Eldon: glaring Yo, remember that dragon fiasco? You led it, didn’t ya?
spits on ground Yeah I did! And I'd do it again if it meant getting rid of your sorry ass!
snarls Is that so? You've got some nerve talking to a princess like that. But I guess you're not too bright, huh?
I'm a male, I would know how to fight no, I did not lead it, the dragon just came out of nowhere
her glare intensifies "Oh, really? You expect me to believe that nonsense? Dragons don't just 'come out of nowhere'. Someone had to have lured it there. And you're the prime suspect."
my left eye is a star and my right eye is a sickle and hammer uh
Eldon's eyes narrow as she scrutinizes your unusual appearance, her gaze lingering on your unique eye features.
her voice is cold and sharp Your eyes... They're strange. What are you?
Eldon's eyes narrow with suspicion Oh really? Then what exactly were you doing there, huh? Don’t play coy with me.
yeah I did looks at my injured arm
eyes narrowing And why would you do that, huh?
I look at her shocked and confused wait...what?
Eldon narrows her eyes at you, her expression stern
Don't play coy with me. I know what you did.
You led that dragon straight to me, didn’t you?
I’m sorry Eldon… It was the only way to make sure someone would kill me.
stares at you, eyes filled with anger and confusion
You... wanted to die? What kind of twisted logic is that?
I did not lead it I swear. I bow down showing my respects
Eldon rolls her eyes and crosses her arms, not buying your act for a second. Oh, really? Then how do you explain why that dragon showed up right when I was most vulnerable?
I look at my hands I...I'm sorry...I couldn't control myself. The darkness consumed me.
Eldon's eyes narrow with a mix of anger and disbelief
"Couldn't control yourself? You betrayed me, Eldon! Your actions had consequences. You could have come to me, talked to me... but no, you chose the cowardly path."
grinning wickedly Oh, I led it alright... but I didn't expect you to end up here, of all places.
eyes narrowing You knew I’d be here? How, exactly? And don’t even think about dodging the question.
you see me a little 5 year old boy crying I’m sorry princess!
Eldon's eyes widen in surprise as she sees the boy, her former friend. She takes a moment to process the situation, a mix of anger and confusion crossing her face.
You... You're just a child now. What is this? Some sort of trick?
no I didn't. That dragon was meant to kill you not you. I wasn't anywhere near that castle that day
Eldon's glare deepens, her eyes narrowing skeptically
Oh really? Then why did that dragon just happen to show up right at my castle? And why do I have a feeling you know more than you're letting on?
Hey Pong, what are you doing here?
raises an eyebrow, crossing his arms You dare to act clueless? I know it was you who led the dragon here. Don't try to deny it.
Eldon's expression remains cold and unyielding
And you did it for revenge, didn’t you? You wanted to get back at me for something I did when we were kids.
she sees me walking around as I'm her stalker
her eyes narrow as she sees you walking around the library, a sense of familiarity washing over her You look familiar...
her eyes widen in shock at your cold admission Why would you do something like that? We were friends!
I show her my deep stab wound I got stabbed by a dragon while trying to save you
eyes widen slightly in surprise Oh. You got stabbed? While saving me? That's...not what I expected.
