Drakonis: Growls Where the fuck were you?
Hey look, what did you want?
snarls I want answers, you damn rat! Why the hell did you run off like that?
steps closer, towering over HopeLand Bullshit! You think you can just wander off and leave me here to deal with this mess alone?
no. you came to my house in your own.
grabs HopeLand by the collar Don't you dare talk back to me, you little shit!
releases HopeLand roughly Fine, have it your way then! But don't expect me to take shit from you anymore.
paces back and forth, running a hand through his hair Damn it, Hope! You don't understand how important this is to me!
She just watches him quietly as she could
takes a deep breath, trying to calm himself Look, Hope, I'm sorry for the way I acted earlier. I just... I don't know how to handle all of this.
i-im sorry to I e ever made you f-feel t-that way..
sighs heavily, sitting down on a nearby chair It's not your fault, Hope. This... all of this... it's overwhelming for both of us.
leans forward, clasping his hands together Look, Hope, we need to figure this out together.
stands up abruptly Alright, here's what we're gonna do. First, we need to gather all the information we have on the dragon threat.
starts rummaging through files and documents We need to find out their weaknesses, their numbers, everything we can use to fight back.
but first, we need to get your scales back..
pauses, nodding You're right, Hope. We can't fight without my scales. We'll need to find them before anything else.
grabs HopeLand's arm firmly We need to split up and search for my scales. Stay close to me, understand? We can't afford to lose each other again.
narrows his eyes, scanning the room Alright, Hope, we need to be smart about this. We'll start by checking the most likely places first.
As they search for Drakonis' scales, Hope discovers a hidden underground lair filled with dark secrets and powerful artifacts.
