when Lacie confronted him, he spoke something about a 'darkness' inside of her. A demon...? There were several other things that he spoke of that I couldn't interpret, but the way that confrontation played out? He's dangerous, but not in only in the physical sense. His deep knowledge seems to contain things that haven't seen the light of the day. A dark piece of history that even Lord Xenon didn't directly address, though the timing was less than ideal. It's just a hunch, but..."❖❖

☪ xxxx"...Hm? I read it in a book several weeks ago... Seemed appropriate for this level of atmosphere." For the Rising Phoenix to appear beside him and leaned to the wall himself instead of being on the dance floor, which is normally his forte as he was always a one who get over quickly with the crowd. Though it didn't bring enough care for it to be mentioned. Odd yet assuaging for them both to just be by each other calmly instead of their notable bickering back and forth. Time and time passing forth shortly, Derek taking in more of his drink the pacing of the dancing had yet to waiver.
☪ xxxx"Indulge me for a moment, Derek." His eyes traced over to the Phoenix, providing the acknowledgment in what he was prepared to hear. In more on his own personal thoughts to the King of Noskium. His presence, his very being and his 'heartfelt' speech that lit a spark in the daughter of their King. But he was also asked about some form of 'darkness' inside of Lacie and other things he spoke about that didn't seem outright with Kouen and to be fair, he had every reason to feel this way. Even Derek himself had his own share of questions but the thing that stood out the most for him at the time was when he referred to the demon inside of Lacie, mainly due to the incident where Derek remembered how she swiftly changed how she acted when they were all sitting at the table. It was though as if at that moment he was talking to a whole different person other than the Lacie he had known. It did bring a questionable pause to Derek's conscious. Taking another sip before looking back at the crowd then back to Kouen. "King Abryon really embodies how Noskium has been perceived to be for quite some time. Dark and Mysterious yet still have that captivating vibe about them. Also, he's known to be vastly swift and sharp with the tongue he posses, speaking a plain sentence but utilizing his words to grasp hold of attention and bend it to his will, so don't take it too close to the chest...although. Lacie... It's more of a reach at this point, but I think it'd be wise to start opening a keen eye to the actions of princess...I wouldn't call it a demon per say, but something rather 'off' with her."
☪ xxxxWithout the intention of raising Kouen's curiosity too much, Derek stated what he needed to say. But if anyone who was going to be spending the most besides her immediate family...it would be him. "That Lacie that we saw today...didn't really look like the Lacie we know. You saw how she reacted straight off emotion without any kind of thought behind it during the ceremony." Dropping it there, King Abryon suddenly came back to his mind and the thought of the idea that he would have access to certain knowledge that even Lord Xenon would not address is something to be curious about, but with the length span of how much they've known each other. It wouldn't surprise him if he did.

================ ☩ ==================
Abryon watched as the wedding proceeded, all the while mulling over the queen's words. Their resonances irritated him. When the reception came, he watched as Eli & Xenon slipped away, following suit. Seeing the barrier up Abryon figured that something was happening that even he need not be witness too. Though he didnt have to see it to feel it. Someone in that barrier was frightfully enraged. Now a normal person would feel this malice an be terrified, but Abryon was anything but scared, in fact he was beside himself with excitement. He could help but wonder which one of those noble rulers, figures of peace & justice, was overflowing, practically oozing with rage. As much as he wanted to see the end result, he decided it be best to give their bromance their privacy. Instead he found himself meandering around the reception hall. Two distinct auras stuck out to him. Walking up to the young men, he bowed. Two strapping young warriors of the Zaibatsu standing alone with no female pining for a dance, how odd? The Silver Diviner & Fledgling Phoenix. Tell me boys, do you like it here under Xenon's rule? Do you wholeheartedly trust him? He inquired, with a gaze that was as if he was looking into their very souls. It had an air of charm, yet a predator ready to strike at a moments notice.
❉xxConfused. Puzzled. Concerned. These feelings came to rise when the blue flame area appeared around them both keeping them inside so no one can have any audio window to hear what was about to transpire. With absolutely no clue as to what in actuality is going on but with Eli...you just never really know.
