Anger flashes in the monster’s eyes. “You will regret this Clifford, I will never forget that you did not trust me. Let us just pray you never need my assistance.”
“Now, now Diaglo, No need to get any uglier then your wife has made you.”
His eyes flash with annoyance. He snaps his fingers and disappears. His time delay spell falls and the knight scowls. “Lyra when did you get here?”
“Oh I have been here.”
“You will not stop us from taking the boy.”
“Now Raldin, you know better than that.” Her green eyes flash and your world dissolves around you.
When you vision clears you find yourself standing before your King.
But you take a step back, his eyes have never been gold before. He stands from his throne, “Clifford, we have had some unexpected events come up. Are you ready to pair with your armor now?”
You look at your King and something feels wrong, very very wrong. You swallow hard and consider your choices. “Must I take it?”
He laughs, You always have a choice, I will never take your choices away from you.” His voice drops low, “Just remember, you can not choose your consequences. Those are chosen for us by our choices.”
Why was the army looking specifically for me? What significance do I have to them?
