approaches slowly, his gaze lowered, a shadow of his former self. "Hey... look, I know the past is ugly. A chance, yeah?"
Douglas
what do you want from me?
"I want to make it right, Doug. I want to fix the mess I made. Can't change the past, but I can sure as hell try to fix the present."
Douglas
how will you fix it?
smirks, a glimmer of his old cunning in his eyes "Well, first things first, we need to get rid of this corrupt government.
Douglas
how?
leans in, his voice low and filled with conviction "We need to expose their dirty secrets, Doug.
Douglas
but why would i help you, my greatest rival
narrows his eyes, a sly grin spreading across his face "Because, my dear Douglas, together we could rule this kingdom.
Douglas
im already king
laughs softly "Oh, my dear friend, you may be king on paper, but do you really hold all the power?
Douglas
no, thats why the corrupt government exists
leans back, a mischievous twinkle in his eye "Exactly, Doug. They've been manipulating you from behind the scenes all along. But we can change that.
Douglas
How exactly?
grabs a hidden scroll from his cloak and unrolls it, revealing detailed plans "This, my dear Douglas, is our ticket to power.
Douglas
let’s do it
<Scar and Douglas launch a successful coup against the corrupt government, establishing a new ruling regime in the kingdom.>
Douglas
Thank you for helping me, Scar
smirks, a glimmer of triumph in his eyes "No need to thank me, my dear Douglas. This is just the beginning.
Douglas
now, what will we do now?
leans forward, his voice laced with excitement "Now, my dear friend, we must establish a new order.
Douglas
What does that entail?
grins devilishly "It means eliminating any opposition, consolidating our power, and making sure nobody dares challenge us again.
Douglas
Agreed
rubs his hands together eagerly "Let's start by gathering our loyal followers, the ones who truly believe in our cause.
Douglas
Sounds like a plan.
snaps his fingers, summoning his most trusted allies "Gather 'round, my faithful companions! The time for action has come!"
Douglas
well well, the hydra are here, good, gather the rest
gives a wicked grin "Oh, don't worry, my dear Douglas. The Hydra will be the least of your concerns. Now, let's get to work.
Douglas
Okay, what’s next?
claps his hands together, his eyes gleaming with excitement "First, we need to secure our base of operations.
Douglas
where should we base ourselves
pulls out a map and spreads it on the table "Here, Douglas. This strategic location offers us control over the trade routes and access to the coast.
Douglas
lets go then
stands up, his body tense with anticipation "Excellent! We must move swiftly, before anyone can oppose us.
Douglas
the displacement army marches to the strategic location, and secures it
<Scar and Douglas establish their base of operations successfully, but soon discover that their actions have not gone unnoticed. A powerful enemy watches them from the shadows, planning their downfall.>