❉xxGetting a recap of history of Eli and his powers along with his family. Referring to how reality had been warped where his family would stay dead. But of course it was meant to keep the balance. "That was the whole point of that Eli, we already discussed that. I do not see how this pertains to anything? You've yet gone to the point of this whole situation." Looking straight at Eli who asked again what he would've done if his allies had conspired against him. Committing genocide to only discover they're hoarding superweapons. "Eleven. What happened? What is this super weapon thats apparently being hoarded? You're not making any sense." Xenon couldn't understand what made Eleven so angry. He was fine earlier before and during the ceremony. Now all of a sudden, someone is hoarding super weapons...? Xenon needed answers now. "Explain this super weapon and what about it makes it so powerful that it made you question the acts of what we've done in the past to establish a proper balance? I can't help until you tell me what is going on."

As Xenon responded, Eli's anger grew. The man seemed to be playing stupid but Eli could sense he really had no idea what he was talking about. Eli didn't know what upset him more. Xenon not knowing or the possibility that Xenon had learned to deceive him. He would have to make his point more clear. Eli took a deep breath and then waved his hand to dismiss the metaphor. "Disregard the super weapons. It was a metaphor. Allow me to be more blunt." Eli paused and took a step towards Xenon. "Your wife. You should have told me." Eli planted his left hand on Xenon's shoulder. At first it was friendly but he grip quickly tightened on his friend's shoulder, holding the man in place. "You have one chance to explain it to me now. You were the one who convinced me to kill my people. So why would would hide her from me?" Xenon was likely perceptive enough to notice that Eli's hands had begun to radiate a sort of black light. The bubble would hide a lot of things from the party.

❖❖Nodding, Kouen found himself agreeing with his silver-haired companion on the topic of their doting little princess. Despite Lacie's kind heart and gentle disposition, the hints of something looming just underneath of the surface made the phoenix uneasy. It should've been a preposterous idea, right? Something straight out of a horror movie; the novelty taking a turn toward the bizarre the more he pondered it. Yet, in the same strange sense, both men noticed small snippets of something buried deep within her subconscious. A dark power that tapped into the realms of the unknown, as Kouen found himself remembering the brief moment on the dance floor earlier. The anger that reflected in those beautiful pupils that he found himself gazing into countless times was unsettling. Frowning, the idea of something like that wasn't exactly pleasant. Whatever Abryon said about her must've been wrong. A mere faucet of his rage that boiled and bleed onto the surface; a red herring that alluded to nothing beyond a desire to manipulate those within the audience. Yet, the emotion in his tone...if there was one thing that Kouen learned on the battlefield, it was that true pain couldn't be forced. Soldiers who stepped into the valley of hell couldn't feign the horrors from walking the bloody path. The whole situation surrounding the sequence of events remained murky and that frustrated him. Information was a powerful weapon and knowing that he neither knew the circumstances surrounding Lacie nor about what the nefarious ruler possessed? It left too many blank slates that Kouen couldn't be satisfied with letting go.❖❖
❖❖"You make an excellent point. I'm aware that Abryon is skilled with his words, especially when it comes to manipulation. Casting doubts and raising suspicion is something he specializes in. But what makes an effective manipulator is their ability to do so without the use of lies to cover their tracks. That's whats buggin' me about this whole thing. He mentioned his piece about Lacie being a bit unstable and such, yet it played precisely into how he wanted it to. Whether that was a bluff to make the Mirai family look unstable and foolish...or he's onto something. I'll keep an eye on her for sure, but I'm just saying we should be careful on--"❖❖
❖❖Before he could continue, the sight of the very man who sought to make the evening fairly troublesome caught Kouen's attention. Narrowing his eyes slightly as Lord of Noskium himself politely addressed the pair, the phoenix did a good job of masking his distaste. Regardless of his personal opinion, Abryon was still one of the three commanding superpowers within their world and wielded the strongest militia in the world - rivaled only by the Zaibatsu and Valaria. It was their responsibility to give a proper image of their workforce for the others to follow, though just the sight of this man gave the soldier a bitter taste. Was it irritation? Hunger? Desire? Perhaps a mixture of all three and more, if he was being honest with himself. This snake held secrets that even Lord Xenon wouldn't release out into the world and didn't seem too keen on hoarding them to himself. But every piece of hidden knowledge held a price of learning it. Shaking these thoughts from his mind entirely, the Adonis returned the polite gesture with his own introductory bow before speaking calmly. While he did his best to muster a smile, one wouldn't come to him. His eyes bore into the other with an expression that was hard to place. Caution, perhaps? ❖❖
