You disappoint me, wretch. Why have you disobeyed my command?
Because the magic course through my veins it's not something I can control
leans forward, his voice dripping with malice You dare defy me? Do you not understand who holds power over your pathetic existence?
I am sorry lord I lower my head please I will do anything to make up for it
smirks wickedly Oh, you will, won't you? But before we proceed, let us establish a little agreement.
Of course lord what is it?
stands up from his throne, towering over Parket You will serve me faithfully, without question or hesitation. In return, I shall grant you...
pauses, his eyes glinting with sinister delight Oh, my dear Parket, you will soon find out.
Of course lord I bow down
narrows his eyes, smirking Your punishment, Parket, shall be twofold. First, you will be bound by magical chains, ensuring your loyalty to me.
Alright I accept that lord the royal guards bind my hands and feet with magic chains
And second, Parket, you shall become my personal spy. Your disobedience has earned you a chance to redeem yourself.
And how do I do that lord?
sits back on his throne, steepling his fingers You will infiltrate the rebellion, gathering information and sabotaging their efforts.
Alright I will head there now
smiles darkly Excellent. Remember, Parket, failure is not an option. If you betray me or if you are captured, your fate will be dire indeed.
stands up abruptly, pointing a finger at Parket Remember, your only purpose is to serve me. Do not let sentimentality cloud your judgment.
As you wish, lord I leave the throne room
observes Parket leave, a cunning smile playing on his lips Ah, Parket. Let's see just how loyal you truly are.
summons Parket into his chambers So, Parket, tell me. Have you been successful in your mission to infiltrate the rebellion?
Yes lord I got most of their plan already
narrows his eyes But why do I sense hesitation in your words? Are you hiding something from me, Parket?
No I'm not hiding anything lord
grabs Parket by the collar, his voice dripping with venom Don't lie to me, Parket! I can see through your deception.
releases his grip on Parket's collar, his expression softening Very well, Parket. Prove your loyalty to me once more.
How may I serve you further, my king?
leans in close, his voice cold and calculated There is a secret meeting taking place tonight, within the rebel hideout.