❖❖"We figured that offering the other bachelors a chance would be most fitting, Lord Abryon. Though I must say, if we're going to speak about alluring women, did you have to give my date such a terrible scare? Fiery as she is, getting her scolded by her father was a bit much."❖❖
❖❖Humor had always been his best asset when it came to diffusing things, whether it be his own anger or the intensity of others. Feeling a smile begin to come to him at last, Kouen didn't like the way the ruler was staring them down. His gaze danced over their features like a panther searching for a sliver of weakness; scanning for the slightest movement that declared themselves open for him to pounce. This man was skilled, no doubt about it. The clever b*****d even made sure that the trio were somewhat isolated from the rest of the party, ensuring little interference from anyone noteworthy who could overhear. After all, what secrets would be paid attention to in a room full of party-goers and delightful, celebrating citizens? Despite these thoughts, the Adonis remained level-headed as he continued.❖❖
❖❖"Forgive me for being direct, Lord Abryon. But isn't it a little bold to directly ask such a disrespectful inquisition? To serve a king without holding the utmost respect for the one who leads you would be a blight on the Mirai name and a disservice to our title as soldiers. I doubt any warrior worth his salt would knowingly bend his knee to a monarch without maintaining a commanding trust. Engaging with the enemy while on the field of battle without that would be suicide. While I cannot completely speak for my friend, I doubt either of us would've remained here this long if we hated our conditions."❖❖

☪ xxxx"No matter what it is, will definitely need some more looking into." Listening to Kouen's bit about Abryon. The sword of the tongue can be just as sharp and even more effective than any technique dished out on the battlefield. It all brought out but one word to his mind..."Persuasion. A necessary skill that is dangerous on and off the battlefield." Seemingly on cue, the man of topic approached forward to both Kouen and himself and gave a polite bow before asking about not being on the dance floor. Which of course gave Kouen the sly opportunity to sneak in a humorous comeback.
☪ xxxxAs he would give a smirk to even a smile, Derek only kept a casual yet cold face gauging the man. Locking eyes with one another, he could feel as if he had built up a wall but with him on the other side and resting the palm of his hand on it, forcing the wall to slowly crack. Such presence an average person couldn't possibly fathom. "That was quite the performance you put on during the ceremony Lord. You sure made yourself almost the main act while developing the stage for someone else to take center and almost give themselves a false face to the general public. Surely something as notable as such would've taken quite a bit to master." Speaking in regards to the entire situation with Lacie before turning his head away for a brief second.
☪ xxxxUnable to keep full contact with him due to something that he possessed that was alluring to Derek. It's almost as if he could see visible faint leaks of darkness spawn from his entire being, it forced something inside his own being to react to it like two magnets forcing itself to attach yet being constrained away at each given moment. He turned himself back when he asked how they felt towards the leadership of Lord Xenon. Such a question should be even asked? "Being the King means a lot more to us soldiers than simply carrying the burden as the leader. The term trust becomes more personal as we become more as an extension of him and our region. Which in turn gives up the benefit of growing more as one through such trust. As soldiers under the guidance we are proud seeds of the tree that was established and sown by the footsteps of the King." Given each soldier's personal reasons to follow a King like Xenon, Derek knew for himself especially along with what he's known from Kouen, Lord Xenon even took that guidance and leadership a step forward into even carrying the burden as father figure to them both. He couldn't speak much for Kouen for he was not Kouen, but because of this Derek had nothing but his share of trust for the man who claimed the throne as King.
❉xxFeeling the hand itself land on his shoulder with grip to keep in him place. Xenon's eyes widened at the statement of his very own wife. "Lafolia? A numbered...?" Spotting the black light that radiated off his hand, Xenon's kinetic energy took a shot in rising itself, enough to push the hand away. Now becoming frustrated and baffled at what he's hearing. "You cannot expect me to believe that my own wife is a member of your family. It doesn't make any sense how this would come up to be, I could've...YOU should've figured it out earlier." Pacing around in the bubble, trying to make some sense. "It can't be true, how'd you come to this conclusion so abruptly and why now?! If she truly is what you state her to be, then wouldn't you have picked up a faint sense of energy within her? Number's have their own scent of recognizing each other don't they?!"

☩ . . . "Im the Basilisk of the endless void, need I say more?" . . .☩
================ ☩ ==================
Both boys demeanor and answer make the Noskium King laugh. Such naivety was rather refreshing for him. It kept them honest. The Fledgling, trying his best to deflect his true feelings against Abryon was amusing, thinking he could hide that delicious hint of hate for Abryon. It stirred something in Abryon. Since the Phoenix spoke first, Abryon put his full attention on him first. She is alluring isnt she....He said taking a moment to peer in the princess' general direction. He continued, though his gaze remained on Lacie, as a black viper found its way around Abryon's arm. But its not her spitfire attitude that make her so deliciously interesting. She has something dormant in her. All souls have it, some choose not to acknowledge theirs and strive to live moral lives, not wanting to give in to the truth in their hearts which is that they are dark creatures. But that is for normal beings, the princess is something different, something special. Its as if something of malicious & evil origin has bonded to her very being. He said, his piercing gaze boring into the tan skinned male You've noticed it havent you? She goes from being a peaceful, graceful butterfly floating in the wind and then just like that.... He said snapping his fingers. She becomes a destructive maelstrom obliterating all before her. He said now turning to the silver haired male. You call my interjection an act. And its not hard to be the center of attention when the masses see you as a spectacle to be watched. Xenon has painted an image of Noskium and all im doing is living up to his expectations. What I spoke to your new queen was truth, but its a truth that has long since been forgotten, all for the sake of peace. Xenon has a habit of sugar coating reality in order to maintain balance. Sometimes we need some turbulence in order to find new growth in ourselves. You know this well dont you.? An itch to go against what you were taught and delve into the forbidden, but i doubt you could handle the darkness, it would eat you alive and break you. Its why you look away, my very pressence naws at something deep in you boy doesnt it? It whispers "Let me out so i can play", but you seem to have restraint, though im curious to see how long it lasts. He said as a rather annoyed expression painted his face, then one of realization that he may have said more than he should. You Usken sheep see me, see my kingdom as a nation of villainous elements. Its both empowering and insulting, but ultimately misplaced. I simply play the part entrusted to me, and i do a damn good job of it is all. I invite you both to see Noskium for yourself, with your own eyes one day. He said downing his 80th bottle of whiskey.
When both boys gave their answer on whether they trusted Xenon, he collected his thoughts, but first he would deal with what ever was itching in this phoenix. Before I answer you both I want to address you fledgling. He said, his gaze locked on the young man. It will take more than a blind sheep such as yourself to offend me, so be as direct as you wish. Have the balls to come right out with your anger, its not as if i take joy in slaughtering children anyway. I sensed your disdain, along with everyone else in this room. Your's however has been poking at the back of my mind since this shindig began. Never be afraid to tell someone how you feel, your dear princess sure didnt.................but you see how that backfired on her. He said with a hearty chuckle, cracking open another bottle, his gaze falling them both now as he looked between the two. As to the question at hand, no i dont find it disrespectful. No one should follow blindly, it only ends with you dying like an ignorant dog for someone you barely know. Trust is also a two way street boys, as you must have faith in your king, your king must have faith in you. This means never hiding the truth from you. Before i send warriors on missions, i tell them whether they will return home to see another day or not. Sometimes they dont come home, sometimes they do. Some even return from missions that had a success rate of 5% or below, and some never return on missions a 2 year old can handle. In short boys Im telling you to question your king, nothing is on a need to know bases. He said setting the bottle down on a nearby table, looking at them with what one would call a concerned expression. Contrary to whatever perception you have of me, i find you two very intriguing, and because of my intrigue i cant help but be concerned for your well being. He said looking back at the hall full of guests, then looking back at the boys. Well ive rambled on for years on end, anything you boys wish to ask, get off your chest. Not everyday you get to pick the brain of a foreign lord. I know things even Eli isnt privy to.
